P03277 Dose Finding Study in Central Nervous System (CNS) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

Blood Brain Barrier Defect Clinical Trial

Official title: P03277 Dose Finding Study in Central Nervous System (CNS) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study was to determine a safe and effective dose of a new gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA) P03277 based on the Contrast to Noise Ratio (CNR) when comparing with gadobenate dimeglumine (MultiHance®) at 0.1 mmol/kg body weight (BW). Contrast to Noise Ratio (CNR), a well-known quantitative parameter directly related to contrast medium/GBCA efficacy, was chosen as the primary endpoint in order to have a precise determination of P03277 clinical dose. This was a multi-center, international, prospective, double-blind, randomized, controlled, parallel dose groups, cross-over with comparator study in male and female subjects presenting with known or highly suspected focal areas of disruption of the Blood Brain Barrier including at least one expected enhancing lesion of minimum 5 mm, who were scheduled to undergo a routine contrast-enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of Central Nervous System.

Clinical Trial Description

Two subsets of subjects were included in the study: - The subset 1 included the first randomized subject of each study center. Subjects were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive 0.05 or 0.1 mmol/kg BW of P03277 and 0.1 mmol/kg BW of gadobenate dimeglumine. - Subset 2 was composed of all subjects (except the first one of each study center) selected by the study center. Subjects were randomly assigned in a 1:1:1:1 ratio to receive 0.025, 0.05, 0.1 or 0.2 mmol/kg BW of P03277 and 0.1 mmol/kg BW of gadobenate dimeglumine. During the course of the study, two MRIs were obtained from each subject: one unenhanced and P03277-enhanced MRI; and one unenhanced and gadobenate dimeglumine-enhanced MRI. MRI images were evaluated off-site by 3 independent blinded readers for the primary endpoint (CNR). ;
