A Phase 3 Multi-center, Randomized, Open-label, Active-comparator (Darbepoetin Alfa) Conversion Study of Intermittent Oral Dosing of ASP1517 in Non-dialysis Chronic Kidney Disease Patients With Anemia

1517-CL-0310

The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ASP1517 when converted from recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) or darbepoetin alfa (DA), compared to DA in the treatment of anemia in non-dialysis chronic kidney disease patients. Another uncontrolled cohort will be included to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ASP1517 in patients converted from epoetin beta pegol (CERA). This study will also assess the safety/efficacy of long term treatment of ASP1517 (52 weeks).
