Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 0 0
The primary endpoint will be the change in Hb concentration at 12 months or termination (dialysis, commencement of an ESA). Minimum permitted enrolment is 6 months.
Timepoint [1] 0 0
Secondary outcome [1] 0 0
The secondary endpoints will be the change in renal function (calculated creatinine clearance), the quality of life, the time taken to dialysis, the time from randomization to the requirement of an ESA and the number of hospitalization days.
Timepoint [1] 0 0

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
