Remember the trial I inquired about?

It’s a trial for Rusfertide. Here is a little of what they sent me. They called me today too. Its done in Southern Florida and there would be several visits. It is supposed to lower HCT so less phlebotomies are needed. (I think.) To keep iron up- I guess. Ep Guy? Hunter? What can you tell me?

The several visits would be difficult for me. They did say that they might be able to reimburse for travel though.

This is the phase 3 study for Rusfertide.

In the US it's avail in the areas listed below. Here is the site of the study, which they could have offered their link to look more trustworthy: (note the same 250 patients to be enrolled in the study and the text you got)

clinicaltrials.gov/show/NCT...

Rufs is an improvement over PHLB since it is supposed to control iron better, here is phase 2 results:

But if one needs other blood counts controlled, (PLT, WBC) other therapies need to be added. One use for Rusf I look fwd to is adding to INF for when HCT is not responding well enough while WBC is going too low.

It's good news to see the phase 3 for real so we may get approved access in the reasonable future.
