Iron Stores and Skeletal Muscle Metabolism in Chronic Heart Failure

NCT02737995 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE1 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 8

Last updated 2016-08-15

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Iron deficiency may contribute to exercise intolerance by altering mitochondrial oxidative capacity in skeletal muscle. Functional iron deficiency is common in heart failure patients, but the relationship to exercise intolerance and mitochondrial oxidative capacity is unknown. This is a pilot study to determine the feasibility of the use of specialized 31P-MRS and MRI techniques for measurement of skeletal muscle bioenergetics in patients with heart failure with and without functional iron deficiency.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Ferric carboxymaltose infusion

Subjects with functional iron deficiency determined by the results of iron biomarker results at Visit 2 will receive a single dose of intravenous ferric carboxymaltose . The dose of Injectafer will be calculated from a modified Ganzoni equation adapted from previous heart failure clinical trials The maximum dose of Injectafer will be 750 mg. The calculated dose of Injectafer will be diluted in normal saline solution (4 mg/ml) and administered via a volumetric pump administered over 30 minutes.
