Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Multiple Roxadustat Dosing Regimens for the Treatment of Anemia in Dialysis Participants With Chronic Kidney Disease
- Registration Number
- NCT04059913
- Lead Sponsor
- FibroGen
- Brief Summary
This is a randomized, open-label, multi-center study in dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) participants to evaluate the efficacy and relative safety of different dosing regimens of roxadustat over a 36-week treatment period.
There are 3 study periods:
* Screening Period (up to 4 weeks)
* Treatment Period (36 weeks)
Part 1: Correction/Conversion Period (Weeks 1-20)
Part 2: Hemoglobin (Hb) Maintenance Period (Weeks 21-36)
* Follow-up Period (4 weeks)
- Detailed Description
Approximately 102 erythropoiesis stimulating agents (ESA)-naïve participants and 204 ESA-treated participants will be enrolled and randomized respectively in a 1:1 ratio to receive roxadustat at one of 2 starting doses as below:
* Low weight-based dosing: 70 milligrams (mg) 3 times a week (TIW) for body weight \<60 kilograms (kg) or 100 mg TIW for body weight ≥60 kg
* Standard weight-based dosing: 100 mg TIW for body weight \<60 kg or 120 mg TIW for body weight ≥60 kg
After 20 weeks of treatment, all eligible participants whose last 2 Hb levels ≥105 grams (g)/liter (L) and change in Hb over the most recent 4 weeks is \> - 10 g/L will switch to receive roxadustat for another 16 weeks to evaluate the efficacy and safety of new dosing regimens.
At the end of Week 36, all participants will discontinue roxadustat and enter a 4-week Follow-up Period.

Group Intervention Description Part 1: ESA-Naïve Participants - Low Weight Based Dosing Roxadustat ESA-naïve participants will receive roxadustat 70 mg TIW for body weight 45 to \<60 kg or 100 mg TIW for body weight ≥60 kg. Part 1: ESA-Naïve Participants - Standard Weight Based Dosing Roxadustat ESA naïve participants will receive roxadustat 100 mg TIW for body weight 45 to \<60 kg or 120 mg TIW for body weight ≥60 kg. Part 1: ESA-Treated Participants - Low Weight Based Dosing Roxadustat ESA-treated participants will receive roxadustat 70 mg TIW for body weight 45 to \<60 kg or 100 mg TIW for body weight ≥60 kg. Part 2: Roxadustat QW Roxadustat Participants will receive roxadustat once a week (QW). Roxadustat dose will be 2-dose step increase from originally planned week 21 TIW per dose amount. Part 1: ESA-Treated Participants - Standard Weight Based Dosing Roxadustat ESA treated participants will receive roxadustat 100 mg TIW for body weight 45 to \<60 kg or 120 mg TIW for body weight ≥60 kg. Part 2: Roxadustat BIW Roxadustat Participants will receive roxadustat twice a week (BIW). Roxadustat dose will be 1-dose step increase from originally planned week 21 TIW per dose amount. Part 2: Roxadustat TIW Roxadustat Participants will receive roxadustat TIW. Roxadustat dose will continue per dose adjustment guideline.
