Details and patient eligibility

About

The safety, tolerability, effects on liver iron concentration and pharmacokinetics of ICL670 is studied in sickle cell disease patients with transfusional hemosiderosis.

Full description

The treatment period started once the patient completed the core study and signed informed consent. It is continued for up to 4 years. Safety parameters were assessed every 4 weeks. Eye and Ear examinations were performed on a yearly basis. To further investigate the extent of iron overload, serum ferritin, iron, and transferrin were monitored every four weeks. The Program Safety Board monitored the safety of ICL670 during the study to evaluate and categorize any serious case reported in association with ICL670.

Additional inclusion criteria for pediatric patients The definition of the term 'pediatric' for enrollment and study conduct was in accordance with local law.

Written informed consent was obtained from their legal guardian on the patient's behalf in accordance with national legislation. If capable, all patients had to also personally sign their written informed consent.

Exclusion criteria

Patients who met the following criteria were to be excluded:

  • History of non-compliance to medical regimens and patients who are considered potentially unreliable and/or not cooperative
  • Serum creatinine above the age-appropriate upper limit of normal within one week prior to entry
  • Patients with ALT ≥ 500 U/L within one week prior to entry
  • Evidence of chelation-related cataracts or hearing loss within 4 weeks prior to baseline
  • Pregnancy (as indicated by serum β-HCG pregnancy test for all female patients with the potential to become pregnant) and patients who are breastfeeding
  • Patients treated with systemic investigational drug within 4 weeks prior to or with topical investigational drug within 7 days prior to the baseline visit
