Shots:
- The MHRA has granted marketing authorization for Vafseo (HIF-PH inhibitor) to treat symptomatic anemia associated with CKD in adults on chronic maintenance dialysis
- The approval was based on the results from a comprehensive development program for 7500 patients, incl. the P-III program (INNO2VATE) of vadadustat. In each of the two (INNO2VATE) studies, vadadustat met the primary & secondary efficacy EPs which showed non-inferiority to darbepoetin alfa as measured by a mean change in Hb b/w baseline, primary evaluation period (24-36wks.) & secondary evaluation period (40-52wks.)
