About this study

Official title: Intravaneous Iron(1000 mg Low Molecular Weight Iron Dextran Over 60 Minutes) for Moderate to Severe Iron Deficient Anemia of Pregnancy in Women Intolerant of or Responsive to Oral Iron.

To determine the percentage of women who achieve anemia correction after a single dose of 1000mg of low molecular weight iron dextran(infed).

Read the detailed description

To determine the percentage of women who achieve anemia correction after a single dose of 1000mg of low molecular weight iron dextran(infed).

To determine whether IV iron supplementation has a higher satisfaction with treatment as compared to oral supplementation in a population previously intolerant of or unresponsive to oral iron.

To evaluate the safety of IV low molecular weight iron dextran in pregnant women.

To assess maternal and fetal outcomes-preterm delivery, low birth weight deliveries, ER visits and hospitalizations related to preterm labor, preterm contractions, ante-partum and post-partum transfusions, maternal hemoglobin at post-partum visit after IV iron supplementation groups.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Women Who Achieve Anemia Correction After a Single Dose of 1000mg of Low Molecular Weight Iron Dextran(INfeD).

    Measured: 4 weeks after infusion or post-partum

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Serum Ferritin

    Measured: 4 weeks post infusion or post-partum

  2. Percent Transferrin Saturation

    Measured: 4 weeks post infusion or post-partum

  3. Safety as Measured by Number of Adverse Events

    To evaluate the safety of IV low molecular weight iron dextran in pregnant women. Also to asses maternal and fetal outcomes-preterm delivery, low-birth weight deliveries, ER visits and hospitalizations related to preterm labor, preterm contractions, ante-partum and post partum transfusions, maternal hemoglobin at post-partum visit after IV iron supplementation groups. A questionaire with a list of symptoms to include nausea, dizziness, hypotension, edema, headache, abdominal pain, chest pain, cough, itching, fever, back pain, muscle cramps and rash are asked immediately after administration and phone calls at 24, 48 hours and 7 days.

    Measured: 4 weeks after infusion and 4 weeks post-partum

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Intravaneous iron(low molecular weight iron dextran) in people with Pregnancy, run by Auerbach Hematology Oncology Associates P C 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 28 Jun 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 Jun 2018). 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?

Percentage of Women Who Achieve Anemia Correction After a Single Dose of 1000mg of Low Molecular Weight Iron Dextran(INfeD). (time frame: 4 weeks after infusion or post-partum). 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 NCT02038023, 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Jun 2018.
