Outcome results

Primary

Percentage of Participants Who Achieved a 3-month Hemoglobin Level Stabilization in the Range of 11-12 Grams Per Deciliter (g/dL)

Hemoglobin level stabilization within the range of 11-12 g/dL was measured on a monthly basis according to Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI) guidelines, for enrolled participants who had received methoxy-polyethylene-glycol-epoetin beta treatment.

Time frame: Up to 6 months

Population: Analysis population included all enrolled participants who had received study treatment and were monitored for hemoglobin level on a monthly basis, according to standard clinical practice. Here, number of participants analyzed signifies those participants who were evaluable for this outcome.
