A Multi-center, Randomized, Active Controlled Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Intravenous Ferric Carboxymaltose (FCM) in Patients With Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA)

The main objective of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of an
investigational intravenous (IV) iron, ferric carboxymaltose (FCM), compared to oral iron in
subjects who have iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and have shown an unsatisfactory response to
oral iron.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Male or female subjects ≥ to 18 years of age and able to give informed consent.

- Diagnosis of Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA).

- Hemoglobin (Hgb) ≤ to 11 g/dL.

- Ferritin ≤ to 100 ng/mL or ≤ 300 when Transferrin Saturation (TSAT) was ≤ 30%.

- Must demonstrate an unsatisfactory response or intolerance to oral iron.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Known hypersensitivity reaction to any component of ferric carboxymaltose or ferrous
sulfate.

- Previously randomized in a clinical study of Ferric Carboxymaltose (FCM).

- Requires dialysis for treatment of chronic kidney disease.

- No evidence of iron deficiency.

- Any non-viral infection.

- AST or ALT at screen 1, as determined by central labs, greater than 1.5 times the
upper limit of normal.

- Known positive hepatitis with evidence of active disease.

- Received an investigational drug within 30 days of screening.

- Alcohol or drug abuse within the past 6 months.

- Hemochromatosis or other iron storage disorders.

- Estimated life expectancy of less than 6 months or, for cancer patients, an ECOG
Performance Status greater than 1.

- Any other laboratory abnormality, medical condition, or psychiatric disorders which in
the opinion of the investigator would put the subject's disease management at risk or
may result in the subject being unable to comply with study requirements.

- Pregnant or sexually-active females who are of childbearing potential and who are not
willing to use an acceptable form of contraception.
