Brief Summary: The objective of this study was to treat anemic Hemoglobin Hb 12 gdL HIV-infected subjects with once weekly QW PROCRIT Epoetin alfa to a target Hb of 13 gdL and then to assess if the target Hb level and improvements in Quality of Life QOL could be maintained with every other week Q2W PROCRIT Epoetin alfa dosing
Detailed Description: This was a Phase IV open-label non-randomized multi-center study conducted in community based practices physicians networks or academic institutions in the US This study included anemic Hb 12 gdL HIV-infected subjects and HIVhepatitis C HCV co-infected subjects not receiving HCV treatment on a stable anti-retroviral therapy ART regimen for at least 4 weeks prior to enrollment

Quality of life assessments laboratory results and transfusion information were obtained during the study Laboratory tests vital signs blood pressure and incidence and severity of adverse events were collected and assessed

The primary objective of this study was to assess if every other week PROCRIT Epoetin alfa dosing can maintain quality of life in anemic HIV-infected patients The primary hypothesis of interest was that the mean quality of life score as measured by MOS-HIV General Health Perception score at the end of the every other week Q2W maintenance phase was not lower than that at the beginning of the maintenance phase by more than 7 points

It was anticipated that less frequent dosing every other week was more convenient for patients and will improve patient compliance The starting dose BaselineStudy Day 1 of PROCRIT Epoetin alfa for all eligible subjects was 40000 U given subcutaneously QW The maximum duration was 24 weeks Subjects who achieved target Hb levels 13 gdL were converted to a maintenance dose of PROCRIT Epoetin alfa sc Q2W
