An Open-label, Randomised Controlled Multi-centre Study to Assess the Impact of Ferric Carboxymaltose in Correcting Iron Deficiency Anaemia Compared With Venofer® (Iron Sucrose) in Chinese Subjects
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Ferric carboxymaltose and Iron sucrose for Iron Deficiency Anemia. Completed, enrolled 371 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The primary objective is to demonstrate the efficacy of ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) given in a simple dosing regimen in correcting iron deficiency anaemia (IDA), by demonstrating non-inferiority to treatment with the currently approved intravenous (IV) iron therapy of iron sucrose (IS, Venofer™) in the Chinese population. The secondary objectives are to assess the safety of FCM compared to IS in the Chinese population and to evaluate the effect of FCM compared to IS on relevant laboratory parameters (haematology, chemistry, iron parameters) in the Chinese population.

Interventions
Dosage Form: Injection, Sterile FCM solution as a 5% w/v iron solution in water for injection Strength: 10 mL vials containing 500 mg iron per vial Dosage: 500mg/week or 1000mg/week (based on subject BW and Hb value at screening) Route of administration: IV injection (undiluted solution) or drip infusion (500 mg iron diluted in 100 mL 0.9% w/v physiological saline or 1,000 mg iron diluted in 250 mL 0.9% w/v physiological saline) Dosing schedules: baseline (Day 1) and, if required, at Day 8 and Day 15.
Dosage Form: Sterile solution for injection containing 2% w/v iron Strength: 5 mL ampoules containing 100 mg iron per ampoule Dosage: single doses of IS of 200mg iron based on the formula of Ganzoni: Cumulative iron deficit \[mg\] = BW \[kg\] x (target Hb- actual Hb) \[g/dL\] x 2.4 + 500 mg, up to 11 IS injections will be given Route of administration: IV injection or drip infusion Dosing schedules: three times a week, with an initial dose at baseline and will receive iron, as per approved label, until the subject has received the calculated iron dose.
