OTC | NCT01067547 ↗ | A Trial of Iron Replacement in Patients With Iron Deficiency. | Completed | Richard Fedorak | Phase 4 | 2010-03-01 | Primary Hypothesis: There is no difference in the efficacy of iron replacement by oral or intravenous route in Inflammatory Bowel Disease patients. Iron deficiency anaemia is a common problem in people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and patients with excessive blood loss from the bowel or heavy menstrual loss. Treatment options include a blood transfusion, oral iron with (Ferrograd ®) or intravenous iron replacement with iron sucrose (Venofer®). Iron deficiency anaemia is associated with poor quality of life, poor concentration span and low energy level. Blood transfusion may improve symptomatic anaemia quickly but there is a risk of transfusion reaction and blood born infection transmission. Moreover, packed cells are scarce resource therefore its use needs to be carefully prioritized. Oral iron supplement has been widely used and it can be purchased over the counter, however, its efficacy is not known in IBD population. Oral iron is poorly tolerated with side effects include altered bowel habit, nausea and darken stools, making it difficult to adhere to. In contrast, intravenous iron therapy with Venofer® has been shown to replenish iron store and improve anaemia quickly. To date, the safety of Venofer® use has been supported by its post marketing surveillance. Limitations with intravenous iron replacement include the need for medical supervision in the setting of limited healthcare resources; the need for patients to take multiple days off work and the cost of Venofer®. Currently it is uncertain which method of iron replacement is better. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and the cost of oral and intravenous iron replacement in the setting of iron deficiency anaemia. |

NCT00145652 ↗ | Adjuvant I.V. Iron Therapy During Erythropoetin Treatment of Anemic Patients With Lymphoproliferative Disorders. | Completed | Sundsvall Hospital | Phase 3 | 2003-12-01 | This is a multi-center open label, randomized phase-3 study with stratification according to diagnosis and baseline serum-EPO level. The correction of mild or moderate anemia and the effect on iron kinetics by the rHuEPO treatment with or without intravenous iron supplementation in anemic patients with LPD not receiving antineoplastic therapy will be studied. The study will be performed according to the ICH-GCP guidelines. In order to be eligible, the patient must consent in writing that he/she agrees to participate in the study. The patient recruitment period is estimated to be no longer than 18 months. |
NCT00236938 ↗ | Efficacy and Safety of Venofer (Iron Sucrose Injection USP) in Patients Receiving Peritoneal Dialysis | Completed | American Regent, Inc. | Phase 3 | 2002-07-01 | This is a open-label, prospective study comparing intravenous (IV) iron supplementation to standard care in anemic patents undergoing peritoneal dialysis. |
NCT00236938 ↗ | Efficacy and Safety of Venofer (Iron Sucrose Injection USP) in Patients Receiving Peritoneal Dialysis | Completed | Luitpold Pharmaceuticals | Phase 3 | 2002-07-01 | This is a open-label, prospective study comparing intravenous (IV) iron supplementation to standard care in anemic patents undergoing peritoneal dialysis. |
NCT00236977 ↗ | Comparison of Safety and Efficacy of Intravenous Iron Versus Oral Iron in Chronic Renal Failure Subjects With Anemia | Completed | American Regent, Inc. | Phase 3 | 2003-08-01 | To assess the safety and efficacy of two forms of iron therapy for the treatment of anemia in non-dialysis dependent, chronic renal failure in patients receiving or not receiving erythropoietin. |
