Description

Deferiprone (DFP) is a chelating agent used to treat iron overload in patients with thalassemia and other blood disorders. It was originally synthesized in the 1970s and its use as an iron chelator was discovered shortly after. Deferiprone is a small molecule with a high affinity for iron and forms a stable complex with it. This allows the body to excrete excess iron through the urine. The compound has been shown to be effective in reducing iron overload and improving survival rates in patients with thalassemia. It is also being investigated for its potential use in treating other iron-related diseases, such as hemochromatosis. Deferiprone is typically administered orally. It is relatively well-tolerated, although it can cause side effects such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. In rare cases, it can also cause more serious side effects, such as agranulocytosis (a low white blood cell count). Therefore, close monitoring of patients receiving deferiprone is necessary. Deferiprone is a promising treatment option for iron overload, but further research is needed to optimize its use and minimize its side effects.'

Treatment

Deferiprone treatment tended to decrease muscle iron levels in mdx mice (-30%, P < 0.1), which was associated with lower oxidative stress and fibrosis. The deferiprone-treated group had significantly decreased skin thickness (p<0.05) and significantly decreased dermal fibrosis compared to the Omniscan-only group.

Deferiprone at a dose of 75 mg/kg/day is not sufficiently effective to maintain iron stores at a level which has been considered safe in all patients with iron overload. No beneficial effects of deferiprone on these adverse effects could be observed.

Bioavailability

5 birds were used for a bioavailability study of deferiprone administered intravenously at the same dose. Six NIL-DFP birds were also administered deferipron intravenously to determine the bioavailability of the drug after a 30-day washout period.

Dosage Studied

Deferiprone induced declines in proliferative responses at a dosage that is within peak serum pharmacological concentrations. Combination chelation therapy with desferrioxamine and deferiprone suggested as a more effective tissue iron-chelating treatment for transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia patients.

Assess whether Deferiprone therapy directly affects the symptoms of Parkinson's disease, modify regional brain mineralization (iron concentration) as assessed with T2* MRI in PD patients in the dentate nucleus.

MRI R2* scans of this region were performed at baseline and Month 18 in a subset of patients who did not have a deep brain stimulation (DBS) device implanted, and for whom the use of anesthesia, if required, was deemed acceptable by the investigator.

The individual scores are summed to provide a total score ranging from 0 to 32, with higher scores indicating greater severity.

Change in Score on Functional Independence Measure

The Functional Independence Measure (FIM) scale is used to assess physical and cognitive disability in three areas of daily living: self-care, mobility, and cognition. Within each area, items are scored according to the level of assistance required to perform that activity of daily living. A score of 1-2 indicates that the patient is completely dependent on a helper to perform the task, a score of 3-5 indicates that the patient is moderately dependent, and a score of 6-7 indicates that no help is required. The individual scores are summed to provide a global score from 18 (worst) to 126 (best). (NCT01741532)

The Percentage of Patients in Each Treatment Group Who Experience Post-dose Increases in Liver Enzyme Levels That Are Considered a Safety Concern.

"Levels of the liver enzymes alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) will be assessed throughout the study to determine if any patients have post-dose increases that are considered to be a safety concern. The criteria for being considered a safety concern are meeting one of the following:~For a patient whose level was within the normal range at baseline, the criterion is reaching a value of 5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN)~For a patient whose level was above the ULN at baseline, the criterion is reaching either 5 times the baseline value or 10 x ULN" (NCT03802916)
