Abstract

Prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors (PHIs) are oral agents that might increase availability of anemia treatment options for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The 36-Item Short Form (SF-36) Vitality score is a patient-reported measure of energy/fatigue – common and important outcomes in patients with CKD. Direct comparative evidence on health-related quality of life from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) between PHIs has not been identified. We conducted an indirect treatment comparison (ITC) of changes in SF-36 Vitality score observed in placebo-controlled RCTs of daprodustat and roxadustat.
