Daprodustat, sold under the brand name Duvroq among others, is a medication that is used for the treatment of anemia due to chronic kidney disease. [2] It is a hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor. [2] It is taken by mouth. [2] [3] [4]
The most common side effects include high blood pressure, thrombotic vascular events, abdominal pain, dizziness, and allergic reactions. [3] [4]
Daprodustat was approved for medical use in Japan in June 2020, [5] [6] and in the United States in February 2023. [2] [3] [7] [8] making it the first oral treatment for anemia caused by chronic kidney disease for adults in the US. [3] The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers it to be a first-in-class medication. [9]
Daprodustat is indicated for the treatment of anemia due to chronic kidney disease. [2]
Daprodustat increases erythropoietin levels. [3]
The FDA label for daprodustat has a boxed warning for an increased risk of thrombotic vascular (blood clotting) events including death, heart attack, stroke, and blood clots in the lung, legs, or dialysis access site. [4]
The most common side effects include high blood pressure, thrombotic vascular events, abdominal pain, dizziness, and allergic reactions. [3] [4]
The efficacy and safety of daprodustat were evaluated in 2,964 adults with anemia due to chronic kidney disease on dialysis and receiving an erythropoiesis-stimulating agent at the time of study entry in a randomized, sponsor-blind, active-controlled, global, multicenter, event-driven clinical trial (ASCEND-D; NCT02879305). [4] [10] Participants were stratified by dialysis type and were required to be on dialysis for at least four months prior to the first dose of daprodustat. [4] Participants on hemodialysis were randomized 1:1 to receive oral daprodustat (N=1,316) or intravenous epoetin alfa (N=1,308) while participants on peritoneal dialysis were randomized 1:1 to receive oral daprodustat (N=171) or subcutaneous darbepoetin alfa (N=169). [4] In this study, adults received either oral daprodustat or injected recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) (a standard of care treatment for people with anemia due to chronic kidney disease). [3] [4] Daprodustat raised and maintained the hemoglobin (the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen and is a common measure of anemia) within the target range of 10 to 11 g/dL, similar to that of the rhEPO treatment. [3] [4] The trial was conducted at 431 sites in 35 countries. [4]
The FDA granted the approval of Jesduvroq to GlaxoSmithKline LLC. [3]
Due to its potential applications in athletic doping, it has also been incorporated into screens for performance-enhancing drugs. [11]
Daprodustat is in phase III clinical trials for the treatment of anemia caused by chronic kidney disease. [12] [13] [14]
