D.8 Information on Placebo

E. General Information on the Trial

E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation

E.1.1

Medical condition(s) being investigated

Anaemia in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)

MedDRA Classification

E.1.3

Condition being studied is a rare disease

E.2 Objective of the trial

E.2.1

Main objective of the trial

Demonstrate non-inferiority of efficacy between twice weekly (BIW) and once weekly QW dose schedules of Dynepo in previously EPO-naïve patients (pts), as measured by Hb at Week 24. Demonstrate non-inferiority of efficacy between QW and once every two weeks Q2W dose schedules of Dynepo in patients previously stable on EPO, as measured by Hb over Weeks (Wks) 16-24.

E.2.2

Secondary objectives of the trial

Demonstrate non-inferiority of efficacy between QW & Q2W dose schedules in pts previously stable on EPO, measured by average dose over Wks 16-24. Compare efficacy between BIW & QW in EPO-naïve pts, and between QW & Q2W in pts stable on EPO measured by:a)no.(%) of pts who achieve Hb of >=11g/dL at Wks 16,24 & over Wks 16-24, b)Hct at Wks 16,24 & over Wks 16-24, c)no.(%) of pts who achieve the Hct target range of 33%-36% at Wks 16,24 & over Wks 16-24, d)no.(%) of pts who achieve both Hb of >=11g/dL & the Hct target range of 33%-36% at Wks 16 & 24 & over Wks 16-24. Compare average dose over Wks 9-16, 16-24 & 9-24 between dose schedules. Compare efficacy between BIW & QW in EPO-naïve pts, & QW & Q2W measured by Hb at Wk 16 & over Wks 16-24, Hb at Wks 16 & 24 respectively. Investigate safety of BIW & QW in EPO-naïve pts & safety of QW & Q2W in pts stable on EPO. Investigate efficacy and safety when switching administration frequencies &, efficacy & safety in pts with DM.

E.2.3

Trial contains a sub-study

E.3

Principal inclusion criteria

To be eligible for inclusion, each patient must meet all of the following criteria at Screening, and must continue to fulfil these criteria at Baseline:

Aged at least 18 years.

Male, or non-pregnant, non-lactating female patients who agree to comply with the contraceptive requirements of the protocol.

Patients with CKD (KDOQI stages III–V).

Stable on any dose less than or equal to 10,000IU/week of sc EPO or requiring initiation of EPO treatment.
Those currently receiving EPO treatment must have been receiving a stable dose, that was effective in managing Hb levels, for at least 30 days immediately prior to randomisation in the study.
Those requiring initiation of EPO treatment must have Hb levels of greater than or equal to 8g/dL and <11g/dL.

Transferrin saturation greater than or equal to 20% and ferritin greater than or equal to 100ng/mL.

The patient must understand and be able and willing and likely to fully comply with study procedures and restrictions. The patient must be deemed likely to be available for all scheduled study visits.

Written, signed and dated informed consent to participate in the study must be given by the patient or a legally acceptable representative, in accordance with the ICH GCP Guideline E6 and applicable regulations, before completing any study-related procedures.

E.4

Principal exclusion criteria

Patients are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria are met at Screening or at Baseline:

Uncontrolled hypertension (defined as a diastolic pressure value >95mmHg, or a systolic value > 160mmHg, which remains at that level despite being at dry weight and on more than two medications at maximal dose).

Thrombocytopenia (platelet count <75,000/mm3).

Active bleeding disorder (diathesis) (for example, Gastro-intestinal or Genito-urinary tract bleeding).

Known Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection.

Impaired hepatic function (Aspartate Transaminase [AST], Alanine Transaminase [ALT] >3x Upper Limit of Normal [ULN]).

Current or recurrent disease that could affect the action, absorption or disposition of the investigational product, or clinical or laboratory assessments.

Clinically relevant haematologic, oncologic, cardiovascular, hepatic, neurologic, endocrine, infectious, inflammatory or other major systemic disease making implementation of the protocol or interpretation of the results difficult.

Mental condition rendering the patient unable to understand the nature, scope or possible consequences of the study.

Patient unlikely to comply with the protocol.

Current or relevant previous history of serious, severe or unstable (acute or progressive) physical or psychiatric illness, any medical disorder that may require treatment or make the patient unlikely to fully complete the study, or any condition that presents undue risk from the investigational product or procedures.

Requiring doses of EPO >10,000IU/week.

Two or more doses of prescribed EPO treatment missed or withheld by physician order in the 14 days immediately prior to randomisation in the study.

Treatment with immunosuppressive drugs (other than corticosteroids for a chronic condition) in the 30 days immediately prior to randomisation in the study.

Androgen therapy in the 30 days immediately prior to randomisation in the study.

Known or suspected intolerance or hypersensitivity to EPO therapy or any of the stated ingredients of Dynepo.

Known to have Ab against EPO.

Patients with a history of alcohol or other substance abuse within the last year.

Treatment with any investigational drug in the 30 days immediately prior to randomisation in the study.

Patients that have previously been randomised into this study.

Plans for treatment or care after the subject has ended the participation in the trial (if it is different from the expected normal treatment of that condition)

There will be a follow up study to look at the safety and efficacy of Dynepo over the long term (probably a couple of years). All patients who successfully reach the end of this first study will be invited to take part. If patients choose not to take part or are not eligible, patients will be offered alternative treatment by their investigator.
