  • Subjects who are pregnant or nursing. In order to avoid pregnancy, women have to be postmenopausal (at least 12 months since last menstruation), surgically sterile, or use one of the following contraceptives during the whole study period and after the study has ended for at least 5 times plasma biological half-life of the investigational medicinal product: intrauterine devices and hormonal contraceptives (contraceptive pills, implants, transdermal patches, vaginal devices, or hormonal injections with prolonged release)

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Prospective, Double-Blind, Comparative Placebo-Controlled Study of Intravenous Iron Isomaltoside 1000 (Monofer®) Administered by Infusions to Iron-Deficient Blood Donors

The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of IV iron isomaltoside 1000 compared with placebo on Hb in first-time female donors with p-ferritin below 30 µg/L

Read the detailed description

At present, clinical efficacy and safety data is available for iron isomaltoside 1000 administered to patients with IDA requiring iron therapy. However, there is a need for clinical efficacy and safety data within iron deficiency without anaemia which is e.g. observed in blood donors. Thus, this study is planned to compare the efficacy and safety of parenteral iron isomaltoside 1000 with placebo in female blood donors with a p-ferritin below 30 µg/L.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Hb concentration

    The primary endpoint is to measure and compare the change in Hb concentration from baseline to right before the third blood donation in the two study arms

    Measured: From baseline and until t= 6 months

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Change in Hb concentration

    Change in Hb concentrations from baseline to right before second donation

    Measured: From baseline and until t=3 months

  2. Ability to complete 3 blood donations

    Number of subjects who cannot complete three donations due to low Hb

    Measured: From baseline and until t=6 months

  3. Change in p-iron

    Measured: From baseline and until week 12

  4. Change in fatigue symptoms

    Measured: From baseline and until week 12

  5. Exercise tolerance

    Change in exercise tolerance from baseline to 3 weeks after baseline measured by a two-step test on bike

    Measured: From baseline to week 3

  6. Number of adverse drug reactions

    Measured: From screening and until t= 6 months

  7. Change in p-ferritin

    Measured: From baseline and until week 12

  8. Change in Transferrin Saturation (TSAT)

    Measured: From baseline until week 12

  9. Change in reticulocyte count

    Measured: From Baseline to week 12

  10. Change in haematology parameters

    Measured: From baseline and until t= 6 months

  11. Change in RLS symptoms

    Measured: From baseline and until t= 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Iron isomaltoside 1000 (Monofer®) in people with Iron-deficiency, run by Pharmacosmos A/S at 1 site in Denmark.

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 4 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 15 Mar 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 Denmark. 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. 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 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Change in Hb concentration (time frame: From baseline and until t= 6 months). 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 15 Mar 2018.
