Coordination chemistry and biology of chelators for the treatment of iron overload disorders [PDF]
Treatment of the medical condition generally referred to as iron overload through the delivery of chelators has recently received a major boost. In 2005 Novartis gained FDA approval for the drug deferasirox, which may be taken orally.

A speciation study on the perturbing effects of iron chelators on the homeostasis of essential metal ions [PDF]
A number of reports have appeared in literature calling attention to the depletion of essential metal ions during chelation therapy on beta-thalassaemia patients. We present a speciation study to determine how the iron chelators used in therapy interfere

Deferasirox, an oral chelator in the treatment of iron overload
BACKGROUND Deferasirox is a once-daily oral iron chelator developed for treating iron overload complicating long-term transfusion therapy in patients with diseases such as beta-thalassemia and myelodysplastic syndromes. Iron overload can damage the liver,
