Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Willing to provide written informed consent indicating that they understand the study requirements and are willing to participate in the study. 2. Male and female patients aged between 18 and 65 years (including both). 3. Adult patients with iron deficiency anaemia, for whom oral supplementation alone was not adequate or is not appropriate in the opinion of the Investigator. 4. Patient’s weight within clinically acceptable normal range with minimum of 50 kg body weight at screening visit. 5. Haemoglobin value ranging between greater than 7 and less than 12 g per dL at screening 6. Ferritin = 100 ng/mL or Ferritin less than or equal to 300 ng per mL when TSAT is =30% at screening 7. For Female Patients: Female patients of childbearing potential must have negative Serum ß-hCG (pregnancy test) at screening and Urine Pregnancy test on Day 0 as well as be willing to use a reliable means of contrace ption (other than hormonal contraceptives) e.g., barrier method (diaphragm, condom, etc.) or abstinence for the duration of the study or Surgically sterile (bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, or hysterectomy has been performed on the patient) or Postmenopausal for at least one year from the last menstrual date.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Ongoing pregnancy or lactation for females 2. Known hypersensitivity to IMP, excipients, or other iron product 3. History of: Anaemia not caused by iron deficiency (e.g., aplastic, megaloblastic or haemolytic anaemia, sideroblastic anaemia) or related to acute or ongoing, haemoglobinopathies, rheumatic and other chronic diseases like CKD, autoimmune diseases, malignancies, bone marrow diseases, enzyme defects and drug induced anaemia. Any ongoing acute or chronic infection at screening. Any chronic disorder or severe disease which, in the opinion of the investigator, might jeopardize patient’s safety or compliance with the protocol. Haemochromatosis or other iron storage disorders. Alcoholism or drug abuse, or severe emotional, behavioural or psychiatric problems within 6 months prior to screening, who may not be able to adequately comply with the requirements of the study.

Presence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) at screening or within 3 months prior to first dose of investigational intervention. Positive hepatitis C antibody test result at screening or within 3 months prior to starting investigational intervention. NOTE: Participants with positive hepatitis C antibody due to prior resolved disease can be enrolled only if a confirmatory negative hepatitis C RNA test is obtained. Bleeding disorders; acute bleeding or recently documented haemorrhage or recent blood loss leading to hemodynamic instability within 3 months prior to screening. 5. Receipt of: Medications that may affect PK results within 14 days before screening (Please refer Section 5.1.11). Oral iron supplementation within 15 days prior to screening.

Erythropoietin / Erythroid Stimulating Agent treatment within 6 months prior to screening 6. Donation of blood (1 unit or 350 mL) or receipt of an investigational medicinal product or participation in a drug research study within 90 days prior to receiving the first dose of IMP. 7. Inadequate venous access for PK sampling as judged by investigator. 8. Requirement of any planned procedure or hospitalization for pre-existing conditions during the study period.
