Purpose
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of FG-4592 in maintaining and/or correcting hemoglobin (Hb) given to subjects with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) on maintenance hemodialysis and receiving epoetin alfa.

- Hemoglobin maintenance using FG-4592 dosing regimen in ESRD subjects. Number of subjects who hemoglobin levels are maintained at no lower than 0.5 g/dL below their mean baseline value during weeks 6 and 7. [ Time Frame: Week 7 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Number (%) of subjects whose hemoglobin levels are between 9.0 and 13.0 g/dL at Weeks 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7. [ Time Frame: Week 7 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Number (%) of subjects whose hemoglobin levels at Weeks 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 are greater than or equal to their baseline level. [ Time Frame: Week 7 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Detailed Description:
Dose ranging study with three consecutive dose escalation cohorts. The study objectives are to demonstrate that FG-4592 is effective in maintaining hemoglobin (Hb) levels when converting from epoetin alfa and to establish optimum starting doses and dose adjustment regimens for Hb maintenance.
Eligibility| Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years to 75 Years |
| Genders Eligible for Study: | Both |
| Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
