Brief summary
Evaluation of safety and efficacy of iron isomaltoside/ferric derisomaltose compared with iron sucrose, in subjects with both non-dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (NDD-CKD) and iron deficiency anaemia (IDA).
Detailed description
Iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) is a common problem associated with many chronic diseases such as chronic kidney disease (CKD). IDA can have a substantial medical and quality of life (QoL) burden on the subjects. Therapy of these subjects includes treating the underlying cause of IDA and restoring haemoglobin (Hb) concentration and iron stores. This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of iron isomaltoside/ferric derisomaltose compared with iron sucrose in subjects with both non-dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (NDD-CKD) and iron deficiency anaemia (IDA). The study subjects received either a single intravenous (IV) dose of iron isomaltoside/ferric derisomaltose (1000 mg at baseline) or iron sucrose (200 mg IV injections at baseline and repeated according to standard practice or physician choice up to a maximum of five times within the first two weeks starting at baseline; a cumulative dose of 1000 mg was recommended). The study subjects were monitored for up to 8 weeks from baseline.
Interventions
Iron isomaltoside/ferric derisomaltose (Monofer®/Monoferric®; 100 mg/mL) was the test product in this trial. The dose of iron isomaltoside/ferric derisomaltose for the individual subject was set to 1000 mg. The dose was diluted in 100 mL 0.9 % sodium chloride (100 mL bags) and administered as a single IV infusion over approximately 20 minutes.
Iron sucrose (Venofer®; 20 mg elemental iron/mL) was the comparator in this trial. Iron sucrose was administered as 200 mg undiluted IV injections over approximately 2-5 minutes and repeated according to standard practice or physician choice up to a maximum of five times within the first two weeks starting at baseline. A cumulative dose of 1000 mg was recommended.

Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in Hemoglobin (Hb) From Baseline to Week 8 | Baseline to week 8 | Efficacy Evaluate the effect of iron isomaltoside/ferric derisomaltose vs iron sucrose in subjects with non-dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (NDD-CKD) and iron deficiency anaemia (IDA). Response was defined as change from baseline in hemoglobin (Hb) to week 8, i.e. ability to increase Hb in subjects with NDD-CKD and IDA, when oral iron preparations were ineffective or could not be used, or in whom the Hb measurement at screening in Investigators' opinion were sufficiently low to require rapid repletion of iron stores. |
| Incidence of Protocol-defined Serious or Severe Hypersensitivity Reactions | Baseline to week 8 | Safety For this endpoint, the number of participants with serious or severe hypersensitivity reactions were evaluated. The hypersensitivity reactions that were included in the analysis were those that started on or after the first dose of randomised treatment (i.e. treatment emergent). The terms used to define hypersensitivity were those specified by the Standardised MedDRA Queries (SMQ) for hypersensitivity, plus four additional terms: loss of consciousness, seizure, syncope, unresponsiveness. The potential hypersensitivity AEs were adjudicated in a blinded fashion by an independent Clinical Endpoint Adjudication Committee (CEAC). Results show only those participants that had adjudicated and confirmed serious or severe hypersensitivity reactions. |

Health Care Resource Use Questionnaire
Pharmacoeconomics Resources used by the health care staff (per administration), measured by the health care resource use questionnaire. The questionnaire assessed the time used by the health care staff during administration of the investigational product and the administration time (including the observational time). The health care participants included in the evaluation were: investigator, pharmacist, physician, study coordinator, study nurse. The data for this endpoint show the responses at baseline for both treatment groups. The frequency of drug administration between the 2 treatment groups is different (i.e. up to a factor 5 more frequent in the iron sucrose treatment group).
