Filter by:This study is designed to investigate whether the treatment of non-anemic iron deficiency with intervenous iron sucrose will result in decreased symptom reporting and improved cardiovascular indices in adolescents (age 12-21) with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS).
The primary efficacy objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of ferric carboxymaltose on mitochondrial gene activation pattern after 12 weeks of treatment.
Managing iron deficiency is important for more than 1 billion individuals worldwide, to avoid blood transfusions, or excessive strain on vital organs that depend on iron-containing haemoglobin to deliver oxygen to the tissues. Iron deficiency is a particular problem for people with the inherited condition hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT). Their iron deficiency and anaemia results from blood losses, especially from the nose (nosebleeds, and they often need additional iron to replace that lost through bleeding. Our goal is to stratify HHT patients into high/low absorbers of iron; to define what extra iron they need to adjust for their current and likely future blood losses; and to work out how to achieve this most safely for each individual to improve their later health. We will test the hypothesis that informed assessment of iron intake and post absorption cellular profiles changes the recommendations for iron intake for HHT patients.
The goal of this study is to gain further insight into the comparative effectiveness of treating patients, who are found to be anemic before their elective surgery, with a series of weekly subcutaneous doses of a drug given before surgery, which stimulates the natural production of red blood cells (a so-called erythropoietic stimulating agent [ESA]) along with intravenous iron, in reducing the need for blood transfusions (donated by someone other than the patient) during and after adult total hip arthroplasty (hip replacement surgery). The effects of a Preoperative Anemia Management Program (PAMP) on the patient's quality of recovery, health-related quality of life, fatigue, and rehabilitation pattern after surgery will also be examined. A cost-effectiveness analysis will be performed to compare the cost of these commercially available, FDA-approved medications versus the cost of transfused blood
The hypothesis to be tested is whether treatment with intravenous iron (ferric carboxymaltose) will improve left-ventricular ejection fraction in patients with heart failure and iron deficiency as determined by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.
Study AMAG-FER-CKD-253 is an extension study of the combined AMAG-FER-CKD-251 (NCT01155375) and AMAG-FER-CKD-252 (NCT01155388) studies to evaluate the efficacy and safety of episodic treatment of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) with ferumoxytol.
Study evaluating the efficacy and safety of intravenous (IV) ferumoxytol compared with oral iron for the treatment of pediatric participants with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Study evaluating the efficacy and safety of intravenous (IV) ferumoxytol compared with oral iron for the treatment of pediatric participants with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Multicentre, randomised, controlled, 2-arm open-label prospective pilot study to evaluate efficacy and safety of ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) in treatment of anaemia in subjects with multiple myeloma (MM) initiating chemotherapy. The subjects will be screened for eligibility within 4 weeks prior to inclusion and randomised to receive intravenous infusions of FCM or standard care (the subjects may be treated according to the local institutional practice if requiring symptomatic management of anaemia). Thereafter the visits are scheduled at Weeks 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8.
200 patients with post partum anemia will be randomised to receive either intravenous iron (intervention group) or peroral iron (control group). The hypothesis is that intravenous iron supplementation is superior to standard peroral iron.
