Background
Roxadustat has been shown effective in lowering serum cholesterol in treating patients with anemia due to chronic kidney disease. However, its effect on serum triglyceride (TG), especially in dialysis patients that have high prevalence of hypertriglyceridemia remains unknow. This analysis is to provide clinical data of Roxadustat on serum TG in a real-world prospective observational cohort.
Methods
This is a multicenter, prospective, longitudinal observational cohort study assessing if Roxadustat improves prognosis in at least 250 dialysis patients with renal anemia. Primary outcomes will be major cardiovascular events. The current analysis was done in the enrolled 144 patients to compare the changes of serum TG from baseline to current follow up. The analysis was done in the whole cohort and subgroups according to baseline serum TG level.
Results
Till May 20, 2020. 144 dialysis participants (76 male, mean age 52+/-15 years) were enrolled from 11 sites of the study with a follow up of 8 (0~12) weeks. The primary disease of kidney failure was predominantly primary glomerulonephritis (67 cases, 46.5 %) and diabetes (28 cases, 19.4%). The serum TG at baseline and at the last follow up was 2.06+/-1.58 mmol/L (range from 0.14 to 12.04 mmol/L) and 1.90+/-1.09mmol/L respectively (p=0.162). In patients with TG greater than 1.7mmol/L, serum TG decreased significantly (n=53, 2.59+/-1.06 vs. 3.09+/-1.75 mmol/L, p=0.028) after Roxadustat treatment with -0.50mmol/L (95%CI: -0.05, 0.95mmol/L).
Conclusion
Hypertriglyceridemia is prevalent in ROAD cohort. Roxadustat could alter serum TG, especially lowering its level in dialysis anemia patients with hypertriglyceridemia which should be confirmed in future studies.
