Dataset from Correction of Hemoglobin and Outcomes In Renal Insufficiency

The purpose of this study is to compare the outcomes of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) randomly assigned to 2 treatment groups, which differ only in their targeted hemoglobin levels. This study will test the primary hypothesis that the level of anemia correction with once weekly dosing of PROCRIT® (Epoetin alfa) in patients with chronic kidney disease will decrease mortality and cardiovascular morbidity.
