What was measured
To compare the effects of the 3 different epoetin alfa dosing schedules and a darbepoetin alfa schedule. FACT-AN consist of Fatigue concerns subscale and non-fatigue concerns subscale. FACT Total Anemia score was calculated by adding the two subscales scores and transformed into 0-100 scale. FACT Total Anemia, Fatigue concerns scale and Non-Fatigue concerns scale are all ranges: 0 (Worst QOL) to 100 (Best QOL). Average scores across all time points for each subscale and total scale were calculated.
Analysis population: All patients that were evaluable per protocol with QOL data.
