NCT Number: NCT02238067
This study is a prospective, non-interventional, cross-sectional multicenter survey. The aim is to better understand the current therapy pattern for anemia in CKD treated with erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) and not on-dialysis participant population in Israel. Participating physicians will be requested to interview eligible participants with CKD not on dialysis and to complete for them a satisfaction survey for anemia treatment. The survey will be completed twice, once at study start and once at six months' follow-up.

Participants will continue to receive their ESA treatment, as per physician's discretion. The study protocol does not specify any particular ESA drug.
Each participant will be interviewed to complete treatment satisfaction questionnaire survey at baseline and at 6-month follow-up visit.
Time frame: Baseline
Assessment was performed by physician via a satisfaction survey on anemia treatment. ESA types included: Mircera, Recormon, Eprex, and Aranesp. Percentage of participants with each ESA type was reported.
Time frame: Month 6
Assessment was performed by physician via a satisfaction survey on anemia treatment. ESA types included: Mircera, Recormon, Eprex, and Aranesp. Percentage of participants with each ESA type was reported.
Time frame: Baseline
Assessment was performed by physician via a satisfaction survey on anemia treatment. Frequency of ESA use included:Three times a week, twice a week, once a week, every 2 weeks, every 4 weeks or other (any other frequency). Percentage of participants by each frequency of ESA use was reported.
Time frame: Month 6
Assessment was performed by physician via a satisfaction survey on anemia treatment. Frequency of ESA use included:Three times a week, twice a week, once a week, every 2 weeks, every 4 weeks or other (any other frequency). Percentage of participants by each frequency of ESA use was reported.

Percentage of participants with each ESA type and each frequency of ESA use was reported.
Time frame: Baseline, Month 6
Assessment was performed by physician via a satisfaction survey on anemia treatment. CKD stages were based on participant's answer to the survey question. No specific method of assessment for CKD stage was specified. Percentage of participants with each CKD stage was reported.
Time frame: Baseline, Month 6
Assessment was performed by physician via a satisfaction survey on anemia treatment. Participants were asked: 'How do you currently inject the anemia treatment?' and reported any of the 5 possible answers: Independently, by a family member, nurse at home, nurse at the clinic or other. Percentage of participants with each injection administration modes was reported.
Time frame: Baseline, Month 6
Assessment was performed by physician via a satisfaction survey on anemia treatment. Participants responded 'yes' or 'no' to the question: 'Would you be interested in learning to inject independently?' ' Percentage of participants who responded 'yes', was reported.
Time frame: Baseline, Month 6
Assessment was performed by physician via a satisfaction survey on anemia treatment. Participants were asked to rate their need for improvement in the frequency of treatment received currently on a 1-5 scale, where 1 represents 'Convenient, there is no need for improvement' and 5 represents 'Improvement is very necessary'. Percentage of participants with each score was reported.
Time frame: Baseline, Month 6
Assessment was performed by physician via a satisfaction survey on anemia treatment. Participants were asked for the type of ESA received (Mircera, Recormon, Eprex or Aranesp) and to rate their need for improvement in the frequency of each treatment received currently on a 1-5 scale, where 1 represents 'Convenient, there is no need for improvement' and 5 represents 'improvement is very necessary'. Percentage of participants with each score and ESA type was reported.
Time frame: Baseline, Month 6
Assessment was performed by physician via a satisfaction survey on anemia treatment. Participants were asked "Assuming that there are several options for anemia treatment with the only difference being the frequency of use, what is your preference?". Participants answered as either once a month, twice a month, once a week, twice a week, three times a week or other (any other frequency). Percentage of participants with each preferred treatment frequency was reported.

Time frame: Baseline, Month 6
Assessment was performed by physician via a satisfaction survey on anemia treatment. Participants were asked for their preference of treatment frequency and baseline ESA frequency. Participants were asked "Assuming that there are several options for anemia treatment with the only difference being the frequency of use, what is your preference?". Preferred treatment frequency included: once a month (O/M), twice a month (B/M), once a week (O/W), twice a week (B/W), three times a week (T/W) or other (any other frequency]). Frequency of baseline ESA use included: three times a week, twice a week, once a week, every 2 weeks (Q2W), every 4 weeks (Q4W) or other (any other frequency). Percentage of participants by each preferred treatment frequency and baseline ESA frequency was reported.
Time frame: Baseline, Month 6
Assessment was performed by physician via a satisfaction survey on anemia treatment. Participants were asked to rate their limitation of daily life due to ESA refrigeration requirements on a 1-5 scale, where 1 represents 'Does not limit' and 5 represents 'significantly limits'. Percentage of participants with each score was reported.
