TGA annotations:

Demonstration of efficacy in renal anaemia will support extrapolation to other indications of the reference medicinal product with the same route of administration. It is recommended that potential safety issues in different populations be addressed by conducting clinical studies in the different populations (e.g. renal anaemia and cancer patients).
