Proposed therapeutic algorithm for the treatment of anemia of chronic renal failure in pre-dialysis patients with low dose once weekly subcutaneous r-HuEPO. Multicenter Study Group, Israel.
Anemia of chronic renal failure (CRF) prior to initiation of dialysis is an important cause of morbidity and requires early therapeutic intervention. The current study was designed to investigate the efficacy and tolerability of a therapeutic algorithm for anemia of CRF in pre-dialysis patients which is based on low dose once-a-week subcutaneous (s.c.) administration of recombinant human erythropoietin (r-HuEPO). Thirty-one patients participated in a prospective open-label multicenter study. At baseline, hemoglobin was 8.8+/-0.1 g/dl, transferrin saturation 27+/-2%, ferritin 207+/-28 ng/ml and serum creatinine 4.7+/-0.2 mg/dl. Treatment with r-HuEPO was started at a fixed s.c. dose of 4,000 units once weekly, irrespective of body weight, and titrated upwards or downwards according to a predetermined algorithm. Hemoglobin rose to levels >10 g/dl within 8 weeks and remained stable throughout the remaining period of the study. By week 24, most patients required
