Popis: | Iron deficiency anemia is common and consequential in nondialysis-dependent CKD (NDD-CKD). Efficacy and tolerability of conventional oral iron supplements are mixed; intravenous iron administration associates with finite but important risks. We conducted a randomized double-blind clinical trial in adults with NDD-CKD and iron deficiency anemia to compare the safety and efficacy of oral ferric citrate (n=117) and placebo (n=115). The primary end point was the proportion of patients who achieved a ≥1.0 g/dl increase in hemoglobin at any time during a 16-week randomized period. Patients who completed the 16-week period could also participate in an 8-week open-label extension period. Significantly more patients randomized to ferric citrate achieved the primary end point (61 [52.1%] versus 22 [19.1%] with placebo; P |
