Participant Flow

This study was terminated on July 31, 2008 as a result of a decision by Shire Pharmaceutical to permanently cease marketing Dynepo and withdraw the Marketing Authorisation. The decision was for commercial reasons, it was not the result of any safety signal. Not enough subjects completed the study to do any efficacy analyses.

Erythropoietin (EPO)-naive subjects were randomized to receive Dynepo (Epoetin delta) once weekly (QW) or twice weekly (BIW) and subjects who were already stable on EPO (doses \< or equal to 10,000 IU/week) were randomized to receive Dynepo once every 2 weeks (Q2W) or once weekly.
