Filter by:This study employed a prospective, single-arm, global multi-center interventional open-label, non-randomized design to identify and assess safety profile of the crushed deferasirox FCT when administered up to 24 weeks in pediatric patients aged ≥2 to <6 years with transfusional hemosiderosis. The study was designed to enroll a minimum of 40 patients. Forty-four patients were treated and analyzed.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of deferasirox film coated tablet (FCT) versus phlebotomy for the management of iron overload in adults with HH at risk of iron-related morbidity. This evaluation will provide information on the two treatment options in terms of the rate of response of proportion of patients reaching the study target SF ≤ 100 μg/L and their associated safety profiles. In addition to exploring the safety and efficacy of deferasirox FCT in hereditary hemochromatosis (HH), this study is being conducted to fulfill an FDA post-marketing requirement [PMC 750-10 (Exjade) /PMR 2888-8 (Jadenu)] to provide additional randomized data to confirm the ocular safety profile of deferasirox through detailed ocular assessments in patients treated with deferasirox FCT for 2 years.
Pulmonary hemosiderosis (PH) is a pulmonary hemosiderin deposition which caused by alveolar capillary hemorrhage. PH is easy to recurrent and can lead to pulmonary fibrosis and insufficiency if the disease was poor controlled. Steroid is the most common drug that was administered in acute phase of the disease. However, considered the side-effects, steroid is not suitable for long-time maintenance. Therefore, it is necessary to explore a new therapy. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) are a kind of adult stem cells with high self-renewal and multi-directional differentiation potential in bone marrow. It has become a hot topic in immunosuppressive and tissue repair therapy in recent years. To date, homing, colonization and differentiation of BMSCs in the lung have been observed in animal models of pulmonary hypertension, radiation pneumonitis and pulmonary fibrosis. It had been reported that BMSC transplantation in acute lung injury in mice, inflammation of lung injury can significantly improve. The aim of this study is to explore the effect of BMSC on PH and its mechanism, and to explore a new way to promote the repair of IPH. It is expected to improve the status of IPH therapy in children, especially improve the prognosis of refractory PH.
The main objective of this study is to compare the distribution of Florbetaben (NEURACEQ: FBB) in the brain in amyloid cerebral angiopathy (ACA) manifested by isolated hemosiderosis in non-demented patients with that observed in healthy subjects, patients with ACA and with lobar hematoma(s) and patients with Alzheimer's dementia without MRI signs in favor of ACA.
The purpose of this multi-site research is to validate a rapid magnetic resonance based confounder-corrected R-2 mapping method as a quantitative imaging biomarker of liver iron concentrations.
Patients with hereditary haemochromatosis will be interviewed/questioned about their Quality of life and the delivered quality of care in the hospital.
The purpose of this open-label study is to assess liver iron concentration using MRI imaging in subjects with beta-thalassemia when administered with either SPD602 or deferasirox for the treatment of chronic transfusional iron overload.
Hypothesis: Deferasirox can be used as a therapeutic agent to deplete the liver, heart and bone marrow of excess iron in patients with iron overload caused by myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and hemochromatosis (HC. Assess the effect of new serum biomarkers (NTBI and hepcidin) and MRI as indicators of iron overload and their usefulness to monitor iron depletion treatment. Study the effect of iron overload and iron depletion on intracellular signal transduction, trace metals concentrations in serum and urine and markers of oxidative stress in blood cells and urine.
To investigate effect of genetic variations on the toxicities and find optimal target population, the investigators planned to analyze the genetic polymorphisms of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase.
The purpose of this study is to validate magnetic resonance imaging as a biomarker of hepatic iron concentration (HIC). Excessive accumulation of iron in the body is highly toxic, specifically in the liver. Accurate, non-invasive assessment of HIC is needed for diagnosis, quantitative staging and treatment monitoring or hepatic iron overload.
