Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether intravenous (IV) iron can help people with pulmonary hypertension feel better, have more energy, and enjoy a better quality of life. You may qualify if you have a type of pulmonary hypertension and low iron levels.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You must be 18 years or older.

This study tests whether intravenous (IV) iron therapy can help older adults who have heart failure with preserved pumping function and low iron levels. It aims to improve symptoms and quality of life.
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 an oral iron supplement (a pill called sucrosomial iron) can help people with heart failure who have low iron feel better, have more energy, and walk farther. Participants will take the iron pill or a placebo (a pill without the active ingredient) for a period and will do exercise tests and answer questionnaires to see how they improve.
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.
This study tests whether giving intravenous iron improves symptoms, quality of life, and exercise ability in people with heart failure and low iron levels. Participants will receive iron infusions and be monitored over time to see if their condition improves.
This study checks how common iron deficiency is in people with HFpEF (heart failure with preserved pumping strength) and tests whether an iron infusion (Ferinject®) improves health. It targets people with stable heart symptoms and lab results showing low iron stores or related iron deficiency.
