About this study
Official title: Different Doses of Roxadustat Treatment on Hemoglobin Target-met in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
A multi-center, randomized, controlled study to evaluate the effect of different doses of roxadustate on hemoglobin target-met in peritoneal dialysis patients
Read the detailed description
Roxadustat is an orally hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor (HIF-PHI) to promote erythropoiesis on patients with chronic kidney disease. Two phase 3 clinical trials have verified the efficacy and safety of roxadustate as therapy for anemia in patients with CKD and undergoing dialysis. A high increasing rate of Hb or Hb overshooting triggered by roxadustat need dosing reduction or even drug withdrawal, possibly leading to a large Hb variation and adverse subsequences. Therefore, we were of interest to investigate whether a lower starting dose of roxadustat could achieve comparable Hb target at week 12 while lowering the risk for Hb over 130g/L through a prospective peritoneal dialysis (PD) cohort. Peritoneal dialysis patients diagnosed with renal anemia will be divided into standard roxadustat dosage group and lower roxadustat dosage group. After 12 weeks, we will compare the target-met, overshooting and variation ratio of hemoglobin between these two groups.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing Roxadustat in people with Renal Anemia, run by Peking University First Hospital at 1 site in China.
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 7 inclusion and 7 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 26 Nov 2021. 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 China. 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.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
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?
The ratio of hemoglobin achieving the target (115g/L) (time frame: 12 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04454879, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 26 Nov 2021.
