Abstract

BACKGROUND: Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors are an oral treatment for anemia of chronic kidney disease (CKD). In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we assessed long-term safety of HIF prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors. METHODS: We searched MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane databases for randomized trials comparing HIF prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors with an erythropoiesis-stimulating agent (ESA) or placebo with greater than or equal to 48 weeks of follow-up. The primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE), defined as a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, or stroke. Treatment effects were pooled using random-effects models. RESULTS: Twenty-five trials involving 26,478 participants were included. Of these, 13 trials enrolled 13,230 participants with dialysis-dependent CKD, and 12 trials enrolled 13,248 participants with nondialysis-dependent CKD. There was no evidence that HIF prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors and ESA had different effects on MACE in people with dialysis-dependent CKD (risk ratio, 0.99; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.92 to 1.08) or people with nondialysis-dependent CKD (risk ratio, 1.08; 95% CI, 0.95 to 1.22). Similarly, there was no evidence that HIF prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors and placebo had different effects on MACE (risk ratio, 1.10; 95% CI, 0.96 to 1.27) in people with nondialysis-dependent CKD. The lack of difference between HIF prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors and ESA or placebo was observed for individual components of MACE and cardiovascular death. Safety of HIF prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors for other outcomes was comparable with ESA in dialysis-dependent CKD. In nondialysis-dependent CKD, dialysis access thrombosis, venous thromboembolism, infections, and hyperkalemia occurred more frequently with HIF prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors in placebo-controlled trials but not in ESA-controlled trials. CONCLUSIONS: There was no evidence of a difference in the long-term cardiovascular safety profile of HIF prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors and ESA in adults with dialysis-dependent CKD and adults with nondialysis-dependent CKD.
