E.2 Objective of the trial

E.2.1

Main objective of the trial

•To compare daprodustat to recombinant human erthropoetin (rhEPO) for cardiovascular (CV) safety (non-inferiority)
•To compare daprodustat to recombinant human erthropoetin (rhEPO) for hemoglobin (Hgb) efficacy (non-inferiority)

E.2.2

E.2.3

Trial contains a sub-study

Yes

E.2.3.1

Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives

The study will include the following sub-studies:
1. ABPM sub-study:
A Sub-study of the Effect of Daprodustat Compared to rhEPO on BP in Hemodialysis Dependent Subjects with Anemia Associated with Chronic Kidney Disease who Switch from ESAs.
This sub-study is intended to compare daprodustat to rhEPO on BP as assessed by ABPM in dialysis-dependent subjects with anemia associated with CKD who switch from ESAs.
Primary objective is to compare daprodustat to rhEPO for effect on SBP (superiority) by ABPM in subjects receiving maintenance hemodialysis in the ABPM ITT population

2. Pharmacokinetic (PK) sub-study:
A Sub-study to Collect PK Samples in Dialysis Subjects with Anemia Associated with CKD.
The purpose of this sub-study is to collect PK samples in a subset of subjects (n=200) randomized to daprodustat in the main study to enable exploratory exposure-response and exposure-safety analyses.
The primary endpoint is:
- To summarize the PK parameters of daprodustat and three major metabolites in dialysis subjects.

E.3

Principal inclusion criteria

A subject will be eligible for inclusion in this study only if all of the following criteria apply at screening (Week -8) and randomization (Day 1) unless otherwise specified.
1. Age (confirm at screening only): 18 to 99 years of age (inclusive).
2. ESAs: Use of any approved ESA for at least the 6 weeks prior to screening and between screening and randomization.
3. Hgb concentration measured by HemoCue (range is specified in protocol)
4. Dialysis: On dialysis > 90 days prior to screening and continuing on the same mode of dialysis from screening (Week -8) through to randomization (Day 1).
5. Frequency of Dialysis:
- HD (in-center): ≥2 times/week
- PD: ≥5 times/week
- Home HD: (≥2times/week)
6. Compliance with placebo [randomization (Day 1) only]: ≥80% and ≤120% compliance with placebo during run-in period (NOTE: this is in addition to ESA treatment).
7. Informed consent (screening only): capable of giving signed informed consent which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form and in this protocol.

E.4

Principal exclusion criteria

A subject will not be eligible for inclusion in this study if any of the following criteria apply at screening (Week -8) or randomization (Day 1), unless otherwise specified.
CKD related criteria
1. Kidney transplant: Planned living-related or living-unrelated kidney transplant within 52 weeks after study start (Day 1).

Anemia related criteria
2. Ferritin (screening only): ≤100 ng/mL (≤100 ug/L).
3. Transferrin saturation (TSAT) (screening only): ≤20%. If TSAT is 18-20%, then a retest using a new blood sample can be obtained within 7 days of the final laboratory report; the final retest value must be >20% to confirm eligibility.
4. Aplasias: History of bone marrow aplasia or pure red cell aplasia.
5. Other causes of anemia: Untreated pernicious anemia, thalassemia major, sickle cell disease or myelodysplastic syndrome.
6. Gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding: Evidence of actively bleeding gastric, duodenal, or esophageal ulcer disease OR clinically significant GI bleeding ≤4 weeks prior to screening through to randomization (Day 1).

CV disease-related criteria
7. MI or acute coronary syndrome: ≤4 weeks prior to screening through to randomization (Day 1).
8. Stroke or transient ischemic attack: ≤4 weeks prior to screening through to randomization (Day 1).
9. Heart failure (HF): Chronic Class IV HF, as defined by the New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification system.
10. Current uncontrolled hypertension: Current uncontrolled hypertension as determined by the investigator that would contraindicate the use of rhEPO.
11. QTcB (Day 1): QTcB >500 msec, or QTcB >530 msec in subjects with bundle branch block. There is no QTc exclusion for subjects with a predominantly ventricular paced rhythm.

Other disease-related criteria
12. Liver disease: (any one of the following):
- Alanine transaminase (ALT) >2x upper limit of normal (ULN) (screening only)
- Bilirubin >1.5xULN (screening only)
NOTE: Isolated bilirubin >1.5xULN is acceptable if bilirubin is fractionated and direct bilirubin <35%.
- Current unstable liver or biliary disease per investigator assessment, generally by the presence of ascites,
encephalopathy, coagulopathy, hypoalbuminaemia, esophageal or gastric varices, persistent jaundice, or cirrhosis.
NOTE: Stable chronic liver disease (including asymptomatic gallstones, chronic hepatitis B or C, or Gilbert’s syndrome) are acceptable if subject otherwise meets entry criteria.
13. Malignancy: History of malignancy within the 2 years prior to screening through to randomization (Day 1) or currently receiving treatment for cancer, or complex kidney cyst (e.g. Bosniak Category II F, III or IV) > 3cm. Note: The only exception is localized squamous cell or basal cell carcinoma of the skin that has been definitively treated 4 weeks prior to screening.

Concomitant medication and other randomized treatment-related criteria
14. Severe allergic reactions: History of severe allergic or anaphylactic reactions or hypersensitivity to excipients in the investigational product (refer to daprodustat IB), or epoetin alfa or darbepoetin alfa (refer to product labeling).
15. Drugs and supplements: Use of strong inhibitors of CYP2C8 (e.g., gemfibrozil) or strong inducers of CYP2C8 (e.g., rifampin/rifampicin).
16. Other study participation: Use of other investigational agent or device prior to screening through to randomization (Day 1).
•Note: at screening, this exclusion applies to use of the investigational agent within 30 days or within five half lives (whichever is longer).
17. Prior treatment with daprodustat: Any prior treatment with daprodustat for treatment duration of > 30 days.

General health-related criteria
18. Females ONLY: Subject is pregnant [as confirmed by a positive serum human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) test for females of reproductive potential (FRP) only], subject is breastfeeding, or subject is of reproductive potential and does not agree to follow one of the contraceptive options listed in the List of Highly Effective Methods for Avoiding Pregnancy in Appendix 5 of the protocol.
19. Other Conditions: Any other condition, clinical or laboratory abnormality, or examination finding that the investigator considers would put the subject at unacceptable risk, which may affect study compliance (e.g., intolerance to rhEPO) or prevent understanding of the aims or investigational procedures or possible
consequences of the study.

E.5 End points

E.5.1

Primary end point(s)

•Time to first occurrence of adjudicated MACE (composite of all-cause mortality, non-fatal MI and non-fatal stroke)
•Mean change in Hgb between baseline and EP (mean over Weeks 28 to 52)

E.5.1.1

Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point

Endpoint 1: evaluated throughout the study until the accumulation of 945 adjudicated first MACE
Endpoint 2: Between week 28 and week 52

E.5.2

Secondary end point(s)

Time to first occurrence of adjudicated:
•MACE
•MACE or a thromboembolic event (vascular access thrombosis, symptomatic deep vein thrombosis or symptomatic pulmonary embolism)
•MACE or a hospitalization for heart failure (HF)
•Average monthly IV iron dose (mg)/subject to week 52

E.5.2.1

Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point

- Evaluation of endpoint is dependent upon the accumulation of 945 adjudicated first MACE (i.e., it is event-driven).
