BACKGROUND: Iron dextran administration is associated with a high incidence of adverse reactions including anaphylaxis and death. Although dextran, rather than iron, is believed to be the cause of these reactions, it is not known whether iron dextran-sensitive patients can be safely administered another form of parenteral iron, sodium ferric gluconate in sucrose (SFGC). METHODS: In a 69 center, prospective, double-blind, controlled trial of safety and tolerability of SFGC, the rate of reactions to SFGC and placebo in 144 iron dextran-sensitive patients was compared with 2194 patients who were previously tolerant to iron dextran preparations. Serum tryptase levels, a marker of mast cell degranulation, also were measured. RESULTS: Among 143 iron dextran-sensitive patients exposed to SFGC, three (2.1%) were intolerant. All three had suspected allergic events to SFGC, including one patient with a serious reaction (0.7%). One dextran-sensitive patient (0.7%) had a suspected allergic reaction after placebo. In contrast, among 2194 iron dextran-tolerant patients, reactions to SFGC were significantly less common, with SFGC intolerance seen in seven patients (0.3%; P = 0.020), including five (0.2%) who had suspected allergic events (P = 0.010), but none who had serious events (0.0%; P = 0.061). Two iron dextran-tolerant patients (0.09%) had allergic-like reactions following placebo injections. Two of the three suspected allergic events in the iron dextran-sensitive group were confirmed as mast cell dependent by a 100% increase in serum tryptase, while there were no confirmed allergic events in the iron dextran-tolerant group. Long-term exposure to SFGC in iron dextran-sensitive patients resulted in intolerance in only one additional patient and no serious adverse events. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with a history of iron dextran sensitivity had approximately sevenfold higher rates of reaction to both placebo and SFGC compared to iron dextran tolerant patients. However, logistic regression analysis, performed to account for the higher reaction rate to placebo, suggests that this increased reactivity was not drug-specific nor immunologically mediated, but represented host idiosyncrasy. These results support the conclusions that reactions to SFGC can be attributed to pseudoallergy, and that SFGC is not a true allergen. 相似文献

Intravenous iron therapy is recommended for children and adults who receive hemodialysis (HD) and recombinant human erythropoietin
(rHuEPO). However, limited information exists on the use of any maintenance IV iron regimen in children. Therefore, we conducted
a prospective, multicenter, open-label trial of maintenance therapy with sodium ferric gluconate complex (SFGC) in iron-replete
pediatric HD patients receiving rHuEPO. Patients received SFGC weekly at an initial dose of 1.0 mg kg−1 week−1, not to exceed 125 mg. Doses could be adjusted based on iron indices. Twenty-three patients (mean age: 13.2±2.39 years) were
enrolled and received at least one dose of SFGC, while twelve patients completed the study. After 12 weeks of treatment, the
mean SFGC dose delivered was 1.0 mg/kg. Mean TSAT and serum ferritin levels remained within NKF-K/DOQI target ranges and the
mean Hgb level remained unchanged from baseline. No unexpected or unusual safety risks were associated with SFGC use. In summary,
this experience provides evidence for the safety and efficacy of intravenous SFGC and supports the recommendation that the
maintenance SFGC starting dose should be 1.0 mg/kg, not to exceed 125 mg, with subsequent adjustments made according to TSAT
and/or serum ferritin levels. 相似文献

Pediatric patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing hemodialysis (HD) frequently develop anemia. Administration of recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) is effective in managing this anemia, although the additional demand for iron often results in iron deficiency. In adult patients undergoing HD, intravenous (IV) iron administration is known to replenish iron stores more effectively than oral iron administration. Nevertheless, IV iron supplementation is underutilized in pediatric patients, possibly because of unproved safety in this population. This international, multicenter study investigated the safety and efficacy of two dosing regimens (1.5 mg kg–1 and 3.0 mg kg–1) of sodium ferric gluconate complex (SFGC) therapy, during eight consecutive HD sessions, in iron-deficient pediatric HD patients receiving concomitant rHuEPO therapy. Safety was evaluated in 66 patients and efficacy was evaluated in 56 patients. Significant increases from baseline were observed in both treatment groups 2 and 4 weeks after cessation of SFGC dosing for mean hemoglobin, hematocrit, transferrin saturation, serum ferritin, and reticulocyte hemoglobin content. Efficacy and safety profiles were comparable for 1.5 mg kg–1 and 3.0 mg kg–1 SFGC with no unexpected adverse events with either dose. Administration of SFGC was safe and efficacious in the pediatric HD population. Given the equivalent efficacy of the two doses, an initial dosing regimen of 1.5 mg kg–1 is recommended for pediatric HD patients.An erratum to this article can be found at

Sodium ferric gluconate complex in sucrose: safer intravenous iron therapy than iron dextrans. 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
Use of recombinant human erythropoietin in patients with end-stage renal disease has highlighted iron deficiency as the major cause of resistant anemia. The current mainstay of intravenous (i.v.) iron replacement therapy, iron dextran, has been shown in prior studies to have a risk of serious life-threatening anaphylaxis of just under 1 per 100 patients exposed. The current study assessed the safety profile of an alternative i.v. iron, sodium ferric gluconate complex in sucrose (Ferrlecit), as compared with iron dextrans. Sodium ferric gluconate complex in sucrose, a unique chemical preparation, has been in use since 1959, principally in Europe, at a rate of approximately 2.7 million i.v. doses per year (1992 to 1996) in Germany and Italy alone. For iron dextran, usage in the United States was comparable--principally renal hemodialysis--and estimated from market sources at 3.0 million doses per year (1995). From 1976 to 1996, there were 74 allergic adverse events reported for sodium ferric gluconate complex in sucrose to the World Health Organization (WHO), German Health Bureau, and the manufacturer (all combined). For the years 1992 to 1996, sodium ferric gluconate complex in sucrose had an allergy event reporting rate of 3.3 allergy episodes per million doses per year compared with a similar rate of 8.7 reported allergy events per million doses per year for iron dextran in the United States in 1995. Case fatalities for sodium ferric gluconate complex in sucrose and iron dextran within these reports were then compared. For sodium ferric gluconate complex in sucrose, there were no reports of deaths over the entire period (1976 to 1996). However, for iron dextrans, there were 31 fatalities among 196 allergy/anaphylaxis cases reported in the United States between 1976 and 1996, yielding a case-fatality rate of 15.8%. These data show that sodium ferric gluconate complex in sucrose, when compared with iron dextrans in comparably sized patient usage populations with similar total rates of reporting of allergic events, has a significantly lower reported mortality rate (P < 0.001). Thus, the data justify usage of sodium ferric gluconate complex in sucrose as the safer iron replacement therapeutic agent. 相似文献

A new intravenous (i.v.) iron compound, sodium ferric gluconate complex in sucrose (Ferrlecit, R&D Laboratories, Inc, Marina Del Rey, CA), was administered over 8 consecutive dialysis days in equally divided doses to a total of either 0.5 or 1.0 g in a controlled, open, multicenter, randomized clinical study of anemic, iron-deficient hemodialysis patients receiving recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO). Effectiveness was assessed by increase in hemoglobin and hematocrit and changes of iron parameters. Results were compared with historically matched controls on oral iron. High-dose i.v. treatment with 1.0 g sodium ferric gluconate complex in sucrose resulted in significantly greater improvement in hemoglobin, hematocrit, iron saturation, and serum ferritin at all time points, as compared with low-dose i.v. (0.5 g) or oral iron treatment. Despite an initial improvement in mean serum ferritin and transferrin saturation, 500 mg i.v. therapy did not result in a significant improvement in hemoglobin at any time. Eighty-three of 88 patients completed treatment with sodium ferric gluconate complex in sucrose: 44 in the high-dose and 39 in the low-dose group. Two patients discontinued for personal reasons. The other three discontinued because of a rash, nausea and rash, and chest pain with pruritus, respectively. In comparison with 25 matched control patients, adverse events could not be linked to drug therapy, nor was there a dose effect. In conclusion, sodium ferric gluconate complex in sucrose is safe and effective in the management of iron-deficiency anemia in severely iron-deficient and anemic hemodialysis patients receiving rHuEPO. This study confirms the concepts regarding iron therapy expressed in the National Kidney Foundation Dialysis Outcomes Quality Initiative (NKF-DOQI) that hemodialysis patients with serum ferritin below 100 ng/mL or transferrin saturations below 18% need supplementation with parenteral iron in excess of 1.0 g to achieve optimal response in hemoglobin and hematocrit levels. 相似文献

Sodium ferric gluconate complex in haemodialysis patients: a prospective evaluation of long-term safety. 总被引:4,自引:1,他引:3

BACKGROUND: A previous single dose placebo-controlled double-blinded trial showed an extremely low (0.4%) intolerance rate of sodium ferric gluconate complex (SFGC) in SFGC-naive haemodialysis patients. No large prospective trials have assessed the safety of SFGC during repeated exposure in the outpatient haemodialysis setting. METHODS: Chronic haemodialysis patients completing the single-dose trial of SFGC were eligible to participate in this prospective, multicentre, open-label, long-term evaluation of SFGC, designed to record adverse events occurring up to 72 h post-dose. Patients received as many as 20 ampules (1250 mg total) of SFGC at an investigator-determined dose and rate over a 9 month evaluation period. RESULTS: Among 1412 enrolled patients at 54 centres, 1321 received 13,151 infusions of SFGC. Most doses (94.8%) were < or =125 mg and the majority were given over 10 min. Infusion rates ranged from <5 to 125 mg/min. There were no life-threatening events. Fifty-one patients (3.9%) experienced an adverse event, possibly related to SFGC. Of these, one experienced a serious event (hypotension). Five patients (0.4%) experienced an event that precluded SFGC readministration: pruritus (three), vasodilatation (one) and loss of taste (one). Among 372 patients (28.2%) receiving angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) therapy, adverse events were neither more common nor more severe than in the other patients. CONCLUSIONS: Repeated doses of SFGC are very well tolerated in haemodialysis patients. No life-threatening events were observed in over 13,000 doses administered. Administration of SFGC to patients using ACEI is safe and does not increase the incidence or severity of adverse events to SFGC. 相似文献

Intravenous iron treatment is an important component of anemia therapy for patients on dialysis. Until recently iron dextran was the only parenteral form of iron available in the United States. This drug has been associated with occasional serious adverse reactions, including full-blown anaphylaxis. In 1999 the Food and Drug Administration approved a second form of iron for intravenous administration, sodium ferric gluconate in sucrose. It is expected that by the time of this publication, a third agent, iron saccharate will also be approved. In this review the comparative safety of these three agents is critically evaluated. 相似文献

Intravenous infusion of sodium ferric gluconate (Ferrlecit) has been reported to be effective and safe in pediatric and adult
hemodialysis patients with iron depletion. We sought to expand on the previous studies by treating 13 consecutive pediatric
renal failure and renal transplant patients with sodium ferric gluconate doses that were higher than previously reported.
Efficacy was defined as: (1) an increase in hematocrit of ≥3 vol% with no change or a decrease in erythropoietin dose or (2)
a stable hematocrit with a decrease of ≥25% in the erythropoietin, 2 weeks to 2 months after sodium ferric gluconate infusion.
Two dosing strategies were employed: (1) high dose, where single dose sodium ferric gluconate (mg) ≈ calculated iron deficit,
and (2) sodium ferric gluconate, 62.5 mg/dose for children <40 kg, 125 mg/dose for children >40 kg, infused on eight consecutive
hemodialysis runs. There was only one self-limited adverse reaction in 60 doses. Three patients with previous adverse reactions
to iron dextran tolerated sodium ferric gluconate without adverse effect. Sodium ferric gluconate was efficacious in eight
out of ten patients that received a cumulative dose >5 mg/kg. The mean hematocrit increased 30.3±7.8 to 36.4±4.4 vol% (P=0.04) and the mean erythropoietin dose decreased 251.5±149.1 to 100.7±113.0 units/kg/week (P=0.02). Although sodium ferric gluconate appears to be effective and safe at the doses used, multicenter, prospective pharmacokinetic
and clinical trials of sodium ferric gluconate should be conducted in children.

Intravenous iron is necessary for optimal management of anemia in patients receiving hemodialysis and is utilized in the majority of these patients in the US. The availability of nondextran formulations of intravenous iron has significantly improved the safety of its use. The nondextran iron formulation sodium ferric gluconate complex (SFGC) has been extensively studied in the hemodialysis population, with two large phase IV trials documenting its safety. SFGC is efficacious and, at recommended doses, is associated with a low incidence of adverse events. There have been few comparative studies of the nondextran intravenous iron preparations; however, they are known to have different pharmacokinetic characteristics. There is also evidence to indicate that these compounds differ in terms of their cytotoxic and proinflammatory properties, and their propensity to induce oxidative stress. This paper reviews the current literature on the safety of SFGC and examines the emerging safety issues surrounding the use of intravenous iron. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) is a proatherosclerotic molecule, interrelated with oxidative stress in hemodialysis (HD) patients. As intravenous (IV) iron might enhance oxidative stress in HD patients, this study investigates circulating PAPP-A during HD session and after IV iron administration. METHODS: In 20 HD patients, plasma PAPP-A concentration was assessed immunochemically during 2 HD sessions (prior to HD and at 60, 130, and 240 min of HD session). Sodium ferric gluconate (62.5 mg) was given IV to all patients 65 min after the start of the second HD. RESULTS: Sixty-five min after IV iron application, there was a significant increase in plasma PAPP-A (from 36.0+/-9.9 to 79.6+/-28.9 mU/L, p<0.0001). At the end of this HD session, PAPP-A decreased significantly (p<0.0001), but still remained 1.5-fold greater compared with predialysis levels (p<0.0005). CONCLUSION: IV iron increases circulating PAPP-A, and in this way, it might contribute to more pronounced cardiovascular complications in HD patients. 相似文献

Recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) is an effective treatment for the anemia of chronic renal failure. However, adequate availability of iron is necessary for an optimal response. We prospectively evaluated the effect of an intravenous iron protocol in a pediatric hemodialysis unit. Patients with either a serum ferritin less than 150 ng/ml or transferrin saturation (TSAT) less than 20% received intravenous iron dextran during ten consecutive dialysis sessions. The administration of rHuEPO was adjusted using a protocol designed to maintain patient hematocrit between 33% and 36%. Thirteen courses of intravenous iron were evaluated. Patients received 4 mg/kg of iron dextran (maximum of 100 mg) during each of ten consecutive dialysis sessions. In 12 cases there was a decrease in rHuEPO use 2 months after completing the course of intravenous iron. The mean rHuEPO dose decreased from 3,784 units to 2,115 units (P<0.005). Based on the criteria of response to intravenous iron, a percentage iron saturation of less than 20% had a high specificity for detecting iron deficiency. All patients who received a course of intravenous iron had a TSAT less than 20%. The measurement of serum ferritin was less useful in our patients. 相似文献

We report the first case of a severe anaphylactic or anaphylactoid reaction to sodium ferric gluconate complex in a pregnant patient. Sodium ferric gluconate complex is felt to be one of the safest forms of iron therapy during pregnancy. This case highlights the need for extreme caution and vigilance in pregnant patients receiving any type of parenteral iron therapy. 相似文献

Although intravenous iron has proved to optimize the efficacy of EPOrHu in hemodialysis patients, hitherto no consensus exists with respect to the best regimen of intravenous iron administration. We started a prospective randomized study in 26 patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis who had adequate iron metabolism indices (serum ferritin >100 microg/l; %TSAT >20%; %HypoE <10% and CHr >26 pg) and were in the maintenance phase of EPOrHu administration (target hemoglobin obtained >10 g/dl). All patients were receiving sodium ferric gluconate (Ferrlecit) intermittently prior to the study and after a 1-month wash-out period where iron was not administered patients were randomized to receive the same previous dose of intravenous iron either in a continuous (6.25-21.3 mg in every hemodialysis session) or an intermittent regimen (62.5 mg every 1-4 weeks, not modifying the previous schedule of administration). At 16 weeks, the continuous group showed a significant increment in serum Hb (11.83 +/- 1.12 g/dl) with respect to baseline (10.96 +/- 1.31 g/dl) (p < 0.05), whereas no differences were obtained in intermittent group (baseline: 11.16 +/- 1.03 g/dl; 16 weeks: 11.14 +/- 0.90 g/dl, NS). In contrast with the intermittent group, serum ferritin increased significantly in the continuous group (16 weeks: 508 +/- 157 microg/l; baseline: 368 +/- 56 microg/l; p < 0.05), whereas %TSAT and CHr did not modified during the study in both groups. %HypoE increased significantly with respect to baseline values in the continuous group (p < 0.05) and close to significantly different in the intermittent group (p = 0.06). Our study suggests that hemodialysis patients in the maintenance phase of EPOrHu administration would obtain further benefit in terms of serum hemoglobin level with a continuous intravenous serum ferric gluconate regimen, at least in the short term. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Polymorphonuclear cell (PMN) dysfunction and the increased use of parenteral iron may be important contributory factors to bacterial infections among patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on maintenance hemodialysis (HD). We compared the in vitro impact of a commonly used parenteral iron preparation, iron dextran, on PMN function and viability between a group of HD patients with normal iron indices and healthy subjects. METHODS: Eleven patients with ESRD on HD and 10 healthy subjects were studied. PMN harvested from heparinized blood were incubated with iron dextran (0 - 20 mM) in culture medium (RPMI) for 24 hours at 37 degrees C with 5% CO2 following which function and viability were assessed by flow cytometry using appropriate fluorescent labels. RESULTS: Unstimulated, S. aureus and N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP)-stimulated hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production was significantly higher in PMN unexposed to iron dextran from HD patients compared to those from healthy subjects. Iron dextran had no impact on unstimulated PMN H2O2 production in either group. In the healthy group, the only significant change occurred with 4-beta-phorbol 12-beta-myristate 13-alpha-acetate (PMA) stimulation, where cells exposed to 0.2 and 2.0 mM iron dextran produced less H2O2 relative to PMN unexposed to iron dextran (p < 0.05). In the HD group, all concentrations of iron dextran significantly attenuated H2O2 production stimulated by S. aureus, fMLP and PMA compared to PMN unexposed to iron dextran. Although PMN phagocytosis decreased with exposure to increasing concentration of iron dextran in both healthy subjects and HD patients, these changes did not achieve statistical significance. No significant changes in PMN viability or apoptosis were seen in either group after exposure to iron dextran. CONCLUSIONS: These results indicate that iron dextran, a standard parenteral iron preparation, attenuates PMN function in HD patients with normal iron indices at clinically relevant concentrations. Further studies are required to evaluate and compare the impact of newer preparations of parenteral iron, such as iron sucrose and ferric gluconate, on PMN function. 相似文献
