Study Description

Brief Summary

This 24-week, Phase 3, open-label, non-comparative, multicentre study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GSK1278863 in Japanese hemodialysis (HD) patients with renal anemia not using erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs). The primary objective is to evaluate the initial response to GSK1278863 measured by hemoglobin (Hgb) levels in HD patients not using ESAs enrolled in this study. The study is designed to evaluate the appropriateness of the starting dose of GSK1278863 and of the GSK1278863 dose adjustment regimen to achieve or maintain the target Hgb levels. This study will consist of a 4-week screening period, a 24-week treatment period (4-week fixed-dose period and a 20-week dose adjustment period), and a 2- to 4-week follow-up period.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: GSK1278863

Subjects will receive GSK1278863 once daily orally at a starting dose of 4 milligrams (mg) on Day 1, and continued until the day of Week 4. From Weeks 4 to 24, interruption of treatment or dose adjustments will be made within the maintenance dose range of 1 mg to 24 mg according to the dose adjustment algorithm to achieve and/or maintain Hgb within the target range (10.0 to 12.0 g/dL) based on the Hgb value measured every 4 weeks. Dose changes will be made every 4 weeks. Iron replacement therapy will be given according to the standard starting criteria.

Drug: GSK1278863
GSK1278863 will be provided as round, standard biconvex, white film coated tablets containing 1 mg, 2 mg, 4 mg or 6 mg of GSK1278863 as active ingredient.

Drug: Iron
Subjects will receive supplemental iron therapy if ferritin is <=100 ng/mL and TSAT is <=20%. The investigator (or subinvestigator) will choose the route of administration and dose of prescription iron.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change From Baseline in Hgb at Week 4 [Baseline and Week 4]

    Blood samples were collected from participants for measurement of Hgb values. The Baseline value was the latest pre-dose assessment. Change from Baseline at Week 4 was calculated by subtracting Baseline value from the post-dose visit value. The analysis was performed on All Treated Subjects Population which comprised of all participants who received at least one dose of GSK1278863.

  2. Number of Participants by Hgb Change From Baseline Category at Week 4 [Baseline and Week 4]

    Blood samples were collected from participants for measurement of Hgb values. The Baseline value was the latest pre-dose assessment. Change from Baseline at Week 4 was calculated by subtracting Baseline value from the post-dose visit value. The change in Hgb at Week 4 was classified into different categories (i.e., <=-2.0, >-2.0 to -1.0, >-1.0 to 0, >0 to 1.0, >1.0 to 2.0, and >2 g/dL), and the number of participants in each category were summarized.

22. Secondary Outcome
Title Duration of Treatment Interruption Due to Hgb >13 g/dL
Description Hgb values were used for making decision of treatment interruption. On-therapy Hgb values observed in both scheduled and unscheduled visits were counted. Participants who have no treatment interruption due to Hgb >13.0 g/dL are not included
Time Frame Up to Week 24

Outcome Measure Data

Analysis Population Description
All Treated Subjects Population
Arm/Group Title All Participants
Arm/Group Description Participants with newly started dialysis (dialysis newly started <12 weeks before screening) or with maintenance dialysis (dialysis started >=12 weeks before screening) received GSK1278863 orally once daily initially at 4 mg for 4 weeks from Day 1. Subsequently, participants received GSK1278863 orally once a day according to a pre-defined study treatment dose adjustment algorithm to achieve or maintain Hgb within the target range (10.0-12.0 g/dL). In participants taking oral iron before the study, their iron dose was not changed during the fixed-dose period. Supplemental iron therapy was administered if ferritin is <=100 ng/mL and TSAT is <=20%.
