What was measured

A time adjusted average baseline Hb concentration for each individual was calculated using an area under the curve (AUC) approach from all available Hb measurements taken during the baseline period (Day -20 to Day 1). The average evaluation period Hb concentration for each individual was calculated using the same method, from all their available measurements taken during the evaluation period (Week 17 to Week 21). The change in Hb concentration between the baseline and evaluation periods was calculated by subtracting the baseline Hb concentration from the evaluation period Hb concentration.

Analysis population: ITT population. Hb values within 21 days after blood transfusion(s) were excluded from analysis.

Groups in this outcome

MIRCERA Group 1: Intermediate-Conversion-Factor Group

Participants received MIRCERA IV injection at a starting dose based on an intermediate conversion factor from their previous ESA dose (4 \* previous weekly epoetin dose \[IU\]/250 or 4 \* previous weekly darbepoetin alfa dose \[mcg\]/1.1) once every 4 weeks for 20 weeks. Participants who completed the 20 weeks of treatment and had Hb level within ± 1 g/dL of their baseline Hb level and within the target range of 10-12 g/dL, entered an optional 52-weeks safety extension period. During this period, the participants continued to receive MIRCERA IV injection once every 4 weeks.

MIRCERA Group 2: High-Conversion-Factor Group

Participants received MIRCERA IV injection based on a high conversion factor from their previous ESA dose (4 \* previous weekly epoetin dose \[IU\]/125 or 4 \* previous weekly darbepoetin alfa dose \[mcg\]/0.55) once every 4 weeks for 20 weeks. Participants who completed the 20 weeks of treatment and had Hb level within ± 1 g/dL of their baseline Hb level and within the target range of 10-12 g/dL, entered an optional 52-weeks safety extension period. During this period, the participants continued to receive MIRCERA IV injection once every 4 weeks.
