About this study

Official title: Randomized, Blinded, Placebo-controlled Crossover Study Assessing Association Between Gadolinium-based Contrast Agent Administration and Transient Dyspnea/Arterial Phase Motion Artifact

The purpose of this study is to evaluate changes in volunteer breath-holding capacity in response to gadoxetate disodium (Eovist) administration, compared with saline, and gadoterate dimeglumine (Dotarem). Healthy volunteers will be recruited from three study sites. These subjects will be given three, blinded, randomized injections while undergoing an MRI of their liver and holding their breath. During the scan, the subjects' oxygen saturation and heart rate will be closely monitored. Following the scan, the subjects will complete a questionnaire regarding the breath hold.

Being tested
gadoxetate disodium, gadoterate dimeglumine, Saline

What is being measured

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

  1. Subject Breath Hold Capacity, as Measured by Number of Seconds a Subject Can Hold His/Her Breath

    Measured: following contrast administration, up to 5 minutes

  2. Subject-reported Dyspnea, as Measured by Questionnaire Responses

    After each breath-hold, the MRI technologist asked the volunteer through the scanner microphone the following two questions, with responses based on a 5-point scale: A) How difficult was it to hold your breath? (1-Not at all; 5-Very difficult); B) Do you feel short of breath now? (1-Not at all; 5-Very short of breath). Responses were recorded for each breath-hold.

    Measured: following contrast administration, up to 5 minutes

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. O2 Saturation Following Contrast Administration

    Measured: following contrast administration, up to 5 minutes

  2. Heart Rate Following Contrast Injection

    Heart rate following contrast injection

    Measured: following contrast administration, up to 5 minutes

  3. Percentage of Participants With Transient Severe Motion (TSM) Based on Presence of Motion Artifacts at Arterial Phase Imaging

    Arterial-phase breath-holding duration and motion artifacts after each agent were compared using the Mann-Whitney-U test and the McNemar test.

    Measured: following contrast administration, up to 5 minutes

  4. Severity of Motion Artifacts at Arterial Phase Imaging, Measured on a 1-5 Scale

    1. no motion artifact
    2. minimal motion artifact
    3. moderate motion artifact
    4. severe motion artifact
    5. extensive motion artifact

    Measured: following contrast administration, up to 5 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing gadoxetate disodium, gadoterate dimeglumine and Saline in people with Transient Severe Arterial Phase Motion, run by Duke University at 1 site in United States.

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 5 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 14 Apr 2017. 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 United States. 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 14 Apr 2017). 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?

Subject Breath Hold Capacity, as Measured by Number of Seconds a Subject Can Hold His/Her Breath (time frame: following contrast administration, up to 5 minutes). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 14 Apr 2017.
