Arm Type

Experimental

Active Comparator

Arm Label

High Hb group

Low Hb group

Arm Description

Darbepoetin alfa is given to the patients. Target Hb level is 12.0g/dL and it should be maintained greater than or equal to 11.0g/dL and less than 13.0g/dL. If the patients do not have medical history of myocardial infarction, stroke, pulmonary embolism, unstable angina, or peripheral artery disease, the target Hb level will be greater than or equal to 12.0g/dL and less than 13.0g/dL. Maximum dose of darbepoetin alfa is 240 microgram per 4 weeks.

Darbepoetin alfa is given to the patients. Target Hb level is 10.0g/dL and it should be maintained greater than or equal to 9.0g/dL and less than 11.0g/dL. If the Hb level exceeds 10.0g/dL in patients, reduce the dose amount or stop giving dose.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Composite renal outcome of chronic dialysis, kidney transplantation, eGFR 6 mL/min/1.73m2 or less, or eGFR less than 50% of initial value.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Composite cardiovascular outcome of cardiovascular death, stroke, myocardial infarction, leg amputation, admission by heart failure or angina.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to ask whether treating non-diabetic chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with GFR 8-20mL/min/1.73m2 by darbepoetin Alfa targeting Hb between 11.0 and 13.0g/dL preserves renal function better than targeting Hb between 9.0 and11.0g/dL. The investigators also ask whether the higher Hb targeting 11 to 13g/dL will not cause higher adverse events regarding cardiovascular diseases compared with lower Hb targeting 9 to 11g/dL.
Detailed Description
Anemia is common among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular and renal events. Although erythropoiesis stimulating agent (ESA) has been used to correct anemia, use of ESA (hemoglobin level at approximately 13 g/dL) did not reduce cardiovascular or renal events in diabetic CKD patients. Subgroup analysis of a recent randomized study suggested that use of darbepoetin alfa targeting Hb between 11 and 13 g/dL may preserve renal function better than targeting Hb between 9 and 11g/dL in non-diabetic CKD patients.
