A Trial of Darbepoetin Alfa in Type 2 Diabetes and Chronic Kidney Disease
New England Journal of Medicine, 11/20/09
Pfeffer MA et al. – The use of darbepoetin alfa in patients with diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and moderate anemia who were not undergoing dialysis did not reduce the risk of either of the two primary composite outcomes (either death or a cardiovascular event or death or a renal event) and was associated with an increased risk of stroke. For many persons involved in clinical decision making, this risk will outweigh the potential benefits.
