About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Placebo-controlled Study of the Treatment of Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) by Ferric Pyrophosphate Citrate (FPC) Delivered Via Infusion Pump in Patients Receiving Home Infusion Therapy

The main purpose is to determine whether FPC, administered via infusion, is safe and effective for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in patients receiving Home Infusion therapies (HI).

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, multi-center, clinical trial of the safety and efficacy of FPC infusion for patients diagnosed with IDA receiving therapy home infusion therapy. The study will be open label placebo-controlled using an objective endpoint (Hgb). A total of 75 home infusion patients will be enrolled.

Subjects will be randomized to receive FPC starting at Day 1; Patients in the FPC arm will receive FPC 20 mg Fe IV by infusion over 12 hours every other day (qOD), for a total duration of up to 12 weeks plus a one-week follow-up after the last study drug treatment. For patients whose duration of therapy is >10 hours, patients will receive a 12-hour infusion of FPC. Patients in the placebo arms will receive IV placebo on the same schedule for 12 weeks.

What participants receive

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

  • Triferic AVNUDrug

    Also called Ferric Pyrophosphate Citrate (FPC)

    Triferic AVNU is an iron salt that is approved for the maintenance of Hgb in chronic kidney disease patients on hemodialysis. It is experimental in this study because it has not yet been approved for patients receiving home infusion therapy

  • PlaceboOther

    normal TPN solution without FPC on alternate days with TPN supplemented with multivitamins.

What is being measured

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

  1. The efficacy of FPC in treating Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) by FPC infusion in patients receiving Home Infusion therapies (HI).

    The efficacy will be done by assessing the change from baseline in serum iron to end of treatment (EoT). EoT is defined as the average of the last 2 bi-weekly Hgb values obtained at end of study or if the patient is prematurely terminated for any reason.

    Measured: Change from Baseline in serum iron at 17 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. The proportion of "patient responders,"

    ≥ 1 g/dL increase from baseline in Hgb.

    Measured: Change from Baseline in HgB at 17 weeks.

  2. Iron delivery to the erythron.

    estimated by change in serum reticulocyte count, reticulocyte hemoglobin (CHr) and soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) levels.

    Measured: Change from Baseline in CHr and sTfR levels at 17 weeks

  3. Need for rescue therapy

    The number of patients requiring oral iron, intravenous iron and/or blood /packed RBC transfusions and the amount of intravenous iron and blood/packed cell transfusions.

    Measured: up to 17 weeks

  4. Treatment (Patient) failure.

    Incidence and time to development of iron deficiency defined as serum ferritin < 100 µg/L and TSAT< 20% confirmed by a consecutive repeat value (any time ≥ 1 day and ≤ 2 weeks after the first value).

    Measured: up to 17 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Triferic AVNU in people with Iron Deficiency Anemia, run by Rockwell Medical Technologies, Inc..

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 10 inclusion and 16 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Nov 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Marc Hoffman (2489609009, mhoffman@rockwellmed.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The efficacy of FPC in treating Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) by FPC infusion in patients receiving Home Infusion therapies (HI). (time frame: Change from Baseline in serum iron at 17 weeks). 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 8 Nov 2021.
