Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Change from baseline in the average Hemoglobin (Hb)
Baseline and Weeks 18 to 24
Change from baseline in hemoglobin (Hb) response rate
Baseline and week 24

Hb response is defined as reaching target values for Hb.

Change From Baseline in Hb Over Time
Baseline, Weeks 8, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, 168, 192, 216, 240, 252, 264, 288, 312, 336, 360, and 384

Hb baseline was defined as the mean of the central laboratory Hb value from the baseline visit at Day 1 (prior to receiving the first dose of study drug in this study), plus any other central lab Hb values within 15 days prior to Day 1 regardless of fasting. The specific duration over which the participants were assessed was identified as "over time" for the endpoint in the study protocol. Therefore, to be consistent with the endpoint in the study protocol, an individual timepoint was not identified for this primary outcome measure.

Number (%) of Participants With an Hb Response by Week 17
Up to Week 17

An Hb response was defined as a Hb level of ≥11 g/dL and an increase from BL ≥1 g/dL.

Primary Safety Outcome Measure: Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious TEAEs, Severe TEAEs, Drug-Related TEAEs, and TEAEs Leading to Treatment Discontinuation (Parts 1 and 2 Combined)
Baseline up to Week 16 (End of Study (EoS])

An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical event in a participant who received study drug whether or not the event is considered drug related. TEAEs defined as an AE beginning after first dose of study drug until 28 days after last dose of study drug or existing AEs that worsened after first dose of study drug until the participant's last study visit. Severe AEs defined as incapacitating, inability to perform usual activities. Drug-related TEAEs defined as TEAEs with possible, probable, or definite relationship to study drug. Serious AE criteria included death, life-threatening, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability or incapacity, congenital anomaly or birth defect, or an important medical event that jeopardized participant and required medical intervention to prevent 1 of the outcomes listed here. A summary of other non-serious AEs and all serious AEs, regardless of causality is located in Reported AE section.

Co-Primary Efficacy Outcome Measure: Change From Baseline in Hb at Day 26-29 (End of Treatment)
Baseline, End of Treatment (EoT) (Day 26 for TIW Dosing or Day 29 for BIW Dosing)

Mean Hb change from baseline was analyzed by treatment group and study visit. Baseline was defined as the mean of last 3 available values prior to the first dose.

Co-Primary Efficacy Outcome Measure: Change From Baseline in Hb at Week 8 (2 Weeks of Follow Up)
Baseline, Week 8 (2 Weeks of Follow Up)

Mean Hb change from baseline was analyzed by treatment group and study visit. Baseline is defined as the mean of last 3 available values prior to the first dose.

RoxadustatEXPERIMENTALParticipants previously randomized to roxadustat will receive roxadustat at the same dose and frequency assigned at the last dose in the previous FibroGen study. Dose adjustments will be implemented (up to a maximum roxadustat dose of 3.0 mg/kg or 400 mg, whichever is lower) every 4 weeks to maintain Hb levels at 10.0-12 grams (g)/deciliter (dL). However, if a participant, at any dose, experiences an event of excessive hematopoiesis then the participant's dose will be immediately reduced, or an event of rapidly declining Hb then the participant's dose will be immediately increased. Participants will be permitted to receive roxadustat for up to 8 years.
