Phase 4

Completed

• Conditions: Hemodialysis
• Interventions: Drug: Venofer® 200 mg; Drug: Venofer® 100 mg

• Registration Number: NCT06690450

Brief Summary

The Objective of this study is to assess the Safety and Tolerability of 200 mg and 100 mg of Venofer Administered to Hemodialysis(HD) Patients.

Detailed Description

This is a randomized open label multi-center study of two parallel patient groups undergoing hemodialysis. Group A will receive 200 mg of iron sucrose, while Group B will receive 100 mg of iron sucrose during the study. The duration of the study for each patient will be approximately 3 weeks including a screening phase, a treatment visit and a follow-up visit.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The number of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) as assessed by CTCAE v4.0	3 to 6 days	Any untoward medical events were elicited by nonspecific questions such as "Have you noticed any problems".

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The number of participants prematurely discontinued the study due to an adverse event	3 to 6 days	The investigator determined whether any adverse event warranted removal of a subject from the study
