Changes in erythropoiesis-stimulating agent responsiveness after transfer to combined therapy with peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis for patients on peritoneal dialysis : A prospective multicenter study in Japan

INTRODUCTION: Inadequate dialysis and fluid overload are corrected after starting combined therapy with peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD). However, the effects on anemia management has not been elucidated.

METHODS: We conducted a prospective, multicenter, observational cohort study of 40 PD patients (age, 60 ± 10 years; male, 88%; median PD duration, 28 months) starting combined therapy and investigated changes in several clinical parameters, including erythropoiesis-stimulating agent (ESA) resistance index (ERI).

RESULTS: ERI decreased significantly during 6 months after switching to combined therapy (from 11.8 [IQR 8.0-20.4] units/week/kg/(g/dL) to 7.8 [IQR 3.9-18.6] units/week/kg/(g/dL), p = 0.047). Body weight, urinary volume, serum creatinine and the dialysate-to-plasma creatinine ratio (D/P Cr) decreased, whereas hemoglobin and serum albumin increased. In subgroup analysis, the changes in ERI were not affected by cause for starting combined therapy, PD holiday and D/P Cr.

CONCLUSION: Although detailed mechanism was unclear, ESA responsiveness improved after switching from PD alone to combined therapy.
