Clinical Trials Search.org is a site committed to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. A randomized, controlled, open-label, multicenter, parallel-group study to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of RO0503821 when administered intravenously for the maintenance treatment of anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease who are on dialysis Clinical research trials and A randomized, controlled, open-label, multicenter, parallel-group study to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of RO0503821 when administered intravenously for the maintenance treatment of anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease who are on dialysis health trials take place in a lot of of cities across the US. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials generally measure the potency of new drugs. The aim of the studies / projects is to answer specific human medical questions. Clinical trials are a popular manner for physicians, government agencies, and private sector corporations to discover remedies for all kinds of circumstances, like A randomized, controlled, open-label, multicenter, parallel-group study to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of RO0503821 when administered intravenously for the maintenance treatment of anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease who are on dialysis. A randomized, controlled, open-label, multicenter, parallel-group study to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of RO0503821 when administered intravenously for the maintenance treatment of anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease who are on dialysis Clinical Trials and other clinical trials allow for volunteers to have health treatment alternatives before they are available to the general public. Many times the test subjects obtain treatment for without cost, and occasionally they are paid for their time. Sometimes there is a cost for a A randomized, controlled, open-label, multicenter, parallel-group study to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of RO0503821 when administered intravenously for the maintenance treatment of anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease who are on dialysis clinical trial. Subjects oftentimes recieve the most effective healthcare possible for their A randomized, controlled, open-label, multicenter, parallel-group study to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of RO0503821 when administered intravenously for the maintenance treatment of anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease who are on dialysis condition. Hazards are a reality, however, and could include additional or frequent doctor visits, healthcare dangers (perhaps life-threatening), and/or the treatment being ineffective. Trials are federally governed with exacting guidelines to protect clinical trials subjects.

A randomized, controlled, open-label, multicenter, parallel-group study to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of RO0503821 when administered intravenously for the maintenance treatment of anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease who are on dialysis



A randomized, controlled, open-label, multicenter, parallel-group study to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of RO0503821 when administered intravenously for the maintenance treatment of anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease who are on dialysis

For Condition: Renal Anemia
Status: Recruiting
Sponsor(s): Hoffmann-La Roche ,
Synopsis: The primary purpose of this study is to demonstrate that RO0503821 administered intravenously maintains hemoglobin concentrations in dialysis patients on prior intravenous epoetin maintenance treatment of chronic renal anemia. The secondary purpose is to assess the safety and tolerability of intravenous administration of RO0503821 in this patient patient population.
