Clinical Trial Summary

The study was conducted to assess safety and immunogenicity of recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) manufactured by Daewoong Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd was similar to biological products approved by the drug safety regulatory authority.

Description:

This study consisted of a screening period (4 weeks) and treatment period (52 weeks). Evaluation for immunogenicity effect using ADA (Anti Drug Antibody) detection will be done at weeks 0, 24, and 52 and blood sampling for Routine Hematological tests as supporting data will be conducted every month following hospital regulation. For each subject, the end of the study is the last day of the Blood sample will be drawn In the case of a subject that has left the study (withdrawn), the exit date will be the end of the study. The safety evaluation was conducted based on the incidence of the adverse events local and systemic reactions.
