Iron study for hospitalized patients with anemia and inflammation
Part of Blood & lymphatic clinical trials.
This study looks at whether giving iron to hospitalized patients with anemia and inflammation can help. It tracks how well the body responds to iron when both low red blood cells and inflammation are present.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have low red blood cells (anemia) within the first 3 days of being in the hospital.
- You have signs of inflammation (high C-reactive protein) at the same time.
- Your iron levels are in a specific range: enough storage but not enough iron available for your body to use.
- You have not taken iron supplements in the last month.
- You have not had a blood transfusion recently or are currently on EPO (a red blood cell booster).
- You do not have inherited blood disorders or recent chemotherapy.

This trial tests whether giving iron after a non–life-threatening stomach or bowel bleed can help rebuild blood levels and prevent problems related to iron deficiency. You would need to be stable after the bleeding is treated and meet specific blood and health criteria.
This study checks if patients leaving the ICU have low iron levels. It may help doctors understand and treat iron deficiency after a serious illness.
This trial tests whether iron supplements can help older patients recover better after a hip fracture. If you are 75 or older and have low iron levels, you may be able to join.
This trial tests whether giving an intravenous iron supplement (ferric derisomaltose) can help prevent anemia and improve quality of life in obese patients who have low iron stores. It aims to see if this treatment can boost energy and reduce fatigue.
This study checks iron levels in adults aged 75 and older during a severe infection to find and possibly treat iron problems. It may help improve recovery by managing iron better.
This trial tests whether a higher or lower dose of iron works better for people on peritoneal dialysis who have low iron levels. It aims to find the best way to treat iron deficiency in this group.
