Inclusion Criteria

  • Diagnosis of anemia of chronic kidney disease (CKD)
  • Diagnosis of non-dialysis-dependent (NDD) CKD with an estimated glomerular filtration rate of greater than (>) 10 and less than (<) 60 milliliters/minute/1.73 meters^2 (mL/min/1.73 m^2 ) or diagnosis of dialysis dependent (DD) CKD

  • Red Blood Cells transfusion within 4 weeks
  • Serum albumin level <2.5 g/dL
  • Uncontrolled hypertension
  • Active malignancy or treatment for malignancy within the past 2 years prior to Screening
  • Evidence of iron overload or diagnosis of hemochromatosis
  • Known hypersensitivity to vadadustat or any excipients in vadadustat tablet

  • Terminal Elimination Half-Life (t1/2) of Vadadustat and its Metabolites(Pre-dose and post-dose at intermediate time points up to 28 weeks)
  • Change From Baseline in Serum Erythropoietin (EPO)(Pre-dose and post-dose at intermediate time points up to 28 weeks)
  • Change From Baseline in Reticulocyte Count(Pre-dose and post-dose at intermediate time points up to 28 weeks)
