Anemia, Diabetic Kidney Disease
Conditions
Brief summary
This study is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter and prospective study, which is conducted to evaluate the effect of Roxadustat on anemia in subjects with DKD (stage III-IV).
Detailed description
This study will consist of three study periods as follows: Screening Period: 2 weeks Treatment Period: 24weeks Follow-up Period: 4 weeks
Interventions
The starting dose of Roxadustat will be defined as per the China Package Insert. The recommended starting dose of roxadustat will depend on the body weight of the patient (based on patient's empty weight prior to instillation of dialysate): 70 mg (40 to \< 60 kg) tiw or 100 mg (≥ 60 kg) tiw. The frequency of hemoglobin concentration test should be ≥ once every 4 weeks. The dose will be adjusted according to the following table every 4 weeks to achieve and/or maintain hemoglobin within the target range (10.0-12.0 g/dl).

Subject has voluntarily signed and dated an informed consent form (ICF), approved by an EC, after the nature of the study has been explained and the subject has had the opportunity to ask questions. 3. Diagnosed as Type 2 diabetic kidney disease (usually a clinical diagnosis made based on the presence of albuminuria and/or reduced eGFR in the absence of signs or symptoms of other primary causes of kidney damage), with KDOQI Stage 3 or 4 (an eGFR≧15 ml/min/1.73 m2 and \<60 ml/min/1.73 m2 estimated using the CKD-EPI equation). 4. The recent Hb value during the Screening Period, must be ≥7.0 g/dL and \<10 g/dL. 5. Either transferrin saturation (TSAT) ≥5% or serum ferritin ≥30 ng/mL during the screening period. 6.
