Roxadustat for Anemia in Patients With CKD
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
A number of RCT studies have shown the safety and effectiveness of oral Roxadustat in the treatment of renal anemia, but there is a lack of evidence from cohort studies. A prospective cohort study is planed to conduct to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Roxadustat for renal anemia in the real world.

Detailed Description
The prevalence of anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) (15.4%) is twice that of the general population (7.6%), and the degree of anemia increases with the severity of CKD. A number of RCT studies have shown the safety and effectiveness of oral Roxadustat in the treatment of renal anemia, but there is a lack of evidence from cohort studies. A prospective cohort study is planed to conduct to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Roxadustat for renal anemia in the real world. It is planned to continuously recruit patients with renal anemia in Shenzhen Second People's Hospital from October 2020 to June 2023. The treatment of anemia will be recorded (Roxadustat or erythropoietin), and the observation period is one year. Collect the patient's demographic characteristics, drug dosage, adjustment plan, hemoglobin. The main outcome indicators were: the average change in Hb from baseline to 28-52 weeks, and the Hb response rate reached during two consecutive visits; the secondary outcome indicators were: the maintenance rate of the target Hb level, iron metabolism indicators, 0 to 8 weeks of Hb level increase rate, dose adjustment and safety indicators. The generalized additive mixed model of repeated measures was used to analyze the changes and differences of outcome indicators in different groups. Expected results: In the cohort study, the effectiveness and safety of roxastat in the treatment of renal anemia, the starting dose and the adjustment plan, provide a basis for guiding the clinical safe and effective application of roxastat.
