Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Roxadustat
Treatment: Drugs - Placebo

Experimental: Roxadustat - Participants will receive roxadustat tablets orally 3 times a week (TIW). The initial dose will be according to the tiered weight-based approach, with starting roxadustat doses of 70 milligrams (mg) TIW to participants weighing <70 kilograms (kg) and roxadustat doses of 100 mg TIW to participants weighing =70 kg. Dose-titration (up to a maximum dose of 300 mg) will be performed based upon regular measurement of Hb levels until the participant achieves central Hb value of =11.0 grams/deciliter (g/dL) and Hb increase from baseline (BL) of =1.0 g/dL at 2 consecutive study visits, separated by at least 5 days. Once target Hb level is reached, the participant will enter the maintenance period during which roxadustat dosage will be adjusted every 4 weeks to maintain participant's Hb level within the target range of 10.0 g/dL and 12.0 g/dL. The maximum treatment duration will be up to 234.9 weeks.

Placebo Comparator: Placebo - Participants will receive roxadustat-matching placebo tablets orally TIW. The initial dose will be according to the tiered weight-based approach, with starting roxadustat-matching placebo doses of 70 mg TIW to participants weighing <70 kg and roxadustat-matching placebo doses of 100 mg TIW to participants weighing =70 kg. Dose-titration (up to a maximum dose of 300 mg) will be performed based upon regular measurement of Hb levels until the participant achieves central Hb value of =11.0 g/dL and Hb increase from BL of =1.0 g/dL at 2 consecutive study visits, separated by at least 5 days. Once target Hb level is reached, the participant will enter the maintenance period during which roxadustat dosage will be adjusted every 4 weeks to maintain participant's Hb level within the target range of 10.0 g/dL and 12.0 g/dL. The maximum treatment duration will be up to 208.1 weeks.
