Background: Iron supplementation for hypoferremic anemia could potentiate bacterial growth in the cystic fibrosis (CF) lung, but clinical trials testing this hypothesis are lacking.Methods: Twenty-two adults with CF and hypoferrmic anemia participated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover trial of ferrous sulfate 325 mg daily for 6 weeks. Iron-related hematologic parameters, anthropometric data, sputum iron, Akron Pulmonary Exacerbation Score (PES); and the sputum microbiome were serially assessed. Fixed-effect models were used to describe how ferrous sulfate affected these variables.Results: Ferrous sulfate increased serum iron by 22.3% and transferrin saturation (TSAT) by 26.8% from baseline (p
