Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the time point of transferrin saturation (TSAT) and ferritin stabilization after a thirteen-treatment period following a ferumoxytol load, as well as to determine the point at which serum ferritin and TSAT concentrations can be checked in iron deficiency anemia (IDA) hemodialysis patients.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Chronic hemodialysis subjects who have received dialysis treatment for more than 90 days
  • TSAT less than or equal to 25 percent
  • Serum ferritin less than or equal to 200 nanograms/milliliter (ng/mL)
  • (Female) Subjects are willing to use reliable contraception, or have undergone menopause (chemical or surgical)
  • Subjects who are able to read and write in English
  • Subjects who have signed consent

Exclusion Criteria

  • Subjects who have been enrolled in a clinical trial within the past 30 days
  • Subjects who have received IV iron within 4 weeks of the start of the study
  • Serum ferritin greater than or equal to 1200 ng/dL
  • Hemoglobin (Hb) less than 10 grams/deciliter (g/dL), or greater than 13.5 g/dL
  • Evidence of iron overload
  • Known hypersensitivity to ferumoxytol or any of its components
  • Anemia caused by conditions other than iron deficiency
  • Subjects with elective surgeries scheduled within the next 3 months
  • Subjects with elective magnetic resonance procedure scheduled during the study period
  • Subjects who have been hospitalized within the past 30 days (excluding vascular access care)
  • Subjects who have received a blood transfusion in the past 30 days
  • Subjects who are transfusion dependent
  • (Female) Subjects who are pregnant or nursing
  • Subjects with known inflammatory conditions which may affect serum ferritin
  • Subjects who are considered to be clinically unstable at the discretion of Principal Investigator (P.I.)
  • Subjects who have a clinically unstable blood pressure (BP) of systolic greater than 180 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and/or diastolic greater than 100 mmHg (sitting, pre-dialysis)
  • Subjects with life expectancy less than 6 months
  • Subjects who refuse to sign consent
