Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Interleukin-1 blockade for the treatment of heart failure in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (End-stage renal disease and Heart fAilure - Anakinra Remodeling Trial) is a Phase 2, single-arm trial designed to estimate the effect of anakinra, a recombinant human Interleukin-1 (IL-1) receptor antagonist, on cardiorespiratory fitness in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease and heart failure.
