Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
To estimate and compare the incidence of NSF in the two cohorts defined. The incidence is defined for each cohort as the number of cases of NSF observed during the follow-up time period over the total number of eligible patients.
1, 3, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months
Study Arms (2)
1
patients with moderate CKD (stage 3, according to the classification of CKD by the National Kidney Foundation, i.e., with eGFR comprised between 30 and 59 mL/min/1.73m2)
2
patients with severe CKD or kidney failure (stages 4 and 5, according to the classification of CKD by the National Kidney Foundation, i.e., with eGFR stably below 30 mL/min/1.73m2).
Eligibility Criteria
A total of 1000 patients in 2 cohorts who are going to receive or have received PROHANCE during an MRI examination as part of their routine clinical management. The cohorts are defined as: COHORT 1- 600 patients of any age, with moderate CKD (stage 3, i.e., with eGFR stably comprised between 30 and 59 mL/min/1.73m2); COHORT 2- 400 patients of any age, with severe CKD or kidney failure (stages 4 and 5, i.e., with eGFR below 30 mL/min/1.73m2).
You may qualify if:
- COHORT 1
- Is going to receive or has received PROHANCE injection during an MRI examination;
- Has CKD with eGFR stably comprised between 30 and 59 mL/min/1.73m2, as calculated from a SCr value obtained from the local laboratory within 24 hours prior to the PROHANCE injection.
- Provides written informed consent and is willing to comply with protocol requirements.
- COHORT 2
- Is going to receive or has received PROHANCE injection during an MRI examination;
- Has CKD with eGFR below 30 mL/min/1.73m2, as calculated from a SCr value obtained from the local laboratory within 24 hours prior to the PROHANCE injection.
- Provides written informed consent and is willing to comply with protocol requirements.
You may not qualify if:
- COHORT 1
- Has unstable kidney function;
- Has any medical condition or other circumstances which would significantly decrease the chances of obtaining reliable data and achieving study objectives;
- Has ever been suspected of, or diagnosed with, NSF prior to the study-specific MRI;
- Is unable or unwilling to return for necessary office visits, to be examined by dermatologists or to undergo deep skin biopsy should development of NSF be suspected.
- COHORT 2
- Has any medical condition or other circumstances which would significantly decrease the chances of obtaining reliable data and achieving study objectives;
- Has ever been suspected of, or diagnosed with, NSF prior to the study-specific MRI;
- Is unable or unwilling to return for necessary office visits, to be examined by dermatologists or to undergo deep skin biopsy should development of NSF be suspected.
