Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Cohort A: Roxadustat Tiered, Weight Based Dosing TIW

Participants will receive roxadustat capsules, administered orally 3 times weekly (TIW) for 16 weeks. Initial roxadustat dose will be based on a tiered, weight-based dosing scheme (low-weight \[45 to 60 kilograms (kg)\], medium-weight \[\>60 to 90 kg\], and heavy-weight \[\>90 to 140 kg\] participants will receive 60, 100, and 140 milligrams \[mg\] roxadustat, respectively). Dose adjustments will be implemented (up to a maximum roxadustat dose of 2.2 mg/kg per dose) every 4 weeks starting Week 5 to maintain Hb levels at 11-13 g/dL.

Cohort B: Roxadustat Tiered, Weight Based Dosing TIW then BIW

Participants will receive roxadustat capsules orally for 16 weeks. Initial roxadustat dose will be based on a tiered, weight-based dosing scheme (low-weight \[45 to 60 kg\], medium-weight \[\>60 to 90 kg\], and heavy-weight \[\>90 to 140 kg\] participants will receive 60, 100, and 140 mg roxadustat, respectively). Dose adjustments will be implemented (up to a maximum roxadustat dose of 2.2 mg/kg per dose) every 4 weeks starting Week 5 to maintain Hb levels at 11-13 g/dL. Participants will have a dose frequency reduction from TIW to 2 times a week (BIW) at the time of the initial Hb response.

Cohort C: Roxadustat at 50 mg TIW

Participants will receive roxadustat capsules at 50 mg, administered orally TIW for 24 weeks. Dose adjustments will be implemented (up to a maximum roxadustat dose of 2.2 mg/kg per dose) every 4 weeks starting Week 5 to maintain Hb levels at 10.5-12 g/dL.

Cohort D: Roxadustat at 100 mg TIW

Participants will receive roxadustat capsules at 100 mg, administered orally TIW for 24 weeks. Dose adjustments will be implemented (up to a maximum roxadustat dose of 2.2 mg/kg per dose) every 4 weeks starting Week 5 to maintain Hb levels at 10.5-12 g/dL.

Cohort E: Roxadustat Tiered, Weight Based Dosing BIW then QW

Participants will receive roxadustat capsules for 24 weeks. Initial roxadustat dose will be based on a tiered, weight-based dosing scheme (low-weight \[45 to 60 kg\], medium-weight \[\>60 to 90 kg\], and heavy-weight \[\>90 to 140 kg\] participants will receive 70, 100, and 150 mg roxadustat, respectively). Dose adjustments will be implemented (up to a maximum roxadustat dose of 2.5 mg/kg per dose) every 4 weeks starting Week 5 to maintain Hb levels at 11-13 g/dL. Participants will have a dose frequency reduction from BIW to 1 time a week (QW) at the time of the initial Hb response.

Cohort F: Roxadustat at 70 mg BIW then QW

Participants will receive roxadustat capsules at 70 mg for 24 weeks. Dose adjustments will be implemented (up to a maximum roxadustat dose of 2.5 mg/kg per dose) every 4 weeks starting Week 5 to maintain Hb levels at 11-13 g/dL. Participants will have a dose frequency reduction from TIW to BIW at the time of the initial Hb response. Then after \>8 weeks of stable Hb, dose frequency will be reduced from BIW to QW.
