Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Incidence of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events
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.
Incidence of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events of Intradialytic Hypotension
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.
Incidence of Related Suspected Hypersensitivity Reactions
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

Incidence of Composite Cardiovascular Events
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 composite cardiovascular events were pre-specified in the statistical analysis plan for the study.
Incidence of Hemodialysis Vascular Access Thrombotic Events
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.
Incidence of Other Thrombotic Events
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.
Incidence of Systemic/Serious Infections
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.
Incidence of Serious Adverse Events
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.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of the parent study is to assess the short-term safety and tolerability of soluble ferric pyrophosphate (SFP) in dialysate administered to a large number of representative adult chronic kidney disease patients on hemodialysis (CKD-HD). The purpose of the extension study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of SFP.
Detailed Description
Parent Study: randomized, double-blinded, crossover, up to 6 weeks, 700 patients. Patients were randomized to receive SFP 2 µmoles (110 µg) iron/L of dialysate in liquid bicarbonate concentrate or placebo (standard liquid bicarbonate concentrate) x 2 weeks, then a 1 week washout, then crossed over to the alternate treatment x 2 weeks. Extension Study: open-label, single active arm, uncontrolled study, up to 53 weeks, 300 patients. Following completion of the RMTI-SFP-6 parent study, patients could enter the extension study, where they received SFP 2 µmoles (110 µg) iron/L of dialysate in liquid bicarbonate concentrate for up to 52 weeks.
