NCT00717366
Brief Summary:
This sequential study will assess the efficacy and safety of multiple doses of intravenous (IV) methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta (MIRCERA), and will determine the optimum starting dose for maintenance treatment of anemia in children with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis. Pediatric participants will remain on epoetin alfa, epoetin beta or darbepoetin alfa during the screening period, after which they will receive IV MIRCERA monthly, at a starting dose related to the previous weekly epoetin or darbepoetin alfa dose. Depending on the response achieved, another group may be selected to receive a higher or a lower dose.
