Ages Eligible for Study
Accepts Healthy Volunteers
Description
Key inclusion criteria:
- Age 1-21 years old (muscle strength will be assessed only in children >3 year old)
- Estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) < 90 ml/min/1.73m2 by bedside Schwartz formula [height (cm) *0.413 / serum creatinine (mg/dL)]

- Hb less than 11.5 g/dL in children younger than 5 years Hb less than 12.0 g/dL in children 5-12 years Hb <12.5 g/dL in children 12-15 yrs and females >15 yrs. Hb <13.5 g/dL in males >15 years (all at the previous clinic visit)
Children with transferrin saturation ≤ 20% AND serum ferritin ≤ 100 ng/mL will be randomized into one of the arms
Key exclusion criteria:
- Transferrin saturation <5%
- Serum ferritin < 10 ng/mL
- Iron therapy or erythrocyte stimulating agents (erythropoietin) therapy within 3 months prior to randomization
- Blood transfusion within 4 months prior to enrollment
- Children on hemodialysis
- Rapidly deteriorating kidney function or expectation for transplantation or dialysis in less than 3 months
- Pregnancy and breast-feeding

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Oral Iron therapy
Participant will receive oral iron therapy.
|
Oral iron will be given in the form of immediate-release iron sulfate, 3-6 mg/kg/day of elemental iron to children with body weight ≤43 kg, and 65 mg of elemental iron (325 mg of iron sulfate) to children with body weight >43 kg.
Other Names:
|
No Intervention: No oral iron therapy
Participant will not receive oral iron therapy for 3 months.
|
What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in muscle strength
Time Frame: 0 and 3 months
|
Hand-grip strength measured by a dynamometer
|
0 and 3 months
|
Change in the percentage of transferrin saturation in the participants' blood
Time Frame: 0 and 3 months
|
Transferrin saturation is a medical laboratory value, measured as a percentage. It is the value of serum iron concentration divided by the total iron-binding capacity. For instance, a value of 15% means that 15% of iron-binding sites of transferrin are being occupied by iron. Blood will be collected with the venopuncture used for clinically indicated blood tests at routine clinic visits |
0 and 3 months
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in sedentary time
Time Frame: 0 and 3 months
|
Sedentary time (in minutes per day) will be measured by actigraphy.
Actigraph is a monitor that looks like a wristband or a watch that measures and records body movements throughout the day.
Participating children will wear actigraphs for 7 days in the beginning and 7 days at the conclusion of the study.
|
0 and 3 months
|
Change in the percent of skeletal muscle mass
Time Frame: 0 and 3 months
|
Percent of skeletal muscle mass out of body weight will be measured using bio-electrical impedance analysis.
|
0 and 3 months
|
Change in eating behavior
Time Frame: 0 and 3 months
|
Appetite / eating behavior assessed using Children's Eating Behavior Questionnaire (CEBQ).
It is a parent-report measure comprised of 35 items, each rated as "Never", "Rarely", "Sometimes", "Often", "Always".
The answers will be grouped into the domains to assess eating styles of the participating children, such as: "Enjoyment of food", "Slowness in eating", "Emotional under-eating", "Food fussiness".
|
0 and 3 months
|
Change in quality of life: PROMIS
Time Frame: 0 and 3 months
|
Quality of life will be assessed in the Fatigue, and Physical Activity domains using the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS), developed by the National Institutes of Health. PROMIS measures use a T-score metric in which 50 is the mean of a relevant reference population and 10 is the standard deviation (SD) of that population. Higher scores will mean more Fatigue and more Physical Activity respectively. |
