Brief summary
The primary objective of study is to evaluate the no of patients which maintain the Hb level between 9.0 \ 12.0 g/dl during the evaluation period
Detailed description
The secondary objective of study is * No of patients with mean Hb level of +/-1.0g/dl difference from the baseline Hb * Incidence of RBC transfusion during the titration and evaluation periods * Mean Hb during the total study period * Intrapatient Hb variability (mean within-patient standard deviation for Hb) * Frequency of Micera dose level * safety
