Official title

Iron Needed for Function and Undesirable Symptoms in Elderly With Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

Overview

This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial evaluates intravenous ferric derisomaltose in older adults with HFpEF and iron deficiency.

Interventions

  • Drug Ferric derisomaltose
    Intravenous ferric derisomaltose dose is determined by participant body weight and baseline hemoglobin and ranges from 500 mg to 2000 mg, administered as a single infusion.
  • Drug Placebo (normal saline)
    To preserve blinding, the normal saline placebo dose is also determined by participant body weight and baseline hemoglobin and ranges from 500 mg to 2000 mg, administered as a single infusion.

Primary outcome measures

  • Hierarchical composite of mortality, all-cause hospitalization, and ≥5-point KCCQ-12 improvement. [Time frame: 6 months]
Secondary outcome measures (1)
  • 6-MWT [Time frame: 6 months]
