Erythropoietin (EPO) has been reported to slow the decline of renal function in predialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. On the contrary, in the recent large-scale randomized controlled trial (RCT), CREATE and CHOIR, which aimed to keep a higher haemoglobin (Hb) level than former trials, the renoprotective effect of EPO was not observed. Today, the renoprotective effect of EPO has become controversial. In order to test the hypothesis that the usage of EPO in predialysis CKD patients may ameliorate the progression of renal disease, we conducted a macro-level observational study dealing with all Japanese predialysis CKD patients.
