Popis: | No information is available on the efficacy of ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) in real-world CKD patients outside the hemodialysis setting. We prospectively followed 59 non-hemodialysis CKD patients with iron deficient anemia (IDA: hemoglobin < 12.0/< 13.5 g/dL in women/men and TSAT < 20% and/or ferritin < 100 ng/mL) who were intolerant or non-responders to oral iron. Patients received ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) (single dose of 500 mg) followed by additional doses if iron deficiency persisted. We evaluated efficacy of FCM in terms of increase of hemoglobin, ferritin, and TSAT levels. Direct and indirect costs of FCM were also analyzed in comparison with a hypothetical scenario where same amount of iron as ferric gluconate (FG) was administered intravenously. During the 24 weeks of study, 847 ± 428 mg of FCM per patient were administered. IDA improved after four weeks of FCM and remained stable thereafter. At week-24, mean change (95%CI) from baseline of hemoglobin, ferritin and TSAT were +1.16 g/dL (0.55–1.77), +104 ng/mL (40–168) and +9.5% (5.8–13.2), respectively. These changes were independent from ESA use and clinical setting (non-dialysis CKD, peritoneal dialysis and kidney transplant). Among ESA-treated patients (n = 24), ESA doses significantly decreased by 26% with treatment and stopped either temporarily or persistently in nine patients. FCM, compared to a FG-based scenario, was associated with a cost saving of 288 euros/patient/24 weeks. Saving was the same in ESA users/non-users. Therefore, in non-hemodialysis CKD patients, FCM effectively corrects IDA and allows remarkable cost savings in terms of societal, healthcare and patient perspective. |
