Registration Number
NCT03013439
Lead Sponsor
Pharmacosmos A/S
Brief Summary

The trial is an open-label, 4 cohorts, sequential, dose-escalating, single dose trial.

Detailed Description

IDA is highly prevalent in subjects with cancer and gastrointestinal diseases such as inflammatory bowel diseases, menstruating or pregnant women, and subjects who have undergone bariatric procedure. IDA can have a substantial medical and quality of life (QoL) burden on the subjects, and treatment of these subjects includes controlling the bleeding and replenishing lost iron.
