Actual Enrollment : | 120 participants |
Allocation: | Randomized |
Intervention Model: | Crossover Assignment |
Masking: | Triple (Participant, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor) |
Primary Purpose: | Diagnostic |
Official Title: | A Phase III, Comparative Multi-center Randomized Double-blind, Crossover Study of the Safety, Tolerability and Diagnostic Efficacy of Gadobenate Dimeglumine and Gadopentetate Dimeglumine in Magnetic Resonance Angiography of the Carotid, Renal/Abdominal and Peripheral Arteries |

Actual Study Completion Date : | December 2011 |

Arm | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: MultiHance contrast agent
MultiHance administered at a dose of 0.1 mmol/kg (0.2 mL/kg)
|
Drug: Gadobenate Dimeglumine
0.1 mmol/kg, single dose
Other Name: MultiHance |
Active Comparator: Magnevist
Magnevist administered at a dose of 0.2 mmol/kg
|
Drug: Gadopentetate Dimeglumine
Double dose of 0.2 mmol/kg
Other Name: Magnevist |
- Diagnostic Preference [ Time Frame: Immediately post dose ]Comparison of a single dose of MultiHance versus the double dose of Magnevist currently used for MR Angiography of the carotid, renal/abdominal/ and peripheral arteries in terms of global diagnostic perference
- Safety comparison of two diagnostic agents [ Time Frame: UP to 24 hours post dose of each contrast agent ]to compare the safety of the two investigational products in patients undergoing CE-MRA of the carotid, renal/abdominal and peripheral arteries
