NCT01610297

Brief Summary

This was a prospective, single-arm, multicenter, national, phase II clinical study. The purpose of this Phase II study was to examine the safety and efficacy of deferasirox to decrease iron overload (IOL) in the posttransplant period in patients with beta-thalassemia major.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants With Adverse Events, Serious Adverse Events and Deaths as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

    To determine the safety; incidence, type and severity of adverse events including renal, hepatic, biochemistry and hematologic parameters of deferasirox in the treatment of iron overload after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in patients with beta-thalassemia major in 12 months period

    12 months

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Change in Serum Ferritin Level.

    Baseline, 12 Months

  • Change in the Further Parameters of Iron Overload (Liver Iron Concentration by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI Examination)

    Baseline, 12 month

  • The Percentage of Patients Reaching Serum Ferritin Levels Lower Than 500 μg/L

    Week 28 and Week 52

  • Change in the Further Parameters of Iron Overload (Cardiac Iron Concentration by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI Examination)

    Baseline, 12 month

Study Arms (1)

Eligibility Criteria

Age2 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients who had hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for beta-thalassemia major
  • hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) was performed minimum 6 months and maximum 2 years ago
  • The washout period after the immunosuppressive therapy should be at least 3 months.
  • Signifacant IOL should be present including:
  • A. Serum ferritin \>1000 μg/L or B. cardiac MRI \<20 ms or C. liver iron concentration ≥ 5 mg/g dry weight measured by R2\* MRI

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients who had any contraindication for treatment with deferasirox according to the prescribing information
  • Patients who depended on transfusion
  • Patients with clinical symptoms of cardiac dysfunction (shortness of breath at rest or exertion, orthopnea, exercise intolerance, lower extremity edema, arrhythmias)
  • Patients who were experiencing severe complication of HSCT e.g. acute Graft-versus host disease (GVHD)
  • Significant proteinuria / Increase in serum creatinine
