About this study
Official title: A Single-blind, Intra-individual, Crossover, Multicenter Study of the Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of Gadavist (1.0 M) in Comparison With Magnevist (0.5 M) as Contrast Agent in the Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA) in Chinese Patients
The purpose of this study is to determine if the contrast agent is effective and safe in the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of vascular diseases in patients of Chinese origin.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Gadobutrol (Gadavist, Gadovist, BAY86-4875)Drug
Participant received a single intravenous injection with Gadobutrol (1.0 M) at a volume of 0.2 mL/kg BW (dose = 0.2 mmol/kg BW) or up to 0.3 mL/kg BW when 3 Fields of View were imaged (up to dose = 0.3 mmol/kg BW)
Gadopentate dimeglumine (Magnevist, BAY86-4882)Drug
Participant received a single intravenous injection with Gadopentate (0.5 M) at a volume of 0.4 mL/kg BW (dose = 0.2 mmol/kg BW) or up to 0.6 mL/kg BW when 3 Fields of View were imaged (up to dose = 0.3 mmol/kg BW)
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Gadobutrol, then Gadopentate dimeglumine | Experimental | Period 1: Participant received Gadobutrol 1.0 M (iv: intravenous injection), at a dose of 0.2 mL/kg BW, up to 0.3 mL/kg BW if 3 Fields of View (FOVs) to be imaged; Period 2: Participant received Gadopentate 0.5 M (iv), at a dose of 0.4 mL/kg BW, up to 0.6 mL/kg BW if 3 FOVs to be imaged Receives: Drug: Gadobutrol (Gadavist, Gadovist, BAY86-4875); Drug: Gadopentate dimeglumine (Magnevist, BAY86-4882) |
| Gadopentate, dimeglumine then Gadobutrol | Experimental | Period 1: Participant received Gadopentate 0.5 M (iv), at a dose of 0.4 mL/kg BW, up to 0.6 mL/kg BW if 3 FOVs to be imaged; Period 2: Participant received Gadobutrol 1.0 M (iv: intravenous injection), at a dose of 0.2 mL/kg BW, up to 0.3 mL/kg BW if 3 Fields of View (FOVs) to be imaged Receives: Drug: Gadobutrol (Gadavist, Gadovist, BAY86-4875); Drug: Gadopentate dimeglumine (Magnevist, BAY86-4882) |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of Vessel Segments Visualized With Diagnostic Quality
Each arterial segment visualized in magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) enhanced by Gadavist and Magnevist was characterized by the on-site investigators and by three independent blinded readers (reader 1, 2 and 3) according to a five-point scale (none/not assessable, poor, moderate, good, excellent), which takes into consideration intravascular contrast quality as well as vessel border delineation. The number of vessel segments with adequate diagnostic quality, i.e. good or excellent scores, was determined for each MRA image.
Measured: 20-30 seconds after injection
Secondary outcomes (8)
Change in Diagnostic Confidence From Pre- to Post-contrast MRA by Investigator
The on-site investigators assessed the change in diagnostic confidence in the assessment of MRA scans before and after injection with Gadavist and Magnevist for each participant on a three-point scale as improved, unchanged or worsened.
Measured: immediately before and 20-30 seconds after injection (precontrast and postcontrast)
Change in Diagnostic Confidence From Pre- to Post-contrast MRA by Blinded Reader 1
Independent blinded reader 1 assessed the change in diagnostic confidence in the assessment of MRA scans before and after injection with Gadavist and Magnevist for each participant on a three-point scale as improved, unchanged or worsened.
Measured: immediately before and 20-30 seconds after injection (precontrast and postcontrast)
Change in Diagnostic Confidence From Pre- to Post-contrast MRA by Blinded Reader 2
Independent blinded reader 2 assessed the change in diagnostic confidence in the assessment of MRA scans before and after injection with Gadavist and Magnevist for each participant on a three-point scale as improved, unchanged or worsened.
Measured: immediately before and 20-30 seconds after injection (precontrast and postcontrast)
Change in Diagnostic Confidence From Pre- to Post-contrast MRA by Blinded Reader 3
Independent blinded reader 3 assessed the change in diagnostic confidence in the assessment of MRA scans before and after injection with Gadavist and Magnevist for each participant on a three-point scale as improved, unchanged or worsened.
Measured: immediately before and 20-30 seconds after injection (precontrast and postcontrast)
MRA Diagnosis by Investigators
The MRA diagnosis describes the pathology with regard to the extent of a stenosis, i.e., normal (no relevant disease), advanced arteriosclerosis but stenosis <= 50% (exemption: internal carotid artery: stenosis <= 70%), advanced arteriosclerosis, stenosis >50% but <99% (stenosis 50-99%) (exemption: internal carotid artery >70%), occlusion, and not assessable.
Measured: 20-30 seconds after injection
MRA Diagnosis by Blinded Reader 1
