Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: changes in ferritin level, compared to baseline, in patients with transfusion-induced iron overload treated with Exjade (Time Frame: Baseline assessment is followed by monthly assessments for up to 1 year) ;Secondary Objective: •changes in clinical manifestations of iron overload by means of echocardiogram (ECHO), electrocardiogram (ECG), routine laboratory assessments and physical examination [ Time Frame: Baseline assessment is followed by monthly assessments for up to 1 year. ] •changes in iron overload evidence on cardiac and liver magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) T2*, compared to baseline, in patients with transfusion-induced iron overload treated with Exjade [ Time Frame: at baseline and 1 at year (at the end of study). ] •Number of participants with adverse events. Safety is evaluated through the continuous monitoring and recording of adverse events, as well as though routine laboratory assessments and physical examination. [ Time Frame: From the start of study up to 1 year ] ;Primary end point(s): changes in ferritin level, compared to baseline, in patients with transfusion-induced iron overload treated with Exjade ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Baseline assessment is followed by monthly assessments for up to 1 year

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): 1.changes in clinical manifestations of iron overload by means of echocardiogram (ECHO), electrocardiogram (ECG), routine laboratory assessments and physical examination 2.changes in iron overload evidence on cardiac and liver magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) T2*, compared to baseline, in patients with transfusion-induced iron overload treated with Exjade 3.Number of participants with adverse events. Safety is evaluated through the continuous monitoring and recording of adverse events, as well as though routine laboratory assessments and physical examination.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. Baseline assessment is followed by monthly assessments for up to 1 year. 2. at baseline and 1 at year (at the end of study). 3. From the start of study up to 1 year
