Treatment of (IDA) by (FPC) Delivered Via Infusion Pump in Patients Receiving Home Infusion Therapy

NCT ID: NCT05110768

Last Updated: 2021-11-08

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: UNKNOWN
• Clinical Phase: PHASE2
• Total Enrollment: 75 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2021-11-30
• Study Completion Date: 2022-05-30

Brief Summary

The main purpose is to determine whether FPC, administered via infusion, is safe and effective for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in patients receiving Home Infusion therapies (HI).

Detailed Description

This is a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, multi-center, clinical trial of the safety and efficacy of FPC infusion for patients diagnosed with IDA receiving therapy home infusion therapy. The study will be open label placebo-controlled using an objective endpoint (Hgb). A total of 75 home infusion patients will be enrolled.

Subjects will be randomized to receive FPC starting at Day 1; Patients in the FPC arm will receive FPC 20 mg Fe IV by infusion over 12 hours every other day (qOD), for a total duration of up to 12 weeks plus a one-week follow-up after the last study drug treatment. For patients whose duration of therapy is >10 hours, patients will receive a 12-hour infusion of FPC. Patients in the placebo arms will receive IV placebo on the same schedule for 12 weeks.

Study Groups

FPC 20 mg Fe IV by infusion over 12 hours every other day

Patients in the FPC arm will receive FPC 20 mg Fe IV by infusion over 12 hours every other day (qOD), for a total duration of up to 12 weeks plus a one-week follow-up after the last study drug treatment.For patients whose duration of therapy is \>10 hours, patients will receive a 12-hour infusion of FPC.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

Triferic AVNU

Intervention Type: DRUG

Triferic AVNU is an iron salt that is approved for the maintenance of Hgb in chronic kidney disease patients on hemodialysis. It is experimental in this study because it has not yet been approved for patients receiving home infusion therapy

Placebo

Patients in the placebo arms will receive IV placebo on the same schedule for 12 weeks. All patients are eligible to receive Rescue conventional IV iron if criteria are met and the patient's principal physician agrees.

Group Type: PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Placebo

Intervention Type: OTHER

normal TPN solution without FPC on alternate days with TPN supplemented with multivitamins.

• Treatment with another investigational drug within 30 days of Randomization
• Current smoker or tobacco use within ≥3 months
• Known cause of anemia other than iron deficiency (e.g., sickle cell disease, thalassemia, pure red cell aplasia, hemolytic anemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, Vitamin B12 deficiency …etc.)
