Sickle Cell Disease Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Prospective Randomized Comparative Study of Efficacy and Safety of Combined Deferiprone (DFP) and Deferasirox Versus DFP and Desferrioxamine (DFO) Therapy in Diseases With Severe Iron Overload
Interventional Allocation: Randomized Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study of
combined chelation therapy Masking: Open Label Primary Purpose: Treatment of transfusional
iron overload
Primary Outcome Measures:
• The primary outcome measure is to assess efficacy in lowering serum ferritin level(the
change in serum ferritin compared to baseline) with combining DFP and deferasirox compared
to combined DFP and DFO in conditions with severe chronic iron overload; showing an up-trend
of SF over previous 12 months on single chelator.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
• The secondary outcome measure is to determine the number of patients who will develop
adverse events in order to assess safety upon administering the drugs in combination (DFP
and DFX) compared to the combination of DFO and DFP.

Inclusion Criteria: - Subjects with transfusional iron overload secondary to thalassemia major , sickle cell disease showing up-trend in SF aged 6 Years or older, may participate after Approval of Ethical committee giving written informed consent. - Subjects must have a serum ferritin greater than >2500 ng/mL, a platelet count greater than 100,000/mm3, and a serum creatinine within the normal range. - A woman of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening. She must use a medically acceptable form of birth control during the study and for 1 month afterward. - The subjects must also have a level of understanding and willingness to cooperate with the confinement and procedures described in the consent form and scheduled by the study site. In addition, he/she must be able to provide voluntary written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: - Subjects with a past history of agranulocytosis, history of clinically significant gastrointestinal, renal, hepatic ALT > 10 times high normal, OR > 50% increase of serum creatinine from basal value, pulmonary or cardiovascular disease. Patients with a history of tuberculosis, epilepsy, psychosis, glaucoma or any other condition, which in the opinion of the investigators, would jeopardize the safety of the subject or impact the validity of the study results. - Subjects with HIV positive or have active HCV. - A history of serious immunologic hypersensitivity to any medication, such as anaphylaxis or angioedema. - Participation in a previous investigational drug study within the 30 days preceding screening.. - Women who are pregnant, or breast-feeding. - Current alcohol or drug abuse. - An inability to adhere to the designated procedures and restrictions of this protocol. - Subjects receiving warfarin, digoxin, or anti-arrhythmic or anti-seizure medications. - Subjects with a known allergy to Exjade or DFP that prevents chronic administration. |
