Active clinical trials for "Anemia"

130 pregnant women with Iron deficiency anemia, in the 2nd trimester (microcytic hypochromic anemia, hemoglobin range from 9-10.5g/dl, serum ferritin less than 12 ng/ml), from the outpatient clinics in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, in Ain Shams University Hospital, Cairo, Egypt, will be enrolled and distributed into one of 2 groups by a computer generated random number table. Each of the 2 groups will receive 2 medication for 2 months with specific instruction to increase iron absorption. One group named L will receive powders of bovine lactoferrin and tablets of placebo form, the 2nd named F will receive ferrous sulphate tablet and placebo in powder form. Hemoglobin concentration, packed-cell volume (PCV) , mean cell volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean cell hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), Serum ferritin will be done at the start and the end of the treatment period.

The clinical symptoms of non transfusion dependent non severe aplastic anemia (NSAA) are often lighter than that of severe aplastic anemia. Clinical observation is often used and the treatment should be given according to the follow-up results of peripheral blood routine and the survival condition of the patients. In recent years, a number of studies at home or abroad have tended to intervene earlier. The risk of observation and waiting for disease progression is higher. Early immunosuppression should be considered. For the treatment of non transfusion dependent non severe aplastic anemia, the commonly used treatment regimen is androgen combined with CSA. But the investigators find that Levamisole hydrochloride (LMS) as a commonly used immunomodulatory drugs may be helpful to improving immune disorder symptoms in NSAA patients. Therefore,the investigators are conducting a prospective, randomized controlled study to compare the rate, side effects and long-term survival in non transfusion dependent patients with NSAA between the androgen+CSA group and the androgen+CSA+LMS group.

Iron deficiency anemia is a common complication in patients who underwent gastrectomy and leads to a deterioration in patient's quality of life. Therefore iron supplementation is one of the important treatments in postgastrectomy patients. Taking an oral iron is an option for iron supplementation, but the postgastrectomy patients has poor absorption of iron due to their anatomic change. Accordingly, intravenous iron supplementation has been emerged as another treatment option, but there are only a few studies to evaluate the efficacy of intravenous iron supplementation compared with oral iron in patients underwent gastrectomy. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the iron supplementation method as intravenous injection of iron isomaltoside compared with oral iron in the treatment of postgastrectomy anemia. Gastric cancer patients who underwent curative gastrectomy more than 1 year ago and hemoglobin level lower than 11 g/dL will be included in this trial. After the registration, the patients will be randomly assigned to intravenous iron (n = 179) or oral iron groups (n = 179). Calculated dose of iron isomaltoside using Ganzoni formula will be injected intravenously in intravenous iron group and 160 mg/day of ferrous sulfate for 12 weeks will be taken in oral iron group. Hemoglobin and iron profiles at baseline and weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12 and quality of life score at baseline and weeks 12 period will be evaluated.

The investigator's study is going to compare effectiveness of single dose intravenous iron in combination with oral iron versus oral iron monotherapy in correcting haemoglobin deficit, replenishing iron stores and improving clinical symptoms in women with post-partum anaemia after postpartum hemorrhage without increasing the rate of adverse outcomes.

The main purpose is to determine whether FPC, administered via infusion, is safe and effective for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in patients receiving Home Infusion therapies (HI).

A parallel group, quadruple blind, placebo-controlled, randomized control trial with 2x2 factorial design to determine the effect of simultaneous IV ferric carboxymaltose and IM hydroxycobalamin supplementation in anemic Indian HD patients

The study is being conducted to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of multi-dose DDO-3055 tablets in patients with anemia of non-dialysis chronic kidney diseases.

This 4-week prospective double blind anaemia management study evaluates the effect of high-dose postoperative intravenous iron vs placebo for patients after colorectal cancer surgery. Patients with preoperative levels of haemoglobin 90-120 g/l will be randomly assigned to receive either 1 g of intravenous iron or equal amount of saline postoperatively. Comparison will be based on the levels of haemoglobin, ferritin and other haematological parameters over time and profile of clinical recovery. The primary end point is that iron isomaltoside given postoperatively is superior to placebo in terms of increase and stability of levels of haemoglobin and other haematological parameters.

This study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Umbilical Cord Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells transplantation in aplastic anemia.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from human umbilical cord/placenta at a dose of 1.0E+6 MSC/kg in subject for the therapy of severe aplastic anemia (SAA).
