Can fixing anemia save failing kidney transplants?
NCT ID NCT00396435
Summary
This study tested whether using a medication (Neorecormon®) to raise hemoglobin levels in anemic kidney transplant patients could improve their quality of life and slow the decline of their transplanted kidney's function. It involved 128 patients in France who were randomly assigned to aim for either a higher or lower hemoglobin target. The main goal was to see if the higher hemoglobin target better preserved kidney function over two years.
