NCT06929806

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the IV Iron treatment ferric derisomaltose helps in the treatment of chronic heart failure in people with iron deficiency. The main question it aims to answer is:

  • How many participants are admitted to the hospital or die from a disease in the heart or blood vessels Researchers will compare treatment with ferric derisomaltose to no treatment with ferric derisomaltose. This will be done to see how well ferric derisomaltose works. Participants will:
  • Be randomized 50/50 to either treatment with Ferric derisomaltose or to no treatment with ferric derisomaltose
  • All participants receives standard of care
  • Visit site 4-5 times and have 7 video/phone-calls

  • Number of all-cause hospitalizations

    From enrollment to the end of follow-up at 52 weeks

  • Time to all-cause death

    From enrollment to weeks 26 and 52

  • Type and incidence of SAEs

    From enrollment to the end of follow-up at 52 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Ferric Derisomaltose

EXPERIMENTAL

50 % of the subjects will be treated with Ferric Derisomaltose 100 mg/mL The ferric derisomaltose dose administered is dependent on the subject's weight and hemoglobin (Hb) level. Subjects treated with ferric derisomaltose will be eligible for re-dosing if transferrin saturation (TSAT) remains below \<25 %

Drug: Ferric Derisomaltose

Control

NO INTERVENTION

50 % of the subjects will receive no IV iron

Interventions

100 mg/mL
