IV iron for non-ischemic heart failure with low iron
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether intravenous iron can improve outcomes for people with non-ischemic heart failure and low ejection fraction who are also iron deficient. If you fit the criteria, you may receive iron infusions to see if it helps your heart function and symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older and can give informed consent.
- You have heart failure with a low ejection fraction (< 40%) not caused by blocked arteries.
- You are iron deficient, based on a blood test (transferrin saturation below 20%).
- You are already on standard heart failure treatments, including an SGLT2 inhibitor, for at least 4 weeks.
- Your heart failure symptoms are mild to moderate (NYHA class I, II, or III).
- You do not have severe valve disease, a complex heart defect, active cancer, or a pacemaker/defibrillator.

This study compares two different doses of IV iron (low vs high) to see which works better for people with heart failure and low iron levels. It may help you feel less tired and breathe easier.
This study tests whether giving iron through a vein can help people with heart failure and low iron levels feel better. It compares iron treatment to no iron treatment.
This trial tests whether giving intravenous iron to adults hospitalized with heart failure and low iron levels helps improve their health. You may be eligible if you have heart failure with reduced pumping function and low iron stores.
This study tests whether a combination of intravenous (IV) iron and an SGLT2 inhibitor (a type of diabetes and heart failure medication) improves heart function and iron levels in people with heart failure and low iron. It may help strengthen your heart and improve your energy.
This study tests whether giving iron through a vein can improve quality of life in older adults who recently had a heart attack or unstable angina and also have low iron levels. If you qualify, you would receive either iron or a placebo (inactive substance) to see if iron helps you feel better and recover faster.
This study looks at how low iron levels affect heart rhythm problems and ECG results in people hospitalized with heart failure. It may help doctors understand if treating iron deficiency can reduce heart rhythm issues.
