Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The primary objective of the trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of once daily (QD) dosing of vadadustat for the treatment of pediatric subjects with anemia of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) after conversion from an ESA.;Secondary Objective: The secondary objective of the trial is to assess the Pharmacokinetics (PK) and Pharmacodynamics (PD) of vadadustat administered QD dosing in pediatric subjects with anemia of CKD;Primary end point(s): Efficacy endpoints: Mean change in Hb values between Baseline (average pretreatment Hb) and the Primary Evaluation Period (average Hb from Weeks 21 to 28) ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Efficacy timepoints : Weeks 21 to 28 inclusive

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Efficacy endpoints : *Time to achieve Hb =10.0 g/dL *Proportion of subjects with mean Hb values within the target (=10.0 to <12.0 g/dL) during the Primary Evaluation Period (Weeks 21 to 28) *Proportion of subjects with mean Hb values within the target (=10.0 to <12.0 g/dL) during the Extension Period (Weeks 29 to 52) Safety and Tolerability endpoints: *Frequency and severity of AEs, SAEs, and discontinuation from the study due to AEs *Clinically significant changes from Baseline on vital signs, body weight, height, clinical laboratory tests (hematology, serum chemistry, iron indices), and ECG *Adrenal function assessed by adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) stimulation testing and/or morning (AM) cortisol levels PK/PD endpoints: *Determination of plasma concentrations of vadadustat and metabolites for estimation of PK parameters. A population PK (POPPK) model may be constructed and, if so, reported separately. *Changes in serum EPO, reticulocyte count, and Hb as indices of HIF activity Exploratory endpoints: *Mean change from Baseline to Primary Evaluation Period and End of Treatment (EOT) Visit or Early Termination (ET) Visit in Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory™ (PedsQL) 4.0 Generic Core scores for all subjects and/or parent/legal guardian and for PedsQL 3.0 endstage renal disease (ESRD) Module scores in dialysis subjects and/or parent/legal guardian *Change in biomarkers hepcidin and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Efficacy endpoints : Weeks 21 to weeks 52 inclusive
