Background:

CGP 65015 is an oral iron chelator, which can mobilize iron deposits.

CGP 65015 is an oral iron chelator[1].

CGP65015 (150 μmol IBE/kg p.o. on d0) dramatically increases the urinary and faecal iron clearance, and still enhances iron elimination during the second post-treatment day in iron-overloaded marmosets[1].
