Intravenous Iron Injection in Cancer Patients With Anemia
- Registration Number
- NCT04187716
- Lead Sponsor
- Samsung Medical Center
- Brief Summary
* Multifactorial pathogenesis is involved in anemia of cancer patients and defining the causes of anemia is not always simple.
* Currently, treatment options available for anemia in cancer patients include red blood cell (RBC) transfusion, erythropoietin stimulating agent (ESA), and iron supplementation, accompanying considerable pros and cons for each treatment.
* Previous studies have demonstrated benefit when treating with IV iron in combination with ESA and, more recently, evidence is emerging to suggest a role for IV iron alone.
* In this study, investigator will assess the efficacy of intravenous iron for the treatment of anemia in cancer patients.
* Improvement of anemia and the improvement of quality of life compared to conservative treatment of intravenous iron
- Detailed Description
This study is a comparative clinical trial of prospective, multicenter, randomized trials to evaluate the efficacy of intravenous iron (Ferinject®) in cancer patients with anemia.
Changes in hemoglobin in the treated and conservative treatment groups with a single intravenous Ferrinject® in patients with anemia by chemotherapy are identified.
1. Clinical Drug Ferinject Injection For patients undergoing chemotherapy, ferinject 1000mg will be injected within 24 hours or 24 hours after day 1 of the next chemotherapy cycle.
Patients using targeted therapies can be dosed at any time after recognizing Hb 8.0-10.5g / dL and injecting 1000 mg of ferinject.
* The administration of ferinject is a single dose, no re-administration. If chemotherapy is not performed, it can be administered at any time if the selection and exclusion criteria are met.
* The administration period for ferinject should be administered within 24 hours or 24 hours after the day 1 of the chemotherapy cycle based on the results of phase 2 studies
2. remedies Within the period of sample collection of visits 2 to 4 after study enrollment, if the physician determines that treatment for clinically meaningful anemia is necessary, treatment for anemia other than ferinjects will be followed. Treatment for anemia will include remedies such as iron (oral or intravenous), hematopoietic accelerators, and blood transfusions, and will be determined by researchers at each institution to provide optimal treatment for patients. At the time this treatment is administered, the subject will be dropped from the clinical trial.

- Target Recruitment
- 341
The subject should be diagnosed with solid cancer or lymphoma. Hemoglobin level of test subject should be in the range of 8.0-10.5g / dL, or he / she has experienced hemoglobin reduction of 2g / dL or more during chemotherapy.
The patients have a history of iron (oral or intravenous), hematopoietic stimulating agents (ESA), and dialysis within 4 weeks of study enrollment.
There is evidence that the patient's disease is a bone marrow invasion. There is a hypersensitivity reaction to ferinject or the components of ferinject.
