About this study

Official title: The Prevalence and Severity of Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis in Patients Whom Underwent Imaging With Gadollinium(MRI/MRA) in University Hospital of Tehran Heart Center in 2003-2008

Recently there is increasing reports of NEPHROGENIIC SYSTEMIC FIBROSIS(NSF) in patients with severe renal failure mainly in patients under dialysis in whom gadollinum is being used.

The investigators will evaluate the prevalence and severity of NSF in patients with different degree of renal failure whom underwent imaging with Gadolinum.

Read the detailed description

NSF is a progressive and potentially fatal disease reported mainly in End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients in whom Gadolinume been used as contrast agent. Skin is the main organ of involvement but other vital organs like myocard,lung,liver may also be involved.Gadollinum is known as a safe contrast in renal disease patients in comparison with conventional nephrotoxic radiocontrast agents,but with increasing reports of NSF with Gadollinum the use of this agent in renal failure patients is under question.

We will retrospectively evaluate the occurrence of this complication in all patients with different degree of renal failure whom underwent MRA or MRI with Gadollinum in Tehran Heart Center since 2003 till now and we will describe the severity and distribution pattern of lesions and the relation of this complication to the severity of renal failure.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing gadollinum in people with Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis and Renal Failure, run by Imam Khomeini Hospital at 1 site in Iran.

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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jun 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Iran. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

occurrence of fibrosis (time frame: after 2 month of exposure with gadollinum). 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 22 Jun 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 2 Nov 2026.
