Inclusion Criteria

? Patient who has signed a written consent
? Age = 19
? Histologically diagnosed advanced/metastatic solid cancer
? Patients who have received myelosuppressive chemotherapy for palliative purposes within 1 month of participating in the study and plan to proceed with chemotherapy while participating in this study
? Anemia with functional iron deficiency
1) Hemoglobin <10g/dL
2) functional iron deficiency: transferrin saturation <50% AND serum ferritin 30-800ng/mL
? ECOG performance status 0-2
? life expectancy = 24weeks

Exclusion Criteria

? Absolute iron deficiency (serum ferritin <30 ng/mL AND transferrin saturation <20%) or no iron deficiency (serum ferritin =800 ng/mL OR transferrin saturation =50%)
? If there is another cause of anemia other than chemotherapy-induced anemia (eg, vitamin B12 or folic acid deficiency, hemolytic anemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, etc.)
? Ongoing bleeding at the time of study registration
? Patients who require rapid blood transfusion at the time of study registration (eg, rapidly progressing anemia)
? Presence of bone marrow tumor invasion
? Receiving erythropoiesis stimulating agents within 3 weeks of study registration or have a history of oral or intravenous iron administration or blood transfusion within 2 weeks of study registration
? History of venous thromboembolism within 6 months or taking anticoagulants at the time of study registration
? Past or family history of hemochromatosis
? History of hypersensitivity to iron treatment or erythropoiesis stimulating agents
? Uncontrolled acute or chronic infection
? Renal dysfunction (serum creatinine =2.0 mg/dL, or glomerular filtration rate <30 mL/min/1.73 m2) or liver dysfuction (AST or ALT 3 times or more the upper limit of normal)
? Pregnant or lactating women
