A First-in-human, Two-part (Open Label, and Randomized/Double Blind/Placebo Controlled), Single- and Repeat-dose Study of CSJ137 in Erythropoietin-treated Chronic Hemodialysis Patients With Functional Iron-deficiency Anemia
The study will assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of CSJ137 in chronic hemodialysis patients. It is hypothesized that treatment with CSJ137 may improve the level of hemoglobin in patients on chronic hemodialysis with iron-restricted anemia while reducing the need for dosing with erythropoietin and intravenous iron in these patients.
