Achieving treatment goals of reducing or maintaining body iron burden with deferasirox in patients with β-thalassaemia: results from the ESCALATOR study
This analysis evaluated the effects of deferasirox on liver iron concentration in moderate and heavily iron-overloaded patients with β-thalassaemia from the ESCALATOR trial (n = 231). Mean liver iron concentrations (LIC) decreased significantly from 21.1 ± 8.2 to 14.2 ± 12.1 mg Fe/g dry weight (dw)...
