Trial Purpose

Anaemia is a condition in which blood has a lower than normal number of red blood cells. It can also occur if red blood cells do not contain enough haemoglobin, an oxygen carrying part of blood. Anaemia is common in patients with chronic kidney disease. Healthy kidneys produce a hormone called erythropoietin, which stimulates the bone marrow to produce the proper number of red blood cells needed to carry oxygen to vital organs. Chronic kidney disease is a general term that means that the kidneys are not functioning to their full potential. The study drug, BAY85-3934, is being evaluated as a drug to increase the body’s ability to produce erythropoietin.
The purpose of this extension study is to find out if the study drug, a tablet taken orally, is safe and effective for the treatment of anaemia associated with chronic kidney disease.
The extension study will enroll up to 240 patients at multiple locations in Europe, Asia and Australia. Patients who participated in Studies 15141 or 15261 may be eligible to take part in the extension study. The study consists of the Haemoglobin (Hb) Stabilisation Phase and the Main Phase. The Hb Stabilisation Phase involves up to 10 study visits scheduled over 16 weeks. The Main Phase will last for at least 6 months and up to a maximum of 36 months, with visits every 4 weeks. During these scheduled visits patients will undergo a number of procedures to confirm efficacy and safety of the study drug, including measurement of heart rate and blood pressure, physical examination, Electrocardiogram and blood/urine sample collection for laboratory tests.
The study will be conducted at 5 hospitals in the UK.
Bayer HealthCare AG is funding this research.
This study will include subjects who either completed the treatment period in their respective Phase 2 parent study (i.e., Study 15141 or Study 15261) or experienced a stopping event in the fixed dose parent study (Study 15141). As Study 15141 is a double-blind study, subjects will be unblinded as per the Study 15141 protocol prior to entry into the extension study.

Inclusion Criteria
- Men who agree to use adequate contraception when sexually active or women without childbearing potential
- Not on dialysis at study entry
- Serum ferritin levels ≥ 100 μg/L and < 1000 μg/L or transferrin saturation ≥ 20% 
- Inclusion criteria for inclusion into the Hb Stabilization (HbS) Phase: Requires Hb stabilization (at 10.0 to 12..0g/dL for a minimum of 4 weeks) as follows: Received BAY 85-3934 and reached a stopping event in Study 15141 or received placebo and reached a stopping event in Study 15141 or completed 16 weeks of treatment with BAY 85-3934 in Study 15141or 15261 but had mean Hb during the evaluation period outside the target range of 10.0 to 12.0 g/dL, or Completed 16 weeks of treatment with placebo in Study 15141 and was re-assessed at 4 weeks after end of study as eligible for Study 15653 (this study)
- Inclusion criteria for inclusion into the Main Phase: Mean Hb concentration of 10.0 to 12.0 g/dL who completed 16 weeks of treatment (BAY85-3934 arm) in Study 15141, or completed 16 weeks of treatment (BAY-3934 or darbepoetin arm)in study 15261 without a dose suspension lasting > 6 consecutive weeks, or mean Hb concentration of 10.0 to 12.0g/dL during the HbS phase of Study 15653 for a minimum of 4 weeks after visit 3.
Exclusion Criteria
- A scheduled kidney transplant or any other organ transplant within the next 6 months (being on a waiting list does not exclude the subject)

- Phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor (e.g., sildenafil, vardenafil, tadalafil) or nitrates
- Sustained, poorly controlled arterial hypertension or hypotension at baseline, defined as blood pressure ≥ 180/110 mmHg or systolic blood pressure < 95 mmHg, respectively
- Severe rhythm or conduction disorders (e.g., heart rate [HR] < 50 or > 110 bpm, atrial flutter, prolonged QT > 500 msec, second or third degree atrioventricular [AV] block), if not reacted with a pace marker)
- New York Heart Association Class III or IV congestive heart failure
- Severe hepatic insufficiency (defined as alanine aminotransferase [ALT], aspartate aminotransferase [AST]>3x the upper limit of normal [ULN], total bilirubin > 2 mg/dL, or Child Pugh B or C) or active hepatitis, in the investigator’s opinion
- An ongoing serious adverse event (SAE) from Study 15141 or Study 15261 that is assessed as related to study drug
