Filter by:Anaemia is a condition in which blood has a lower than normal number of red blood cells. It can also occur if red blood cells do not contain enough haemoglobin, an oxygen carrying part of blood. Anaemia is common in patients with chronic kidney disease. Healthy kidneys produce a hormone called erythropoietin, which stimulates the bone marrow to produce the proper number of red blood cells needed to carry oxygen to vital organs. Chronic kidney disease is a general term that means that the kidneys are not functioning to their full potential. The study drug, BAY85-3934, is being evaluated as a drug to increase the body's ability to produce erythropoietin. The purpose of this study is to find out if the study drug, a tablet taken orally, is safe and effective for the treatment of anaemia associated with chronic kidney disease. The study will enroll 120 patients at multiple locations in Europe, Asia and Australia. Participation will involve a screening visit and between 12 and 15 study visits scheduled over a period of approximately 5 to 7 months. The estimated total duration of study treatment will be 16 weeks. During these scheduled visits patients will undergo a number of procedures to confirm efficacy and safety of the study drug, including measurement of heart rate and blood pressure, physical examination, Electrocardiogram and blood/urine sample collection for laboratory tests. The study will be conducted at 3 hospitals in the UK. Bayer HealthCare AG is funding this research.

The study will enroll 120 patients at multiple locations in Europe, Asia and Australia. Participation will involve a screening visit and between 12 and 14 study visits scheduled over a period of approximately 5 to 7 months. The estimated total duration of study treatment will be 16 weeks. During these scheduled visits patients will undergo a number of procedures to confirm efficacy and safety of the study drug, including measurement of heart rate and blood pressure, physical examination, Electrocardiogram and blood/urine sample collection for laboratory tests.

The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of roxadustat compared to darbepoetin alfa in the treatment of anemia in nondialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (NDD CKD) participants.
This study aims to characterize the relationship between dose of GSK1278863 and hemoglobin (Hgb) response in hemodialysis-dependent (HDD) subjects with anemia associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It is anticipated that the data generated will enable selection of the starting dose(s) and optimize dose adjustment regimen(s) for Phase 3 clinical trials. This study will consist of a screening phase of 3-9 weeks, a 4-week treatment phase and a follow-up visit approximately 4 weeks after completing treatment.
Iron deficiency anemia is a very common problem accompanying pregnancy. in this study, the investigators are going to compare the efficacy and tolerability of two preparations of oral iron in treatment of iron deficiency anemia with pregnancy.
To determine the optimal route of administration, dose level, and safety of intravenous and subcutaneous dosing of sotatercept for maintaining hemoglobin levels in subjects who are on hemodialysis.
To describe the time course of hemoglobin concentration in EU hemodialysis patients switched from methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta (PEG epoetin beta; Mircera) to darbepoetin alfa (Aranesp).
Severe acquired aplastic anaemia (SAA) is a life-threatening disease characterized by pancytopenia and hypoplastic bone marrow. Immunosuppressive treatment with antithymocyte globulin (ATG)and cyclosporine remain the standard regimen with response rates of 70% or more and excellent overall survival. However ,there are no clinical trials to illustrate the response and complete remission rate with different doses of ATG.And there are no data reported on children with SAA so far.
Severe aplastic anemia (SAA)is characterized by the depletion of hematopoietic precursors associated with life-threatening complications. High-dose cyclophosphamide has been found to yield a complete response (CR) in adults and children with SAA.However, the optimal dosage of cyclophosphamide for patients in childhood remains unclear. So we explore the ideal dosage of cyclophosphamide for the treatment of children with SAA.
Fanconi anemia is a rare autosomal or sex linked recessive genetic disease. The disease is characterized by bone marrow hematopoiesis failure, multiple congenital abnormalities, and susceptibility to neoplastic diseases. The cells of FA patients are extremely sensitive to MMC and DEB. The symptoms and ages of FA patients are different, so by comparing the exome of FA patients and their parents, the mutations that were accumulated in FA patients could be found, and these genes might be sensitive to repairment and be important for hematopoiesis maintainance.
