deferiprone has been researched along with Cardiac Diseases in 14 studies

Deferiprone: A pyridone derivative and iron chelator that is used in the treatment of IRON OVERLOAD in patients with THALASSEMIA.
deferiprone : A member of the class of 4-pyridones that is pyridin-4(1H)-one substituted at positions 1 and 2 by methyl groups and at position 3 by a hydroxy group. A lipid-soluble iron-chelator used for treatment of thalassaemia.

"For nearly 30 years, patients with transfusional iron overload have depended on nightly deferoxamine infusions for iron chelation."8.83Oral chelators deferasirox and deferiprone for transfusional iron overload in thalassemia major: new data, new questions. ( Neufeld, EJ, 2006)
"For nearly 30 years, patients with transfusional iron overload have depended on nightly deferoxamine infusions for iron chelation."4.83Oral chelators deferasirox and deferiprone for transfusional iron overload in thalassemia major: new data, new questions. ( Neufeld, EJ, 2006)
"Combination chelation therapy with desferrioxamine and deferiprone has recently been suggested as a more effective tissue iron-chelating treatment for transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia patients, although a standard dosage protocol has not yet been established."3.74Intensive chelation therapy in beta-thalassemia and possible adverse cardiac effects of desferrioxamine. ( Aessopos, A; Deftereos, S; Farmakis, D; Kati, M; Polonifi, E; Tsironi, M, 2007)
"Deferiprone, because of its lower molecular weight, might cross into heart mitochondria more efficiently, improving their activity and, thereby, myocardial cell function."1.39Long-term treatment with deferiprone enhances left ventricular ejection function when compared to deferoxamine in patients with thalassemia major. ( Barone, R; Calvaruso, G; Campisi, S; Capra, M; Caruso, V; Casale, M; Ciancio, A; Cianciulli, P; Cuccia, L; D'Ascola, G; Filosa, A; Gagliardotto, F; Gerardi, C; Maggio, A; Pitrolo, L; Prossomariti, L; Rigano, P; Rizzo, M; Vitrano, A, 2013)
"The risk of cardiac death during 1990-1999 and 2000-2008 was compared."1.36Relation of chelation regimes to cardiac mortality and morbidity in patients with thalassaemia major: an observational study from a large Greek Unit. ( Berdoukas, V; Berdoussi, E; Chouliaras, G; Kattamis, C; Ladis, V; Moraitis, P; Zannikos, K, 2010)
"Deferoxamine (DFO) therapy has been associated with improved survival of thalassemia patients."1.33Cardiac morbidity and mortality in deferoxamine- or deferiprone-treated patients with thalassemia major. ( Borgna-Pignatti, C; Cappellini, MD; Cnaan, A; De Stefano, P; Del Vecchio, GC; Forni, GL; Gamberini, MR; Ghilardi, R; Piga, A; Romeo, MA; Zhao, H, 2006)
"Deferiprone is an iron chelator that has the potential to be more effective than deferoxamine in removing intracellular iron from the heart."1.32Comparative effects of deferiprone and deferoxamine on survival and cardiac disease in patients with thalassemia major: a retrospective analysis. ( Fogliacco, E; Gaglioti, C; Piga, A; Tricta, F, 2003)
