Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will assess the efficacy and safety of once monthly administration of Mircera in Filipino patients with chronic kidney disease who are either on dialysis or predialysis, and not receiving erythropoiesis stimulating agents.Patients will receive Mircera at a starting dose of 0.6 micrograms/kg sc every 2 weeks, with dose adjustments until a target hemoglobin level is achieved, and then dosing will continue every 4 weeks. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample is \<100 individuals.
