Filter by:This study will evaluate whether anemia prevention with NeoRecormon has an additional impact on reducing cardiovascular risk over conventional anemia treatment in patients mostly with stage IV chronic kidney disease and renal anemia. The anticipated time on study treatment is 2+ years and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
The purpose of this study is to determine if oral Heme Iron Polypeptide is as effective as intravenous (IV) iron sucrose in the treatment of iron-deficiency anemia for patients with chronic kidney disease.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a less restrictive strategy of red blood cell transfusion in elderly patients following coronary bypass surgery results in enhanced postoperative recovery as determined by quality of life assessment, exercise tolerance and clinical outcomes. Two postoperative transfusion strategies: 1. Liberal - transfused when Hgb is <100g/L 2. Restrictive - transfused when Hgb is <70g/L
The objective of this study was to treat anemic (Hemoglobin (Hb) < 12 g/dL) HIV-infected subjects with once weekly (QW) PROCRIT (Epoetin alfa) to a target Hb of > 13 g/dL and then to assess if the target Hb level and improvements in Quality of Life (QOL) could be maintained with every other week (Q2W) PROCRIT (Epoetin alfa) dosing.
RATIONALE: Giving low doses of chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, before a donor bone marrow transplant helps stop the growth of abnormal cells. It also stops the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's bone marrow. The donated bone marrow stem cells may replace the patient's immune system and help destroy any remaining abnormal cells. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine and methotrexate before or after transplant may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of cyclophosphamide in treating patients who are undergoing a donor bone marrow transplant for Fanconi's anemia.
This study compares the efficacy and safety of intravenous (IV) iron (VIT45) versus oral iron (ferrous sulfate) administered to subjects who suffer from anemia and are diagnosed with non-dialysis dependent chronic kidney disease (NDD-CKD).
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the long term safety and tolerability of an iron maintenance dosing strategy utilizing VIT45 in the treatment of anemia of non-dialysis dependent chronic kidney disease (NDD-CKD). This study is a long term extension to protocol 1VIT04004 (NCT00317239).
The purpose of this study is to compare hemoglobin (Hgb) response rates between epoetin alfa (PROCRIT; 40,000 Units (U) SC weekly) and darbepoetin alfa (ARANESP; 200 mcg every other week) in anemic cancer patients receiving chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study was to describe the time course and extent of hemoglobin (Hb) changes and the erythropoietic response to PEG-IFN/RBV (Pegylated Interferon and Ribavirin)-induced anemia In HCV(hepatitis C virus)/HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) co-Infected subjects.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the ability of peginesatide (AF37702) to increase and maintain increased hemoglobin levels in participants with chronic kidney disease (CKD) (either not on dialysis, receiving regular hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis, or following renal transplant) with confirmed antibody-mediated pure red cell aplasia (PRCA).
