What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluate the Safety of the Maximum Administered Dose, 15 mg/kg (up to a Maximum 1,000 mg) of FCM Compared to SMC.

    Evaluate the safety of the maximum administered dose, 15 mg/kg (up to a maximum 1,000 mg) of FCM compared to SMC. The primary safety endpoint was the incidence of Serious Adverse Events (SAE's).

    Measured: From Day 0 through 30 days after the last dose of study drug.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Ferric Carboxymaltose and Standard Medical Care (SMC) in people with Anemia, 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 2 inclusion and 10 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 29 May 2015). 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?

Evaluate the Safety of the Maximum Administered Dose, 15 mg/kg (up to a Maximum 1,000 mg) of FCM Compared to SMC. (time frame: From Day 0 through 30 days after the last dose of study drug.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00548860, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?
