简要总结
This study will address whether the additional use of Ferric Derisomaltose on top of standard care will improve exercise capacity and quality of life in patients with acute heart failure and iron deficiency. One group of participants will receive treatment with Ferric Derisomaltose and the other group will receive normal saline 0.9% as placebo.
详细描述
Acute heart failure (AHF) is a very common medical problem. Despite improvements in treatment, many patients suffer limiting exercise capacity and quality of life. Previous comorbidities may account for it. Approximately 80% of patients hospitalized with AHF suffered from a combination of iron deficiency. A decline in exercise capacity may occur under this condition. Some research studies have suggested that giving CHF patients intravenous iron improves symptoms in the short term. It is unknown, however, whether correcting iron deficiency is beneficial to patients with AHF to improve excise capacity and whether it improves quality of life and accelerate recovery from acute duration. This study will help us answer these key questions.
This is an investigator-initiated, randomised, parallel group, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, evaluating the excise capacity improvement of using ferric derisomaltose versus placebo in hospitalized patients with acute heart failure with reduced ejection fraction before discharge.
Participants will be assessed daily using 6-minute walking test after IV iron injection until discharge from hospital, especially focus on the change from baseline to the 3rd day. Some questionnaires are also conducted to evaluate the self-reported status. Participants will be followed up at 2 weeks and 4 weeks.
The primary and secondary endpoints will be examined in subgroups predefined by baseline variables reflecting demography, Hb level, etiology of HF, left ventricular ejection fraction, natriuretic peptide, index of iron metabolism, eGFR and others.

研究组 & 干预措施
Ferric derisomaltose
Iron to be administered as ferric derisomaltose.
The treatment dose (mL) to be administered will be determined by the patient's body weight and hemoglobin (Hb) value.
Where Hb ≥10 g/dL, dosage according to body weight is as follows:
Body weight <50 kg: 20 mg/kg; Body weight 50 to <70 kg: 1000 mg; Body weight ≥70 kg: 20 mg/kg up to a maximum of 1500 mg.
Where Hb <10 g/dL, dosage according to body weight is as follows:
Body weight <50 kg: 20 mg/kg; Body weight 50 to <70 kg: 20 mg/kg; Body weight ≥70 kg: 20 mg/kg up to a maximum of 2000 mg.
Infused over a minimum of 15mins for doses up to and including 1000mg, and a minimum of 30 mins for doses >1000mg
