简要总结
Iron deficiency is a prevalent nutritional deficiency and a common cause of anemia. Although iron deficiency is traditionally linked to anemia, iron deficiency is prevalent even in the absence of anaemia and in itself limits function and survival. Iron deficiency is a common feature of various chronic diseases, and up to 50% of patients with heart failure have iron deficiency. Iron deficiency is more prevalent the more advanced the disease is and occurs more frequently in women. Iron deficiency comprises absolute iron deficiency (usually defined as ferritin < 100 ng/ml) as well as functional iron deficiency, in which iron supply is inadequate to meet the demand for the production of red blood cells and other cellular functions despite normal or abundant body iron stores. Iron deficiency is associated with poor exercise capacity, lethargy and reduced quality of life. Results from our studies have shown that iron deficiency is prevalent in patients with aortic stenosis. Some of the symptoms associated with aortic stenosis, such as fatigue, reduced exercise capacity, dyspnoea and cognitive dysfunction, have traditionally been thought to be caused by the haemodynamic derangements precipitated by the valvular stenosis. However, similar symptoms can be brought about by iron deficiency, and the investigators hypothesize that intravenous iron supplement will improve exercise capacity, muscle strength, cognition, health-related quality of life and myocardial function in patients with severe aortic stenosis and iron deficiency. This is a phase 2, double blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial. Participants will be randomised in a 1:1 fashion to receive a single intravenous dose of iron isomaltoside (50 patients) or matching placebo (50 patients). The study is designed to show superiority with regard to the primary endpoint in patients assigned to active treatment versus patients allocated to the placebo arm. The main goal is to evaluate the effect of a single dose of intravenous iron isomaltoside on exercise capacity after transcatheter aortic valve implantation in patients with severe aortic stenosis and iron deficiency. For this study, the investigators have defined as serum ferritin < 100 µg/l or ferritin between 100 and 300 µg/l in combination with a transferrin saturation < 20 %.
详细描述
Written informed consent must have been provided voluntarily by each subject before any study specific procedure is initiated.
A physical examination (including examination of heart, lungs, abdomen, neck and assessment of peripheral circulation and oedema) must be performed; vital signs (blood pressure, and heart rate); and height and weight must be recorded. A medical history must be obtained, and age; gender; New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional status; risk factors (hypertension, smoking, and diabetes); symptom duration, and concomitant disease must be recorded. All concomitant medication (incl. vitamins, herbal preparation and other "over-the-counter" drugs) used by the participant within 28 days of treatment start must be recorded in the CRF by generic name and dose. Blood samples will be obtained to determine haemoglobin; white blood cell count, platelet count; serum potassium; serum sodium; glucose, glycosylated haemoglobin; creatinine; ALT; bilirubin; albumin; INR; CRP; N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide; total cholesterol; ferritin; transferrin, serum iron and total iron binding capacity. Blood for efficacy analyses must be drawn and appropriately labelled and stored for later analysis. A 6 min walk test will be performed in accordance with current guidelines at baseline. The results of this test will be used for adjustment of the test-result six months after study drug infusion. The latter result, with adjustment for the baseline result, constitutes the primary endpoint of the IIISAS trial. Right and left hand grip strengths will be measured by a hand-held dynamometer. Body composition (weight, total water, total fat, percent fat, the ratio of extracellular water to intracellular water [measuring oedema], and visceral fat) will be measured at baseline and after 6 months with the InBody 770 body composition analyser. Self-reported, health-related quality of life will be gauged with the SF-36, EQ 5D 3L, EQ-VAS, HAD and the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaires. Cognitive function will be assessed with the Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery (CANTAB).
A physical examination, medical history, all concomitant medication, blood samples, 6 min walk test, right and left hand grip strengths, body composition, and self-reported, health-related quality of life as well as cognitive function will be conducted again on average approximately 3 months after study drug administration, and it is designed to assess initial efficacy and safety. This will be conducted again 3 months after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
Patients will be followed for the first year after the TAVI procedure for safety assessment, including MACE, and all-cause mortality. At 12 months after that TAVI procedure, approximately 15 months after study drug infusion, a visit to Oslo University hospital, the local hospital or a telephone interview will be performed to assess NYHA functional class, adverse events and clinical events.
Patients may be discontinued from study treatment and assessments at any time. Specific reasons for discontinuing patient follow-up are:
