HBED: A Potential Alternative to Deferoxamine for Iron-Chelating Therapy by Raymond J. Bergeron, Jan Wiegand, and Gary M. Brittenham Blood Volume 91(4): February 15, 1998 ©1998 by American Society of Hematology

2 Structures of the iron chelators chosen for evaluation: deferoxamine B (DFO) andN,N′-bis(2-hydroxybenzyl)ethylenediamine-N,N′-diacetic acid dihydrochloride dihydrate (HBED).

3 Time course of mean biliary iron excretion in normal rats after administration of DFO by SC injection and after administration of HBED by gavage or by SC injection. Time course of mean biliary iron excretion in normal rats after administration of DFO by SC injection and after administration of HBED by gavage or by SC injection. Both chelators were given at a dose of 150 μmol/kg body weight. The peak amounts of iron excreted with SC HBED (*) were more than twofold greater than the peak iron excretion after either SC DFO or HBED given by gavage (P < .05 at 3 hours and P < .01 at 6 hours).

4 Mean net iron excretion in normal rats after administration of DFO by SC injection and after administration of HBED by gavage or by SC injection. Mean net iron excretion in normal rats after administration of DFO by SC injection and after administration of HBED by gavage or by SC injection. Excretion is shown as μg Fe/kg body weight on the scale of the left vertical axis and as efficiency of chelation (net iron excretion/total iron-binding capacity of chelator administered, expressed as a percent) on the right vertical axis. Both chelators were given at a dose of 150 μmol/kg body weight. Raymond J. Bergeron et al. Blood 1998;91: ©1998 by American Society of Hematology

5 Mean net iron excretion in C apella monkeys with iron overload (see text) after administration of DFO by SC injection and of HBED by SC injection. Mean net iron excretion in C apella monkeys with iron overload (see text) after administration of DFO by SC injection and of HBED by SC injection. Excretion is shown as μg Fe/kg body weight on the scale of the left vertical axis and as efficiency of chelation (net iron excretion/total iron-binding capacity of chelator administered, expressed as a percent) on the right vertical axis. Both chelators were given at a dose of 150 μmol/kg body weight. For convenience, the result of our previously published study31of the oral administration of HBED in phosphate buffer to C apella monkeys with a similar magnitude of iron overload is also shown; this previous result is indicated by an asterisk.
