Trial summary

It is well known that X-ray contrast media can affect kidney function in some patients, especially when administered intra-arterially, and patients who already suffer from reduced kidney function and diabetes mellitus may be at increased risk. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: GEHC Has Decided Not to Provide This Detail But Will Rely on the Brief Title.

It is well known that X-ray contrast media can affect kidney function in some patients, especially when administered intra-arterially, and patients who already suffer from reduced kidney function and diabetes mellitus may be at increased risk. It is widely accepted to use low-osmolar or iso-osmolar contrast media, especially in patients at risk for contrast media-induced nephropathy. However, little is known about the intravenous use of X-ray contrast media in risk patients, such as contrast-enhanced CT examinations. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the effects on kidney function of two contrast media, the iso-osmolar iodixanol and the low-osmolar iopamidol in patients at risk of kidney damage associated with the injection of contrast media. Due to the iso-osmolar feature, it is expected less influence on renal function following administration of iodixanol. A standard hydration procedure, based on available guidelines will be given to all patients to prevent negative effects on the kidneys. Serum creatinine (SCr ) concentrations will be measured before and up to 7 days after contrast media administration to evaluate the effects on renal function.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Assessment of the Incidence Rate of Contrast Medium-Induced Nephropathy (CIN) Between Iodixanol and Iopamidol in Patients With Impaired Renal Function.

    The primary endpoint was the incidence rate of CIN, defined as an intra-individual increase in serum creatinine (SCr) of greater than or equal to 44.2 µmol/L (greater than or equal to 0.5 mg/dL).

    Subjects with a pre-contrast (baseline) serum creatinine value greater than or equal to 1.5 mg/dL for males and greater than or equal to 1.3 mg/dL for females or eGFR of less than or equal to 50 mL/min/1.73m squared, and a post-contrast serum creatinine value available on days 2 or 3, administered greater than or equal to100 mL or greater than or equal to 1.5 mL/kg bodyweight IMP, without presence of any major protocol violations, and without evidence of other causes inducing acute renal dysfunction.

    Measured: From baseline up to 3 days post contrast administration.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Assessment of Overall Image Quality Between Iodixanol and Iopamidol in Patients Undergoing Contrast-enhanced Multi-detector-row Helical Computed Tomography (MDCT) Examination.

    Overall Image Quality rated as "Excellent, Good, Sufficient or Insufficient Poor" by radiologists blinded to the contrast administration.

    Measured: Within 2, 3 and 7 days post contrast administration.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Iodixanol 320-Arm 1 and Iopamidol 300-Arm 2 in people with Renal Insufficiency and Diabetes Mellitus, run by GE Healthcare at 2 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Oct 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States, United Kingdom. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Oct 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Assessment of the Incidence Rate of Contrast Medium-Induced Nephropathy (CIN) Between Iodixanol and Iopamidol in Patients With Impaired Renal Function. (time frame: From baseline up to 3 days post contrast administration.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Oct 2014.
