About this study

Official title: Intra-individual Open-label Multicenter Comparison Study of Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA) With the Blood Pool Contrast Agent Vasovist® and a Conventional Extracellular Contrast Agent With Intra-arterial Digital Subtraction Angiography (i.a. DSA) in Patients With Peripheral Artery Disease

The particular aim of this study is the comparison of the diagnostic results of MRA images upon application of Vasovist (gadofosveset), a contrast agent not yet available on the market, with the MRA images upon application of a conventional extracellular contrast agent. A catheter angiography, which will be performed as a routine diagnostic procedure for vascular diseases, will serve as an evaluation standard.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Vasovist (BAY86-5283, MS-325)Drug

    All patients receive a single IV bolus injection of Vasovist at a dose of 0,03 mmol/kg BW at a flowrate of 0,5 mL/sec, followed by a saline flush of at least 30 mL

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnostic potential of Vasovist enhanced MRA

    Measured: Imaging after baseline visit, before and after Vasovist injection

    Measured: After imaging

  2. Quantitative assessment of vessel enhancement

    Measured: After imaging

  3. Qualitative assessment of disease

    Measured: After imaging

  4. Qualitative assessment of plaque morphology

    Measured: After imaging

  5. Evaluation of quality of vascular anatomy and delineation of vessel wall, venous enhancement and diagnostic potential of venous enhancement

    Measured: After imaging

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Vasovist (BAY86-5283, MS-325) in people with Peripheral Vascular Diseases, run by Bayer at 26 sites in 6 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 3 inclusion and 6 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Apr 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 26 sites in Germany, Argentina, Austria, Brazil, Mexico and 1 more country. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Diagnostic potential of Vasovist enhanced MRA (time frame: Imaging after baseline visit, before and after Vasovist injection). 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 23 Apr 2010.
