Hepcidin Response to Iron Therapy in Patients with Non-Dialysis Dependent CKD: An Analysis of the FIND-CKD Trial.

ABSTRACT: Hepcidin is the key regulator of iron homeostasis but data are limited regarding its temporal response to iron therapy, and response to intravenous versus oral iron. In the 56-week, open-label, multicenter, prospective, randomized FIND-CKD study, 626 anemic patients with non-dialysis dependent chronic kidney disease (ND-CKD) and iron deficiency not receiving an erythropoiesis stimulating agent were randomized (1:1:2) to intravenous ferric carboxymaltose (FCM), targeting higher (400-600?g/L) or lower (100-200?g/L) ferritin, or to oral iron. Serum hepcidin levels were measured centrally in a subset of 61 patients. Mean (SD) baseline hepcidin level was 4.0(3.5), 7.3(6.4) and 6.5(5.6) ng/mL in the high ferritin FCM (n = 17), low ferritin FCM (n = 16) and oral iron group (n = 28). The mean (SD) endpoint value (i.e. the last post-baseline value) was 26.0(9.1),15.7(7.7) and 16.3(11.0) ng/mL, respectively. The increase in hepcidin from baseline was significantly smaller with low ferritin FCM or oral iron vs high ferritin FCM at all time points up to week 52. Significant correlations were found between absolute hepcidin and ferritin values (r = 0.65, p<0.001) and between final post-baseline increases in both parameters (r = 0.70, p<0.001). The increase in hepcidin levels over the 12-month study generally mirrored the cumulative iron dose in each group. Hepcidin and transferrin saturation (TSAT) absolute values showed no correlation, although there was an association between final post-baseline increases (r = 0.42, p<0.001). Absolute values (r = 0.36, p = 0.004) and final post-baseline increases of hepcidin and hemoglobin (p = 0.30, p = 0.030) correlated weakly. Baseline hepcidin levels were not predictive of a hematopoietic response to iron therapy. In conclusion, hepcidin levels rose in response to either intravenous or oral iron therapy, but the speed and extent of the rise was greatest with intravenous iron targeting a higher ferritin level. However neither the baseline level nor the change in hepcidin was able to predict response to therapy in this cohort.

Project description:BackgroundIntravenous iron is commonly used in patients with non-dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (CKD). Modern intravenous iron compounds (e.g. ferric derisomaltose (FDI), ferric carboxymaltose (FCM)) are increasingly utilized with similar efficacy. A differential effect in terms of hypophosphatemia has been noted following administration of FCM, which may be related to fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). This study was designed to examine the comparative effects of FDI and FCM on FGF23, phosphate and other markers of bone turnover.MethodsThe single-center double-blind randomized controlled trial "Iron and Phosphaturia - ExplorIRON-CKD" primarily assessed the effects of FCM and FDI on intact FGF23 and phosphate, whilst also studying the impact on vitamin D, parathyroid hormone and phosphaturia. Bone markers including alkaline phosphatase, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide and carboxy-terminal collagen cross-linked telopeptide were monitored. Non-dialysis-dependent CKD patients (stage 3a-5) with iron deficiency with/without anemia (serum ferritin < 200 µg/L or transferrin saturation = 20% and serum ferritin 200-299 µg/L) were randomized to receive FDI or FCM in a 1:1 ratio. At baseline 1000 mg of intravenous iron was administered followed by 500-1000 mg at 1 month to achieve replenishment. Measurements were performed at baseline, 1-2 days following iron administration, 2 weeks, 1 month (second iron administration), 1-2 days following second administration, 2 months and 3 months following initial infusion.ResultsTwenty-six patients participated in the trial; 14 randomized to FDI and 12 to FCM. Intact FGF23 increased following administration of iron, and the increase was significantly higher with FCM compared to FDI (Baseline to 1-2 days following 1st administration: FDI: 3.0 (IQR: - 15.1 - 13.8) % vs. FCM: 146.1 (IQR: 108.1-203.1) %; p < 0.001 and Baseline to 1-2 days following 2nd administration: FDI: 3.2 (IQR: - 3.5 - 25.4) % vs. FCM: 235.1 (138.5-434.6) %; p = 0.001). Phosphate levels decreased in the FCM group, causing a significant difference versus FDI 2 weeks following administration of the first dose. A significantly greater decrease in 1,25 (OH)2 Vitamin D was noted with FCM. Several markers of bone turnover significantly changed following administration of FCM but not FDI.ConclusionsThe study suggests a differential effect on FGF23 following administration of FCM compared to FDI in non-dialysis-dependent CKD patients, similar to other patient groups. This may lead to changes consistent with hypovitaminosis D and alterations in bone turnover with potential clinical consequences. Further definitive studies are required to understand these differences of intravenous iron compounds.Trial registrationEuropean Union Drug Regulating Authorities Clinical Trials Database (EudraCT) number: 2019-004370-26 ( https://www.clinicaltrialsregister.eu/ctr-search/trial/2019-004370-26/GB ) (First date of trial registration: 03/12/2019).

Project description:BackgroundChronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with a lower serologic response to vaccination compared to the general population. There is limited information regarding the serologic response to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination in the non-dialysis-dependent CKD (NDD-CKD) population, particularly after the third dose and whether this response varies by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).MethodsThe NDD-CKD (G1-G5) patients who received 3 doses of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines were recruited from renal clinics within British Columbia and Ontario, Canada. Between August 27, 2021, and November 30, 2022, blood samples were collected serially for serological testing every 3 months within a 9-month follow-up period. The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) anti-spike, anti-receptor binding domain (RBD), and anti-nucleocapsid protein (NP) levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).ResultsAmong 285 NDD-CKD patients, the median age was 67 (interquartile range [IQR], 52-77) years, 58% were men, 48% received BNT162b2 as their third dose, 22% were on immunosuppressive treatment, and COVID-19 infection by anti-NP seropositivity was observed in 37 of 285 (13%) patients. Following the third dose, anti-spike and anti-RBD levels peaked at 2 months, with geometric mean levels at 1131 and 1672 binding antibody units per milliliter (BAU/mL), respectively, and seropositivity rates above 93% and 85%, respectively, over the 9-month follow-up period. There was no association between eGFR or urine albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR) with mounting a robust antibody response or in antibody levels over time. The NDD-CKD patients on immunosuppressive treatment were less likely to mount a robust anti-spike response in univariable (odds ratio [OR] 0.43, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.20, 0.93) and multivariable (OR 0.52, 95% CI: 0.25, 1.10) analyses. An interaction between age, immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody levels, and time was observed in both unadjusted (anti-spike: P = .005; anti-RBD: P = .03) and adjusted (anti-spike: P = .004; anti-RBD: P = .03) models, with older individuals having a more pronounced decline in antibody levels over time.ConclusionMost NDD-CKD patients were seropositive for anti-spike and anti-RBD after 3 doses of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines and we did not observe any differences in the antibody response by eGFR.
