ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryAverage of Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) Measured by Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) Over 6-hour Post Dosing on Day 57Up to 6 hours post dose on Day 57
The effect of daprodustat and epoetin alfa on blood pressure was compared using ABPM after 8 weeks of Hgb maintenace therapy on Day 57. Analysis was based on "analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with terms for treatment, prior erythropoiesis-stimulating agent (ESA) dose (low/high), post-Hemodialysis dependent (HD)/pre-AC 1 SBP, difference between post-HD/pre-AC 2 SBP and post-HD/pre-AC 1 SBP and treatment by difference in post-HD SBP between AC 1 and 2 interaction." Least square (LS) mean of 6 hour average SBP post AC2 on Day 57 and its corresponding standard error has been presented.
SecondaryAverage of SBP, Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) and Mean Arterial Blood Pressure (MAP) Measured by ABPM Over 6-hour Post Dosing on Day 1Up to 6 hours post dose on Day 1
The initial effect of daprodustat and epoetin alfa on blood pressure was compared using ABPM over 6 hour post-dosing on Day 1. Analysis was based on ANCOVA with terms for treatment, prior ESA dose (low/high), post-HD/pre-AC1 SBP, DBP and MAP. LS mean of 6 hour average SBP, DBP and MAP post AC1 on Day 1 and its corresponding standard error has been presented.
SecondaryAverage of Heart Rate (HR) Measured by ABPM Over 6 Hour Post Dosing on Day 1Up to 6 hours post dose on Day 1
The initial effect of daprodustat and epoetin alfa on HR was compared using ABPM over 6 hour post-dosing on Day 1. Analysis was based on ANCOVA with terms for treatment, prior ESA dose (low/high), post-HD/pre-AC1 HR. LS mean of 6 hour average HR post AC1 on Day 1 and its corresponding standard error has been presented.
SecondaryArea Under the Effect Curve (AUEC) of SBP, DBP and MAP Measured by ABPM Over 24-hour Post Dosing on Day 1Up to 24 hours post dose on Day 1
The initial effect of daprodustat and epoetin alfa on blood pressure was compared using AUEC of SBP, DBP and MAP measured by ABPM over 24-hour post dosing on Day 1. Analysis was based on ANCOVA with terms for treatment and prior ESA dose (low/high). LS mean of AUEC up to 24 hours post dose on Day 1 and its corresponding standard error has been presented.
SecondaryAUEC of HR Measured by ABPM Over 24-hour Post Dosing on Day 1Up to 24 hours post dose on Day 1
The initial effect of daprodustat and epoetin alfa on HR was compared using AUEC of HR measured by ABPM over 24-hour post dosing. Analysis was based on ANCOVA with terms for treatment and prior ESA dose (low/high). LS mean of AUEC up to 24 hours post dose on Day 1 and its corresponding standard error has been presented.
SecondaryAverage of DBP and MAP Measured by ABPM Over 6-hour Post Dosing on Day 57Up to 6 hours post dose on Day 57
The effect of daprodustat and epoetin alfa on blood pressure was compared using ABPM over 6 hour post-dosing after AC2 on Day 57. Analysis was based on ANCOVA with terms for treatment, prior ESA dose (low/high), post-HD/pre-AC1 DBP and MAP, difference between post-HD/pre-AC2 DBP and MAP and post-HD/pre-AC1 DBP and MAP and treatment by difference in post-HD DBP and MAP between AC1 and 2 interaction. LS mean of 6 hour average DBP and MAP post AC2 on Day 57 and its corresponding standard error has been presented.
SecondaryAverage of HR Measured by ABPM Over 6 Hour Post Dosing on Day 57Up to 6 hours post dose on Day 57
The effect of daprodustat and epoetin alfa on HR was compared using ABPM over 6 hour post-dosing. Analysis was based on ANCOVA with terms for treatment, prior ESA dose (low/high), post-HD/pre-AC1 HR, difference between post-HD/pre-AC2 HR and post-HD/pre-AC1 HR and treatment by difference in post-HD HR between AC1 and 2 interaction. LS mean of 6 hour average HR post AC2 on Day 57 and its corresponding standard error has been presented.
SecondaryAUEC of SBP, DBP and MAP Measured by ABPM Over 24-hour Post Dosing on Day 57Up to 24 hours post dose on Day 57
The effect of daprodustat and epoetin alfa on blood pressure was compared using AUEC of SBP, DBP and MAP measured by ABPM over 24-hour post dosing on Day 57. Analysis was based on ANCOVA with terms for treatment and prior ESA dose (low/high). LS mean of AUEC up to 24 hour post dose on Day 57 and its corresponding standard error has been presented.
SecondaryAUEC of HR Measured by ABPM Over 24-hour Post Dosing on Day 57Up to 24 hours post dose on Day 57
The effect of daprodustat and epoetin alfa on HR was compared using AUEC of HR measured by ABPM over 24-hour post dosing on Day 57. Analysis was based on ANCOVA with terms for treatment and prior ESA dose (low/high). LS mean of AUEC up to 24 hour post dose on Day 57 and its corresponding standard error has been presented.
SecondaryChange From Pre-dose in SBP, DBP and MAP at Day 1Day 1: Pre-dose and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 and 24 hours post-dose
The change from pre-dose in SBP, DBP and MAP was measured using ABPM to compare the initial effect of daprodustat to epoetin alfa after AC1 on Day 1. Change from pre-dose at each timepoint is calculated as measurement at post-dose minus pre-acute challenge 1 measurement.
