Ferric derisomaltose therapy and heart failure: implications and molecular insights.

ABSTRACT: Iron is essential to the production of myocardial energy and proteins critical for cardiovascular function. Nearly 50% of patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) meet current criteria for iron deficiency, and there has been considerable interest in intravenous repletion of iron stores as a therapeutic strategy to improve HFrEF outcomes. However, the data on intravenous iron therapy in HFrEF have been mixed.

Project description:BackgroundIn patients with iron deficiency anemia, ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) and ferric derisomaltose (FDI) allow high-dose iron repletion. While FCM is reported to induce hypophosphatemia, the frequency of hypophosphatemia after an equivalent dosage of FDI had not been assessed prospectively.MethodsIn the prospective, single-center, double-blind HOMe aFers study, 26 women with iron deficiency anemia (hemoglobin < 12 g/dL plus either plasma ferritin ≤ 100 ng/mL or a plasma ferritin ≤ 300 ng/mL and transferrin saturation (TSAT) ≤ 30%) were randomized to a single intravenous infusion of 20 mg/kg body weight (up to a maximum of 1000 mg) FCM or FDI. The primary endpoint was the incidence of hypophosphatemia (plasma phosphorus levels < 2.0 mg/dL at day 1, day 7 ± 2, and/or day 35 ± 2 after the infusion). In order to investigate potential skeletal and cardiovascular implications, we assessed changes in other components of mineral and bone metabolism, left ventricular function, and arrhythmias.ResultsHypophosphatemia occurred more frequently in women treated with FCM (9 out of 12 [75%]) than in those treated with FDI (1 out of 13 [8%]; p = 0.001). Within 24 h after iron supplementation, women in the FCM group had significant higher plasma intact FGF23 (p < 0.001) and lower plasma 1.25-dihydroxyvitamin D (p < 0.001). As an indicator of urinary phosphorus losses, urinary fractional phosphorus excretion was higher in the FCM group (p = 0.021 at day 7 ± 2 after iron supplementation). We did not observe differences in skeletal and cardiovascular markers, potentially because of the limited number of participants.ConclusionsWhile both FCM and FDI provide efficient iron repletion in participants with iron deficiency anemia, FCM induced hypophosphatemia more often than FDI.Trial registrationClinical Trials.gov NCT02905539.

Project description:IntroductionIntravenous (IV) iron is the preferred treatment for patients with iron deficiency anemia (IDA) who require rapid replenishment of iron stores or in whom oral iron is not tolerated or effective. Data from two large-scale randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have recently been published reporting the incidence of adjudicated cardiovascular events after ferric derisomaltose (FDI) and iron sucrose (IS). The objective was to calculate the relative incidence of cardiovascular events with FDI and IS, and to conduct an indirect comparison with ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) based on previously published studies of cardiovascular risk.MethodsRCTs reporting the incidence of blindly adjudicated cardiovascular events in IDA patients treated with IV iron were identified by systematic literature review (SLR). Pairwise random effects meta-analyses of FDI versus IS, and FCM versus IS were conducted for the pre-specified adjudicated composite cardiovascular endpoint of: death due to any cause, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, unstable angina requiring hospitalization, congestive heart failure, arrhythmia, and protocol-defined hypertensive and hypotensive events. Analyses were also conducted for the composite endpoint excluding blood pressure events. Meta-analysis results were combined in an adjusted indirect comparison to provide an indirect estimate of cardiovascular risk with FDI versus FCM.ResultsThe SLR retrieved 694 unique articles, of which four were RCTs reporting the incidence of the composite cardiovascular endpoint; two studies comparing FCM (N = 1529) with IS (N = 1505), and two studies comparing FDI (N = 2008) with IS (N = 1000). The odds ratios of the composite CV endpoint were 0.59 (95% confidence interval: 0.39-0.90) for FDI versus IS, 1.12 (95% CI 0.90-1.40) for FCM versus IS, and the indirect OR for FDI versus FCM was 0.53 (95% CI 0.33-0.85).ConclusionsPooling data from four large-scale RCTs suggested that FDI was associated with significantly lower incidence of cardiovascular adverse events compared to both FCM and IS.
