    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Incidence of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events [Up to 7 weeks for the Parent (Crossover) Study and up to 53 weeks for Extension Study]

      Adverse events for a given intervention (SFP or Placebo) are counted from the date of the first day of dosing of the intervention until 7 days after the last day of dosing of the intervention.

    2. Incidence of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events of Intradialytic Hypotension [Up to 7 weeks for the Parent (Crossover) Study and up to 53 weeks for Extension Study]

      Adverse events for a given intervention (SFP or Placebo) are counted from the date of the first day of dosing of the intervention until 7 days after the last day of dosing of the intervention. For each adverse event, investigators assessed whether the event met the protocol criteria for intradialytic hypotension. Intradialytic hypotension events were only to have been reported as adverse events if they exceeded the individual subject's baseline pattern of intradialytic hypotension.

    3. Incidence of Related Suspected Hypersensitivity Reactions [Up to 7 weeks for the Parent (Crossover) Study and up to 53 weeks for Extension Study]

      Adverse events for a given intervention (SFP or Placebo) are counted from the date of the first day of dosing of the intervention until 7 days after the last day of dosing of the intervention. For each adverse event, investigators assessed whether the event met protocol criteria for suspected hypersensitivity reactions.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Incidence of Composite Cardiovascular Events [Up to 7 weeks for the Parent (Crossover) Study and up to 53 weeks for Extension Study]

      Adverse events for a given intervention (SFP or Placebo) are counted from the date of the first day of dosing of the intervention until 7 days after the last day of dosing of the intervention.

    2. Incidence of Hemodialysis Vascular Access Thrombotic Events [Up to 7 weeks for the Parent (Crossover) Study and up to 53 weeks for Extension Study]

      Adverse events for a given intervention (SFP or Placebo) are counted from the date of the first day of dosing of the intervention until 7 days after the last day of dosing of the intervention. Adverse event terms meeting criteria for hemodialysis vascular access thrombotic events were pre-specified in the statistical analysis plan for the study.

    3. Incidence of Other Thrombotic Events [Up to 7 weeks for the Parent (Crossover) Study and up to 53 weeks for Extension Study]

      Adverse events for a given intervention (SFP or Placebo) are counted from the date of the first day of dosing of the intervention until 7 days after the last day of dosing of the intervention. Adverse event terms meeting criteria for other thrombotic events were pre-specified in the statistical analysis plan for the study.

    4. Incidence of Systemic/Serious Infections [Up to 7 weeks for the Parent (Crossover) Study and up to 53 weeks for Extension Study]

      Adverse events for a given intervention (SFP or Placebo) are counted from the date of the first day of dosing of the intervention until 7 days after the last day of dosing of the intervention. Adverse events of systemic/serious infections were defined in the statistical analysis plan for the study to include infections for which the subject was administered at least 3 doses of an IV antibiotic, and infections for which the subject was hospitalized.

    5. Incidence of Serious Adverse Events [Up to 7 weeks for the Parent (Crossover) Study and up to 53 weeks for Extension Study]

      Adverse events for a given intervention (SFP or Placebo) are counted from the date of the first day of dosing of the intervention until 7 days after the last day of dosing of the intervention. For each adverse event, investigators assessed whether the event met seriousness criteria.

    Other Outcome Measures

    1. Serum Iron Change From Pre-dialysis to Post-dialysis at Week 2 [Pre-dialysis and post-dialysis during study week 2 of the Parent (Crossover) Study]

      Serum iron was assessed from samples obtained pre-dialysis and post-dialysis at a single hemodialysis during study week 2. Because of the crossover nature of the study, the week 2 values reflect effects of SFP in the SFP/Placebo arm and effects of Placebo in the Placebo/SFP arm.

    2. Serum Iron Change From Pre-dialysis to Post-dialysis at Week 5 [Pre-dialysis and post-dialysis during study week 5 of the Parent (Crossover) Study]

      Serum iron was assessed from samples obtained pre-dialysis and post-dialysis at a single hemodialysis during study week 5. Because of the crossover nature of the study, the week 5 values reflect effects of Placebo in the SFP/Placebo arm and effects of SFP in the Placebo/SFP arm.

    3. Unsaturated Iron-binding Capacity Change From Pre-dialysis to Post-dialysis at Week 2 [Pre-dialysis and post-dialysis during study week 2 of the Parent (Crossover) Study]

      Unsaturated iron-binding capacity was assessed from samples obtained pre-dialysis and post-dialysis at a single hemodialysis during study week 2. Because of the crossover nature of the study, the week 2 values reflect effects of SFP in the SFP/Placebo arm and effects of Placebo in the Placebo/SFP arm.

    4. Unsaturated Iron-binding Capacity Change From Pre-dialysis to Post-dialysis at Week 5 [Pre-dialysis and post-dialysis during study week 5 of the Parent (Crossover) Study]

      Unsaturated iron-binding capacity was assessed from samples obtained pre-dialysis and post-dialysis at a single hemodialysis during study week 5. Because of the crossover nature of the study, the week 5 values reflect effects of Placebo in the SFP/Placebo arm and effects of SFP in the Placebo/SFP arm.

    5. Transferrin Saturation Change From Pre-dialysis to Post-dialysis at Week 2 [Pre-dialysis and post-dialysis during study week 2 of the Parent (Crossover) Study]

      Transferrin saturation (based on TIBC derived from transferrin levels) was assessed from samples obtained pre-dialysis and post-dialysis at a single hemodialysis during study week 2. Because of the crossover nature of the study, the week 2 values reflect effects of SFP in the SFP/Placebo arm and effects of Placebo in the Placebo/SFP arm.

    6. Transferrin Saturation Change From Pre-dialysis to Post-dialysis at Week 5 [Pre-dialysis and post-dialysis during study week 5 of the Parent (Crossover) Study]

      Transferrin saturation (based on TIBC derived from transferrin levels) was assessed from samples obtained pre-dialysis and post-dialysis at a single hemodialysis during study week 5. Because of the crossover nature of the study, the week 5 values reflect effects of Placebo in the SFP/Placebo arm and effects of SFP in the Placebo/SFP arm.

    7. Ferritin [Baseline, up to 53 weeks for Extension Study]

      The baseline and end of treatment predialysis ferritin levels were evaluated for the 52-week extension study to determine whether soluble ferric pyrophosphate increases iron stores.

    8. Serum Iron [Baseline, up to 53 weeks for Extension Study]

      The baseline and end of treatment predialysis serum iron levels were evaluated for the 52-week extension study to determine the effect of soluble ferric pyrophosphate on serum iron.

    9. Transferrin Saturation [Baseline, up to 53 weeks for Extension Study]

      The baseline and end of treatment predialysis transferrin saturation were evaluated for the 52-week extension study to confirm clearance of iron derived from soluble ferric pyrophosphate.

    10. Incidence of Patients Meeting Hy's Law Criteria [Up to 7 weeks for the Parent (Crossover) Study and up to 53 weeks for Extension Study]

      The peak alanine aminotransferase and the peak total bilirubin levels were evaluated per patient. Laboratory values for a given intervention (SFP or Placebo) are counted from the date of the first day of dosing of the intervention until 7 days after the last day of dosing of the intervention. Patients with alanine aminotransferase more than three times the upper limit of normal and also total bilirubin more than two times the upper limit of normal are counted.
