简要总结
This study is a nonrandomized, single arm, open-label study stratified by iron-deficiency status.
详细描述
The study aims to investigate the effect of FCM (without ESAs) on anemic cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy (with or without radiotherapy); stratified by status of iron deficiency (i.e. non-iron deficient vs. iron deficient patients ). The study will also try to find out whether serum level of Hepcidin and C reactive protein can correlate with response
Patients will receive one or two doses of FCM, based on the body weight and Hb level. Patients will be followed-up for a total of twelve weeks. The study is divided into a screening, treatment and follow-up phases and is expected to be completed in 12 months.

- •Patient has received oral iron supplements within 1 month of enrollment to the study, except for multivitamin supplements containing less than 30 mg iron.
研究组 & 干预措施
Ferric carboxymaltose (ferrinject)
Patients will receive one or two doses of Ferric carboxymaltose (ferrinject), based on the body weight and Hb level.
- Ferric carboxymaltose will be administered as a single infusion if the needed dose is 1000 mg as a short IV infusion
- If the needed Ferric carboxymaltose dose is > 1000 mg, an initial dose of 1000 mg will be given as a short IV infusion and the remaining dose will be given the week after in a similar fashion
干预措施: Ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
The Median Hb Change From Baseline to Week 12
时间窗: up to 12 weeks
The median Hb change from baseline to week 12 per patient in the three groups, Based on serum ferritin (sFr) and transferrin saturation(TSAT), patients were divided into the 3 groups: group I (absolute iron deficiency, n = 26) with sFr \< 30 ng/mL and TSAT \< 20%; group II (functional iron deficiency, n = 24) with sFr 30-800 ng/mL and TSAT \< 20%; and patients with TSAT ⩾ 20% were placed in group III as "others" (n = 34).
Percentage of Patients With Hb Increment of at Least 1.0 gm/dL.
时间窗: up to 12 weeks
Percentage of patients with Hb increment of at least 1.0 gm/dL during their participation (from baseline to week 12 per patient) in the three groups, Based on serum ferritin (sFr) and transferrin saturation(TSAT), patients were divided into the 3 groups: group I (absolute iron deficiency, n = 26) with sFr \< 30 ng/mL and TSAT \< 20%; group II (functional iron deficiency, n = 24) with sFr 30-800 ng/mL and TSAT \< 20%; and patients with TSAT ⩾ 20% were placed in group III as "others" (n = 34).
Percentage of Patients Achieving Correction of Anemia (Hb >11.0 gm/dL)
时间窗: up to 12 weeks
Percentage of patients achieving correction of anemia (Hb \>11.0 gm/dL) during their participation (from baseline to week 12 per patient) in the three groups. A total of 84 adult cancer patients on active chemotherapy with hemoglobin (Hb) level ⩽11.0 g/dL were recruited. Based on serum ferritin (sFr) and transferrin saturation(TSAT), patients were divided into 3 groups: group I (absolute iron deficiency, n = 26) with sFr \< 30 ng/mL and TSAT \< 20%; group II (functional iron deficiency, n = 24) with sFr 30-800 ng/mL and TSAT \< 20%; and patients with TSAT ⩾ 20% were placed in group III as "others" (n = 34).
次要结局
- Response Rate in Relation to Baseline Iron Deficiency Status(up to 12 weeks)
- Percentage of Patients Who Will Require Blood Transfusion or ESA Treatment(up to 12 weeks)
