- Limitations and caveats
This pilot study planned to include 15 participants with either Stage 3 or 4 CKD, with no minimum or maximum enrollment target for either stage; however, because of slow enrollment the Sponsor terminated the study early after only 10 participants had enrolled. The overall status of the study was considered as completed since 10 participants received Vadadustat and all 10 participants completed the study per protocol.

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Mean Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin (Hgb) on Day 29 | Baseline; Day 29 | Blood samples were collected to assess Hgb. Baseline Hgb was defined as the average of the 2 samples obtained prior to dosing (Pre-Baseline and Baseline). A positive change from baseline indicates that hemoglobin concentration increased. |
| Secondary | Mean Change From Baseline in Hematocrit on Day 29 | Baseline; Day 29 | Blood samples were collected to assess hematocrit. A positive change from baseline indicates hematocrit concentration increased. |
| Secondary | Mean Change From Baseline in Total Red Blood Cell (RBC) Count on Day 29 | Baseline; Day 29 | Blood samples were collected to assess RBC count. Baseline RBC count was defined as the average of the 2 samples obtained prior to dosing (Pre-Baseline and Baseline). A positive change from baseline indicates RBC count increased. |
| Secondary | Mean Change From Baseline in Absolute Reticulocyte Count on Day 29 | Baseline; Day 29 | Blood samples were collected to assess reticulocyte count. Baseline absolute reticulocyte count was defined as the average of the 3 reticulocyte counts obtained prior to dosing (Screening, Pre- Baseline, and Baseline). A positive change from baseline indicates absolute reticulocyte count increased. |
| Secondary | Mean Change From Baseline in Reticulocyte Hemoglobin (Hgb) Content on Day 29 | Baseline; Day 29 | Blood samples were collected to assess reticulocyte Hgb. Baseline Hgb was defined as the average of the 2 samples obtained prior to dosing (Pre-Baseline and Baseline). A positive change from baseline indicates reticulocyte Hgb content increased. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Absolute Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin (Hgb) at Day 29 | Day 29 | Blood samples were collected to assess Hgb. Baseline Hgb was defined as the average of the 2 samples obtained prior to dosing (Pre-Baseline and Baseline). |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With the Percentage Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin (Hgb) at Day 29 | Day 29 | Blood samples were collected to assess Hgb. Baseline Hgb was defined as the average of the 2 samples obtained prior to dosing (Pre-Baseline and Baseline). |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Percentage Change From Baseline in Hematocrit at Day 29 | Day 29 | Blood samples were collected to assess hematocrit. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Percentage Change From Baseline in Red Blood Cell (RBC) Count at Day 29 | Day 29 | Blood samples were collected to assess RBC count. Baseline RBC count was defined as the average of the 2 samples obtained prior to dosing (Pre-Baseline and Baseline). |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Change From Baseline in Absolute Reticulocyte Count at Day 29 | Day 29 | Blood samples were collected to assess reticulocyte count. Baseline absolute reticulocyte count was defined as the average of the 3 reticulocyte counts obtained prior to dosing (Screening, Pre- Baseline, and Baseline). |
