Objectives

Narrative objectives1

Nephrogenic anemia patients on hemodialysis who had been taking epoetin alpha or epoetin beta were switched to Epoetin Kappa to confirm that the latter was safe and had an anemia-improving effect equivalent to the previous medication, as well as to investigate changes in blood erythropoietin concentration, iron metabolism, and inflammatory cytokines and their causal relationship to the study drug.
