Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of molidustat in comparison to darbepoetin alfa in dialysis subjects with renal anemia who are treated with Erythropoiesis-Stimulating Agents (ESAs).

  • Drug: Darbepoetin alfa
  • Drug: Placebo of Molidustat (BAY85-3934)
  • Drug: Placebo of Darbepoetin alfa

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Molidustat group

Subjects in the molidustat group will receive molidustat and darbepoetin alfa placebo.

Drug: Molidustat (BAY85-3934)
Starting dose of molidustat will be titrated based on the subject's Hb (Hemoglobin) response. Administrated orally once daily (OD).

Drug: Placebo of Darbepoetin alfa
Matching placebo of Darbepoetin alfa.

Active Comparator: Darbepoetin alfa group

Subjects in the darbepoetin alfa group will receive molidustat placebo and darbepoetin alfa.

Drug: Darbepoetin alfa
Starting dose of darbepoetin alfa will be titrated based on the subject's Hb (Hemoglobin) response. Administrated weekly or once every two weeks by intravenous injection.

Drug: Placebo of Molidustat (BAY85-3934)
Matching placebo of Molidustat.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. The mean Hb level during the evaluation period [From week 33 to 36]

  2. The change in mean Hb level during the evaluation period from baseline [Baseline and week 33 to 36]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Responder rate: proportion of responders among the subjects [From week 33 to 36]

    Responder is defined as meeting all of the following criteria: (i) Mean of the Hb levels in the target range (ii) ≥ 50% of the Hb levels in the target range (iii) No rescue treatment

  2. Proportion of subjects who meet each component of the response [From week 33 to 36]

    Response: (i) Mean of the Hb levels in the target range (ii) ≥ 50% of the Hb levels in the target range (iii) No rescue treatment

  3. Hb level [Up to 52 weeks]

  4. Change in Hb level [Baseline and up to 52 weeks]

  5. Proportion of subjects whose mean hemoglobin level is in the target range [From week 33 to 36]

  6. Proportion of subjects whose mean hemoglobin level is above the target range [From week 33 to 36]

  7. Proportion of subjects whose mean hemoglobin level is below the target range [From week 33 to 36]

  8. Proportion of subjects with hemoglobin levels in the target range [Up to 52 weeks]

  9. Proportion of subjects with hemoglobin levels above the target range [Up to 52 weeks]

  10. Proportion of subjects with hemoglobin levels below the target range [Up to 52 weeks]

  11. Proportion of subjects whose maximum rise in Hb between each consecutive visits is above 0.5 g/dL/week [Up to 52 weeks]

    Defined as change in Hb level / duration between two visits (weeks)

  12. Number of participants with serious adverse events [Up to 52 weeks]

  13. Maximum concentration (Cmax) [At baseline, week 8, week 24 and week 52]

  14. Area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) [At baseline, week 8, week 24 and week 52]

  15. EPO (Erythropoietin) serum concentration [At baseline, week 8, week 24 and week 52]

Inclusion Criteria:
  • Subject with ESKD (end-stage kidney disease) on regular dialysis (including, hemodiafiltration, hemofiltration, hemodialysis, and other modalities except for peritoneal dialysis) weekly or more than weekly for at least 12 weeks prior to randomization

  • Body weight (after dialysis) > 40 and ≤ 160 kg at screening
