What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Ferric Carboxymaltose (FCM)Drug

    2 doses at 15 mg/kg to a maximum 750 mg per dose for a total maximum cumulative dose of 1500 mg

  • Iron Sucrose (Venofer)Drug

    5 doses of 200 mg for a total cumulative dose of 1000 mg

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Mean Change From Baseline to the Highest Observed Hemoglobin Any Time From Baseline to End of Study.

    Measured: Day 56

  2. Proportion of Subjects Experiencing at Least One Event in the Primary Composite Safety Endpoint in the Randomized Population.

    The primary composite safety endpoint was defined as death due to any cause, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, unstable angina requiring hospitalization or medical intervention, arrhythmias, protocol-defined hypersensitive events, and protocol-defined hyposensitive events.

    Measured: Day 120

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Ferric Carboxymaltose (FCM) and Iron Sucrose (Venofer) in people with Iron Deficiency Anemia and Impaired Renal Function, run by American Regent, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Feb 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Oct 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Mean Change From Baseline to the Highest Observed Hemoglobin Any Time From Baseline to End of Study. (time frame: Day 56). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Feb 2018.
