Detailed Description
Background: Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) still remains universally a worldwide problematics. Anemia is defined as a hemoglobin value <12.0 g/dL (7.45 mmol/L). Management of IDA is based on martial iron supplementation. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effects of martial therapy, comparing different formulations, sucrosomal ferric pyrophosphate, SunActive®Fe micronized and ferric gluconate and different ways of administration, orally and intravenous, in subjects affected by sideropenic microcytic hypochromic anemia identified by the simultaneous presence of anemia, microcytosis and hypoferremia.
Trial Design, Methods and Findings: Clinical data from 106 outpatients (82.8% female and 17.2% male, mean age 50.4 years) were collected at Department of Internal Medicine, National Relevance and High Specialization Hospital Trust, ARNAS Civico-Di Cristina-Benfratelli, Palermo, Italy. The study envisaged five arms (2 + 3). At the first two arms were assigned patients with non-severe anemia Hb> 10 g/dl (Hb <12 g/dl for women and Hb <13 g/dl for men), treated with SunActive®Fe micronized or Lipofer®. At the other three arms were assigned patients with severe anemia (Hb <10 g/dl) treated respectively with SunActive®Fe micronized, Lipofer® or with intravenous ferric gluconate infusions according to departmental protocols. The followed methodology is defined in the PROBE project (acronym of Prospective Randomized Open Blinded End-point). The end points will be blinded with respect to the three treatments, as it will be the statistical analysis.

Experimental: Patients with non-severe anemia treated with SunActive®Fe
Patients with non-severe anemia Hb> 10 g/dl (Hb <12 g/dl for women and Hb <13 g/dl for men), treated with SunActive®Fe micronized
|
SunActive® Fe is a colorless, odorless, tasteless iron fortifier in a powder form.
This product is most commonly used to increase the amount of iron in food, beverage, and dietary supplement applications.
|
Experimental: Patients with non-severe anemia treated with Lipofer®
Patients with non-severe anemia Hb> 10 g/dl (Hb <12 g/dl for women and Hb <13 g/dl for men), treated with Lipofer®
|
Lipofer® is a micronized and microencapsulated source of iron, enhances the bioavailability of iron and does not taste metallic or oxidize unsaturated fats.
|
Experimental: Patients with severe anemia with Lipofer®
Patients with severe anemia (Hb <10 g/dl) treated respectively with Lipofer®
|
Lipofer® is a micronized and microencapsulated source of iron, enhances the bioavailability of iron and does not taste metallic or oxidize unsaturated fats.
|

Experimental: Patients with severe anemia with intravenous ferric gluconate
Patients with severe anemia (Hb <10 g/dl) treated respectively with intravenous ferric gluconate according to departmental protocols
|
Sodium ferric gluconate complex is an iron replacement product for treatment of iron deficiency anemia.
The stable macromolecular complex is negatively charged at alkaline pH with an apparent molecular weight of 289,000 - 440,000 daltons on gel chromatography.
It is composed of iron (III) oxide hydrate directly bonded to sucrose with a chelating gluconate function in a molar ratio of two iron molecules to one gluconate.
