Active clinical trials for "Anemia"

This phase II trial studies the side effects of and how well sotatercept works in treating patients with myeloproliferative neoplasm-associated myelofibrosis or anemia. Sotatercept may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

The study addresses treatment of iron deficiency, the most common nutritional deficiency that infants and young children encounter. With the knowledge that iron deficiency may irreversibly affect a baby's long-term neurodevelopment and behavior, the investigators are offering free screening blood draws at Children's Hospital Colorado to older babies and toddlers (9-24 months old). If their blood results indicate a serum ferritin of ≤ 15 micrograms/dL without the presence of an elevated C-reactive protein (CRP), they will be invited to continue in the intervention portion of the study, where they will receive iron supplements as well as vitamin E (or placebo) for an eight week treatment period. The rationale for the study is to test whether addition of Vitamin E, an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent, improves the treatment response to supplemental iron.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous (IV) ferumoxytol compared to IV iron sucrose for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia (IDA).

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of ferumoxytol for the episodic treatment of iron deficiency anemia (IDA).

The study is designed to determine the effects of an investigational drug Monofer in subjects with non-dialysis dependent chronic kidney disease (NDD-CKD) subjects and with iron deficiency anaemia (IDA).

This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy of Ferinject® in improving acute isovolemic anemia after gastrectomy for gastric cancer in terms of Quality of life(QOL )and objective measures (Hb and iron parameters). Furthermore, the tolerability and safety of Ferinject® treatment will be evaluated.

The aim of the present study was to compare the effectiveness of the different oral iron preparations in children with IDA.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of roxadustat compared with active control (epoetin alfa) for the maintenance treatment of anemia in participants with ESRD on dialysis.

Anemia is one of the major health problems of the developing countries of the world [1]. According to the WHO reference criteria, an adult is labeled as anemic, if the blood hemoglobin concentration falls below 13.0 g/dL in men or less than 12.0 g/dL in the non-pregnant women [2]. Hemoglobin concentrations below the lower limit of normal are a common laboratory finding in apparently healthy people in general population all over the world [3-5]. Many of these mildly anemic individuals are not investigated sufficiently to establish the probable cause of their anemia and thus may end up with morbidity and health problems, especially the young women in developing countries [4]. Only few studies on the use of vitamin E in the correction of anemia have been published and hardly any on correction of mild anemia in healthy adults. The objective of this intervention study was to investigate the association of vitamin E supplementation with post-supplemental blood hemoglobin levels in mildly anemic healthy Pakistani adults.

This study was conducted to explore a new therapy for anemia in participants with end stage renal disease (ESRD) on dialysis. Anemia is a reduced number of red blood cells or hemoglobin. Hemoglobin (which contains iron) is important for the transport of oxygen in your blood. The purpose of this study was to evaluate if roxadustat is effective and safe in the maintenance treatment of anemia in ESRD participants on stable dialysis. Roxadustat was compared to epoetin alfa and darbepoetin alfa, commercially available medicines for treatment of anemia.
