Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Non Anemic Patients With Iron Deficiency (Low Ferritin Value)
Interventions
Drug: intravenous iron carboxymaltose
Registration Number
NCT01374776
Lead Sponsor
University of Zurich
Brief Summary

Effect of intravenous iron substitution (iron carboxymaltose (Ferinject®), total dose 15 mg/ kg (maximal dose: 1000mg) in 250 ml 0.9 % NaCl; intravenous infusion in 20 min)in non-anemic premenopausal women with iron deficiency on

Primary objective:

- Mitochondrial capacity (Phosphocreatine Recovery rate assessed by 31P-MR-spectroscopy of the lower leg muscle)

Secondary objectives:

* Maximal oxygen uptake during a graded cycling exercise test and time to exhaustion at submaximal power during a constant-load cycling exercise test

* Plantarflexor muscle fatiguability as assessed by isokinetic dynamometry

* Trial with medicinal product
