Summary

As a follow-up to the RAPIDIRON Trial (NCT05358509), and in combination with the RAPIDIRON-KIDS Study (NCT05504863), this study will involve infants of RAPIDIRON Trial participants recruited at one site in Karnataka and is designed to implement a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) protocol and incorporate neuroimaging measures. Implementation of this study will promote an understanding of the effects on fetal and neonatal brain development, including iron deposition in brain tissues, when a woman is treated for iron deficiency anemia (IDA) by either (a) providing her oral iron tablets and instructions for use; or (b) administering a single-dose IV iron infusion for the treatment of IDA during pregnancy.

Interventions

DRUG

Ferric carboxymaltose

As part of the RAPIDIRON Trial, maternal participants randomized to intervention arm 1 were given a single dose of ferric carboxymaltose between 14 and 17 weeks of pregnancy.

DRUG

Iron isomaltoside

As part of the RAPIDIRON Trial, maternal participants randomized to intervention arm 2 were given a single dose of iron isomaltoside between 14 and 17 weeks of pregnancy.

DRUG
