Proteinuria induced by parenteral iron in chronic kidney disease--a comparative randomized controlled trial.
    Clinical journal of the American Society of Nephrology : CJASN, 2011, Volume: 6, Issue:1

    Among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), differences in proteinuria are seen between intravenous iron preparations after a single dose exposure. This study examined differences in proteinuria between two intravenous iron preparations after multiple doses.. Patients with iron-deficiency anemia and CKD, stratified by angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI)/angiotensin receptor-blocker (ARB) use, were randomized to iron sucrose or ferric gluconate. Each patient at 12 centers received 100 mg of study drug weekly for 5 weeks. Urine protein/urine creatinine ratio was measured before each dose and frequently thereafter for 3 hours.. Postbaseline data were available from 33 patients receiving iron sucrose and 29 patients receiving ferric gluconate. Although neither preparation of intravenous iron increased the predose level of proteinuria, the proteinuric response to intravenous iron was dependent on the type of iron and ACEI/ARB use. Without ACEIs/ARBs, ferric gluconate tended to cause less proteinuria with repeated iron administration; iron sucrose did not mitigate or aggravate proteinuria. Among patients receiving ACEIs/ARBs, in contrast to ferric gluconate, which produced only mild transient proteinuria, iron sucrose produced a consistent and persistent proteinuric response that was on average 78% greater.. Although multiple doses of either intravenous iron did not increase basal levels of proteinuria, postdose proteinuria was greater with iron sucrose than with ferric gluconate. These data suggest that nephrotoxicity of iron may depend on type of intravenous iron and on ACEI/ARB use. The long-term effects on kidney function need to be further evaluated.

A randomized controlled trial of oral versus intravenous iron in chronic kidney disease.
    American journal of nephrology, 2006, Volume: 26, Issue:5

    It is unknown whether intravenous iron or oral iron repletion alone can correct anemia associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We conducted a randomized multicenter controlled trial in adult anemic, iron-deficient non-dialysis CKD (ND-CKD) patients (>or=stage 3) not receiving erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs).. The participants were randomized to receive either a sodium ferric gluconate complex (intravenous iron) 250 mg i.v. weekly x 4 or ferrous sulfate (oral iron) 325 mg t.i.d. x 42 days. Hemoglobin (Hgb), ferritin and transferrin saturation (TSAT) were measured serially, and the Kidney Disease Quality of Life (KDQoL) questionnaire was administered on days 1 and 43. The primary outcome variable was change from baseline (CFB) to endpoint in Hgb values.. Seventy-five patients were analyzed (intravenous iron n = 36, oral iron n = 39). CFB in Hgb was similar in the two groups (intravenous iron 0.4 g/dl vs. oral iron 0.2 g/dl, p = n.s.). However, the increase in Hgb was only significant with intravenous iron (p < 0.01). In comparison to oral iron, intravenous iron achieved greater improvements in ferritin (232.0 +/- 160.8 vs. 55.9 +/- 236.2 ng/ml, p < 0.001) and TSAT (8.3 +/- 7.5 vs. 2.9 +/- 8.8%, p = 0.007). Intravenous iron caused greater improvements in KDQoL scores than oral iron (p < 0.05). The most common side effect reported with intravenous iron was hypotension, while constipation was more common with oral iron.. Oral and intravenous iron similarly increase Hgb in anemic iron-depleted ND-CKD patients not receiving ESAs. Although in comparison to oral iron, intravenous iron may result in a more rapid repletion of iron stores and greater improvement in quality of life, it exposes the patients to a greater risk of adverse effects and increases inconvenience and cost.

Oxidative stress, inflammation and cardiovascular mortality in haemodialysis--role of seniority and intravenous ferrotherapy: analysis at 4 years of follow-up.
    Nephrology, dialysis, transplantation : official publication of the European Dialysis and Transplant Association - European Renal Association, 2006, Volume: 21, Issue:4

    Cardiovascular disease is the principal cause of morbidity and mortality in haemodialysis patients. The classic risk factors do not account for all cases of elevated cardiovascular disease in this patient population and it is becoming increasingly clear that other cardiovascular risk factors are implicated. The objective of this study was to analyse whether or not C-reactive protein (CRP) and plasma copper oxidized anti-lipoprotein (oxLDL) antibody titre are risk factors for cardiovascular mortality during 4 years of follow-up.. A prospective follow-up study was carried out in 94 stable, chronic haemodialysis patients for 48 months (July 1999-July 2003) (gender: 50 males and 44 females; mean age: 67+/-14 years). Eighty-four per cent of these patients were receiving intravenous erythropoietin and 63% were receiving intravenous ferrotherapy (iron gluconate). Basal markers of inflammation and oxidative stress were determined at the beginning of the study. CRP levels were determined by chemiluminescent enzyme-labelled immunometric assay. The oxLDL antibody titre was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using native LDL and oxLDL as antigens.. Fifty deaths occurred during the study, 66% (n = 33) of which were due to cardiovascular disease. Patients presented with basal CRP and oxLDL levels indicative of chronic inflammation and elevated oxidative stress [CRP median: 5.16 mg/l (25-75% percentile: 0.35-88.7 mg/l); oxLDL antibodies median: 153 (optical density at 495 nm x 1000) (25-75% percentile: 112-214)]. A positive correlation was found between CRP and age (r = 0.33, P = 0.003). Study of the risk factors demonstrated that age (P = 0.007), oxLDL antibody titre (P = 0.04) and albumin (P = 0.02) were the only predictors of cardiovascular mortality at 4 years of follow-up in this patient population. The Cox proportional hazards model for cardiovascular mortality showed that of the markers studied, oxLDL antibody titre was an independent risk factor for cardiovascular mortality.. Oxidative stress (oxLDL antibody titre) is one of the principal risk factors for cardiovascular mortality in this population of haemodialysis patients. Intravenous ferrotherapy, due to its pro-oxidant properties, probably favours oxidative stress. Serum concentration of CRP was not a good predictive factor of cardiovascular mortality during 4 years of follow-up, possibly because of the slight positive correlation that exists between CRP and age.

Iron deficiency in patients with chronic kidney disease: potential role for intravenous iron therapy independent of erythropoietin.
    International urology and nephrology, 2006, Volume: 38, Issue:3-4

    The prevalence of iron deficiency and its contribution to the anemia of end stage renal disease has been extensively studied, but much less is known about the role of iron deficiency in the pathogenesis of the anemia of chronic kidney disease in predialysis patients. All new hemodialysis patients entering a single hemodialysis unit between July 1999 and April 2002 were included in the study. The admission laboratory tests and the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) 2728 form were examined to determine the prevalence of erythropoietin use, anemia (Hb<11 g/dl), and iron deficiency (ferritin<100 ng/ml and transferrin saturation %<20%). In a second part of the study, the effect of intravenous iron gluconate replacement in patients with stage III & IV chronic kidney disease was examined. Anemia was present in 68% of all patients starting hemodialysis. Iron deficiency was a common feature occurring in 29% of patients taking erythropoietin (49% of all patients) and 26% of patients without erythropoietin (51% of all patients). Following the administration of intravenous iron gluconate to four patients, there was a significant rise in hemoglobin levels from 10.6+/-0.19 to 11.7+/-g/dl (p=0.02).. Iron deficiency is common in predialysis patients. Replenishing iron stores in anemic patients with chronic kidney disease significantly increases hemoglobin levels and should be considered as an integral part of the therapy for treating anemia in the predialysis population.
