摘要
Background: Erythropoiesis-stimulating agents, for example epoetin beta pegol which is a continuous erythropoietin receptor activator (CERA), and darbepoetin alfa (DPO), are recently introduced into clinical practice for the treatment of anemia in hemodialysis patients. Here, we compared the effects of CERA and DPO on erythropoiesis and iron kinetics in hemodialysis patients. Methods: In this open label, single arm trial, after 40 μg/week of DPO administration, 75 μg/2 weeks of CERA was administered during 14 days in 7 hemodialysis patients without clinically overt inflammation or infection. Serum parameters of erythropoietic activity (hemoglobin) and iron kinetics (hepcidin-25 [hepcidin], ferritin, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and transferrin saturation [TSAT]) were evaluated during the study periods. Results: DPO significantly increased the hemoglobin levels above the baseline, as compared to the insignificant increase by CERA. Suppression of serum ferritin was more significant during CERA than DPO (P = 0.018), while TSAT or serum hepcidin did not differ significantly between CERA and DPO (TSAT, P = 0.866; hepcidin, P = 0.063). Our results suggested that, under conditions indicating a significantly weaker effect of CERA than DPO on erythroblastosis, the greater suppression of serum ferritin by CERA might indicate its potent effect on iron utilization. Conclusions: The effect of CERA administered once every 2 weeks exhibited no less potent effect in terms of iron utilization than that of DPO administered every week. © 2016 The Author(s).
