Evaluation of the Risk of NSF Following MultiHance Injection in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease

NCT00600951 | Completed

• 1 other identifier: MH-136
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 366
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

The objective of this long-term study is to prospectively compare the incidence of NSF in two cohorts (Cohort 1 - patients with moderate chronic kidney disease eGFR 30 to 59 and Cohort 2 - patients with severe chronic kidney disease or kidney failure eGFR \<30).

Conditions

Renal Insufficiency

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• To estimate and compare the incidence of NSF in the two cohorts 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 chronic kidney disease (stage 3, according to the classification of chronic kidney disease by the National Kidney Foundation, i.e., with eGFR comprised between 30 and 59 mL/min/1.73m2)

2

Patients with severe chronic kidney disease or kidney failure (stages 4 and 5, according to the classification of chronic kidney disease by the National Kidney Foundation, i.e., with eGFR stably below 30 mL/min/1.73m2)

Eligibility Criteria

• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Child (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

A total of 1000 patients in 2 cohorts who are going to receive or have received MULTIHANCE 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 MULTIHANCE 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 MULTIHANCE injection.
• Provides written informed consent and is willing to comply with protocol requirements.
• COHORT 2
• Is going to receive or has received MULTIHANCE 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 MULTIHANCE 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.
