A Study of MIRCERA in Participants With Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3-4 and Not on Dialysis

An observational, longitudinal, multi-center, non-interventional study in participants with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3-4, assessed by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) to collect data regarding safety and efficacy in participants with pre-dialysis situation who are treated with MIRCERA in normal clinical environment.

    Hb fluctuation was defined as change in Hb value >15 gm/L between 2 visits.

  16. Percentage of Participants With Hb Fluctuation From Baseline to Month 12

    Time frame: Baseline to Month 12

    Hb fluctuation was defined as change in Hb value >15 gm/L between 2 visits.

Secondary outcomes

    Time frame: Pre-baseline (Months -6 and -3), baseline, Months 3, 6, 9 and 12

    Percentage of participants who had any change in their iron supplement medication at a specified visit were reported.

  6. Percentage of Participants With Changes in Immunosuppressive Treatment

    Time frame: Pre-baseline (Months -6 and -3), baseline, Months 3, 6, 9 and 12

    Percentage of participants who had any change in their immunosuppressive medication at a specified visit were reported.
