ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryEfficacy of Combined Treatment With Deferasirox and Deferoxamine Over 12 Months12 months
Change in liver iron concentration from baseline to 12 months with the use of combined chelation therapy. The change was calculated as the liver iron concentration at 12 months minus the value at baseline.
PrimaryChange in Serum Creatinine During 12 Months Combined Chelation Therapy12 monthsComparison of average serum creatinine over 12 months of combined chelation therapy compared with baseline serum creatinine.
