Conditions
Summary
The CANNON trial is a prospective, open-label, randomized, multicenter study designed to investigate rational hemoglobin target value in patients with anemia of non-dialysis chronic kidney disease treated with enarodustat. Eligible patients are randomly assigned 1:1 to the high-hemoglobin target group （hemoglobin of 13 g/dl）and low-hemoglobin target group （hemoglobin of 11 g/dl）and administered with enarodustat to achieve and maintain target hemoglobin over 96 weeks. The first primary endpoint was the difference of mean change in 36-Item Short Form Health Survey at week 24. The second primary endpoint was safety endpoints included time to major adverse cardiovascular + event (MACE+; all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke, and congestive heart failure requiring hospitalization) during 96 weeks.

- Receiving ESA combined with roxadustat treatment at screening;
- History of proliferative retinopathy or diabetic retinopathy requiring ophthalmological treatment;
- Severe hyperparathyroidism (iPTH ≥ 500 pg/mL);
- Severe active infections (such as active tuberculosis, fungal infections, etc.);
- Patients who are bedridden or have difficulty walking, or have a history of atrial fibrillation or deep vein thrombosis of the lower limbs;
- History of active tumors;
- Female patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding, or non-childbearing women who do not agree to effective contraception;
- Patients with a history of severe drug allergies (such as anaphylactic shock), or known allergies to any of the active ingredients or excipients of enarodostat;
- Patients who are currently participating in any other interventional clinical trial;
- Other reasons determined by the investigator not suitable for participation in the study.
Interventions
Patients are administered with enarodustat with dosage adjusted according to hemoglobin levels to achieve and maintain hemoglobin target over 96 weeks.
