About this study

Official title: Observational Cohort Study in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients on Dialysis Initiating Treatment With Mircera During the Correction and Maintenance Phase

This observational study will evaluate the course of treatment, the efficacy on anemia and the safety of Mircera (methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta) in patients with chronic kidney disease on dialysis. Eligible patients will be on either haemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis and treatment-naïve for or having had prior therapy with erythropoiesis stimulating agents (ESA). Data will be collected from each patient for 12 months.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Haemoglobin levels

    Measured: Month 6

  2. Mircera therapy (dosage, schedule, mode of application) in the treatment of anemia in clinical practice

    Measured: Month 6

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change in haemoglobin/haematocrit

    Measured: from baseline to Month 12

  2. Biological parameters of anemia: transferrin saturation, serum ferritin, folates

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Efficacy of dialysis (Kt/V, urea levels)

    Measured: 12 months

  4. Safety: Incidence of adverse events

    Measured: 12 months

  5. Compliance (treatment modification or discontinuation)

    Measured: 12 months

  6. Quality of life: Short Form (SF-36) questionnaire

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Anemia, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Nov 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Haemoglobin levels (time frame: Month 6). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Nov 2016.
