Background: Erythropoietin resistance is present in some patients with chronic kidney disease, especially in those undergoing hemodialysis, and is often treated using roxadustat rather than iron supplements and erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs). However, some patients cannot afford full doses of roxadustat. This retrospective study investigated the efficacy of low-dose roxadustat combined with recombinant human erythropoietin (rhuEPO) therapy in 39 patients with erythropoietin-resistant renal anemia undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (3-4 sessions/week). Methods: The ability of the combination of low-dose roxadustat and rhuEPO to increase the hemoglobin concentration over 12 weeks was assessed. Markers of iron metabolism were evaluated. Eligible adults received 50-60% of the recommended dose of roxadustat and higher doses of rhuEPO. Results: The mean hemoglobin level increased from 77.67 ± 11.18 g/dL to 92.0 ± 8.35 g/dL after treatment, and the hemoglobin response rate increased to 72%. The mean hematocrit level significantly increased from 24.26 ± 3.99% to 30.04 ± 3.69%. The soluble transferrin receptor level increased (27.29 ± 13.60 mg/L to 38.09 ± 12.78 mg/L), while the total iron binding capacity (49.22 ± 11.29 mg/L to 43.91 ± 12.88 mg/L) and ferritin level (171.05 ± 54.75 ng/mL to 140.83 ± 42.03 ng/mL) decreased. Conclusion: Therefore, in patients with ESA-resistant anemia who are undergoing hemodialysis, the combination of low-dose roxadustat and rhuEPO effectively improves renal anemia and iron metabolism.
