Iron Deficiency Anemia
Conditions
Brief 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.
Detailed description
This is an open-label, randomised controlled study to assess the impact of FCM in correcting iron deficiency anaemia compared with Venofer™ (IS). All subjects, after providing written informed consent and meeting the eligibility assessments, will receive a first dose of IV iron as either FCM or IS. A total of approximately 368 subjects (184 per group) will be enrolled. All subjects will have iron deficiency anaemia as measured by haemoglobin (Hb), serum ferritin and transferrin saturation (TSAT) at screening. Ferric carboxymaltose will be administered as either a diluted infusion or undiluted injection (at Investigator discretion) and IS will be administered as a slow intravenous injection at a rate of 1 ml undiluted solution per minute (with each single injection of 200 mg iron) or by drip infusion. Note, for subjects randomised to receive IS dosing visits are required three times a week to achieve total iron repletion dosing as calculated using the Ganzoni formula. For subjects randomised to FCM, the total iron requirements will be calculated at screening based on the screening Hb and subject weight. Dosing will be at baseline and, if required, at day 8 and day 15. All subjects will attend study visits at screening, baseline and thereafter at Weeks 2, 4 and 6. All subjects will attend an end of study visit (at Week 8 - or earlier if discontinued prematurely).
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.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* At least 18 years of age * Hb \<11 g/dL (females) or Hb \<12 g/dL (males) at the screening visit * Serum ferritin \<100 ng/mL for subjects with underlying inflammatory disease (e.g., inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), chronic kidney disease (CKD) or chronic heart failure (CHF), as determined by high sensitive C-reactive protein \[hsCRP\] levels above the normal range) otherwise ≤14 ng/mL in subjects with no apparent underlying inflammatory disease (as determined by hsCRP levels within normal range) at the screening visit * Transferrin Saturation (TSAT) \<16% (any subject) at the screening visit * Microcytic, hypochromic anaemia defined as: a) Mean corpuscular Hb concentration (MCHC) \<32%; b) Mean corpuscular volume (MCV) \< 80 fL; c)Mean corpuscular Hb (MCH) \<27 pg * Subjects with the ability to understand the requirements of the study and abide by the study restrictions, and who agree to return for the required assessments * Before any study-specific procedure is conducted, the appropriate written informed consent must be obtained

Participants With Any Treatment Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE)
Please note that in this section we are presenting just the overview of the adverse events experienced by the trial participant, in particular, the number of participants with at least one TEAE until end of the trial. Please refer to the detailed tables included on the Adverse Event Module for specifics
Time frame: From Baseline to the End of the study (week 8)
Population: Safety Set: all randomised participants who have received at least 1 dose of study medication. The participants in this group were analysed based on the treatment they received.
| Arm | Measure | Value (COUNT_OF_PARTICIPANTS) |
|---|---|---|
| Ferric Carboxymaltose (FCM) | Participants With Any Treatment Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) | 124 Participants |
| Iron Sucrose (IS) | Participants With Any Treatment Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) | 101 Participants |
Participants With Iron Deficiency Correction Over Time by Treatment
Iron deficiency correction: TSAT \>= 16% and serum ferritin \>=100ng/mL (for subjects with underlying inflammatory disease) or \>14ng/mL (for subjects with no apparent underlying inflammatory disease).
Time frame: From Baseline to Weeks 2, 4, 6 and 8
Population: Per Protocol Set: participants who were randomised, received at least 1 dose of study treatment, had at least 1 baseline and post-baseline value (Hb, ferritin, TSAT), had a study drug compliance between 80% and 120% and had no major protocol violations
