Iron infusions may boost gut healing in celiac disease

NCT ID NCT05114278

First seen Jul 09, 2026 · Last updated Jul 10, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This trial investigates whether adding intravenous iron to standard oral iron supplements can help heal intestinal damage in people with celiac disease who have iron deficiency and gut atrophy. Participants receive either intravenous iron infusions plus oral iron, or oral iron alone. The goal is to see if the IV approach leads to full recovery of the intestinal lining.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Ferinject (intravenous iron) plus oral iron
What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that intravenous iron helps heal intestinal damage faster in celiac disease patients who don't absorb iron well from pills alone.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only one participant enrolled, so results may not apply broadly. Intravenous iron carries risks like allergic reactions or infection.
