A Randomized, Controlled Study to Investigate the Safety and Explore the Mechanism of Hypophosphatemia With Intravenous Ferric Carboxymaltose (FCM) Versus Iron Dextran in Women With Iron Deficiency Secondary to Heavy Uterine Bleeding
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Ferric Carboxymaltose (FCM) and Iron Dextran Injection for Iron Deficiency Anemia. Completed, enrolled 69 participants.
Detailed Summary
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety of an investigational intravenous iron (ferric carboxymaltose \[FCM\]) or an equal dose of iron dextran and explore the mechanism of hypophosphatemia following administration of FCM or that of an equal dose of iron dextran when treating women with iron deficiency anemia due to heavy uterine bleeding (HUB).

Interventions
15 mg/kg up to a maximum of 1000 mg intravenous diluted in 250 cc normal saline solution administered over 15 minutes on Day 0
Test dose of 25 mg administered over 5 minutes, if no reaction occurs then the remainder of the dose (15 mg/kg or 1000 mg including the test dose) will be administered as per investigator. The infusion must be given only when resuscitative techniques for the treatment of anaphylactic reactions are readily available.
