A Study to Evaluate BBI-001 in Hereditary Haemochromatosis (HH) Patients and Iron Deficient Volunteers...

Hereditary Hemochromatosis

This is a first in human, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, two-arm crossover study evaluating the safety, tolerability and PD of ascending dose levels of BBI-001 after: a single administration in iron deficient male and female participants, and male and female HH patients (Part A), two administrations per day in HH patients (Part B). BBI-001 administrations will be accompanied with consumption of a meal enriched with stable iron isotope Fe57, while corresponding placebo dose administrations will be with a meal enriched with stable iron isotope Fe58.

A Study of LJPC-401 for the Treatment of Iron Overload in Adult Patients With Hereditary Hemochromatosis...

Hereditary Hemochromatosis

This study is a Phase 2 multicenter, randomized, placebo controlled, single-blind study. The primary objective of the study is to compare the effect of weekly dosing of LJPC-401 (synthetic human hepcidin) versus placebo on transferrin saturation (TSAT) in an adult hereditary hemochromatosis patient population.

Extension Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Deferasirox Treatment in Beta-thalassemia Patients...

Beta-thalassemia MajorHemosiderosis2 more

To allow patients treated with deferasirox in the core study to continue iron chelation therapy for 2 years or until the drug became locally commercially available. To evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of deferasirox by measuring treatment success, change in liver iron content (LIC) and change in serum ferritin levels. Safety was mainly assessed by incidence of adverse events (AEs)and clinically significant lab parameters.

Safety Study of Crushed Deferasirox Film Coated Tablets in Pediatric Patients With Transfusional...

Iron Overload

This study employed a prospective, single-arm, global multi-center interventional open-label, non-randomized design to identify and assess safety profile of the crushed deferasirox FCT when administered up to 24 weeks in pediatric patients aged ≥2 to <6 years with transfusional hemosiderosis. The study was designed to enroll a minimum of 40 patients. Forty-four patients were treated and analyzed.

Oral Nifedipine to Treat Iron Overload

ThalassemiaIron Overload1 more

This study will determine if nifedipine, a medication used to treat high blood pressure, can help treat iron overload, a condition in which the body contains too much iron. Iron overload can be caused by the body's inability to regulate iron or by medical treatments, such as multiple blood transfusions. Over time, it can cause problems with the liver, heart and glands. Treatments include reducing iron intake in the diet or removing the excess iron using medical therapies. Recently, nifedipine was found to cause iron loss in the urine of small animals. This study will see if the drug can increase the removal of iron into the urine in humans as well. People 18 years of age and older with iron overload may be eligible for this study to undergo the following procedures: Study Day 1 Participants come to the NIH Clinical Center for a medical history, physical examination, blood and urine tests, electrocardiogram (EKG) and echocardiogram (heart ultrasound). Study Day 2 Participants will collect three urine samples: one is collected over 4 hours, followed by a second over 4 hours. Both of these samples are collected at NIH in the outpatient day hospital. At home, a third urine sample will be collected over 16 hours. For 1 week before the collections, participants are asked not to drink tea or eat foods high in Vitamin C or iron. They are also asked not to take any iron chelating medications. Study Day 3 Participants repeat the same urine collections as on day 2. They collect a 4-hour urine sample at the outpatient day hospital at NIH. They will then take a 20-mg tablet of nifedipine, and remain in the clinic 4 hours for blood pressure monitoring. A second urine sample during this time. They then return home to collect the final 16-hour sample, which they bring to the clinic the following day. Again, they are instructed to avoid a diet high in vitamin C, iron rich foods, tea, and to avoid taking any iron chelating medications. ...

A Study of Long-term Treatment With Deferasirox in Patients With Beta-thalassemia and Transfusional...

Beta-ThalassemiaHemosiderosis

Because patients with beta-thalassemia are unable to actively eliminate iron from the body, toxic and eventually lethal levels of iron can accumulate as a result of repeated blood transfusions. This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of deferasirox.

Pilot Study for Patients With Poor Response to Deferasirox

Transfusion-dependent HemachromatosisThalassemia Major1 more

This purpose of this study is to understand the differences between people who have a good response to deferasirox (exjade) compared to people who have a poor response to this medication when used for transfusion-dependent iron overload. The hypothesis is that patients with poor responses have physiologic barriers to deferasirox that may include absorption, pharmacokinetics of drug metabolism, hepatic clearance and/or genetic factors.
