Ferinject® reduces or delays requirement for alternative anaemia management compared with oral iron therapy

Results from the FIND-CKD study were presented at the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Kidney Week in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. The FIND-CKD results demonstrate that Ferinject® (ferric carboxymaltose) targeting a serum ferritin of 400-600 ug/L in patients with non-dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (ND-CKD) and iron deficiency anaemia significantly reduces or delays the need for alternative anaemia management (such as erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) or blood transfusion).
