Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of GX-E2 in the Anemic Patients Diagnosed With Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)

October 13, 2017 updated by: Genexine, Inc.

Phase II Clinical Trial to Explore the Optimal Fixed Starting Dose & Dosing Interval and to Evaluate the Safety of GX-E2 in the Anemic Patients Diagnosed With Chronic Kidney Disease and Receiving Hemodialysis (HD) / Peritoneal Dialysis (PD)

The primary objective of study is

  • Part A : To explore the optimal fixed starting dose and dosing interval of GX-E2
  • Part B : To evaluate the proof of concept (POC) of GX-E2

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The secondary objective of study is to evaluate:

  • change of red blood cell indices in anemic patients with chronic kidney disease receiving hemodialysis/peritoneal dialysis when administering GX-E2 intravenously/subcutaneously
  • change of reticulocyte indices in anemic patients with chronic kidney disease receiving hemodialysis/peritoneal dialysis when administering GX-E2 intravenously/subcutaneously
  • safety of GX-E2 when administering intravenously/subcutaneously
  • incidence of blood transfusion in anemic patients with chronic kidney disease receiving hemodialysis/peritoneal dialysis when administering GX-E2 intravenously/subcutaneously
  • Immunogenicity in anemic patients with chronic kidney disease receiving hemodialysis/peritoneal dialysis when administering GX-E2 intravenously/subcutaneously
