Post Marketing Surveillance Study for Evaluation of Efficacy and Safety of Dotarem in Magnetic Resonance Mammography

March 22, 2017 updated by: Guerbet

Evaluation of Efficacy and Safety of Dotarem in Magnetic Resonance Mammography

Guerbet conducted a non-interventional post-marketing surveillance study on its Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) contrast agent Dotarem (gadoteric acid/gadoterate meglumine) from September 2011 to December 2013. The aim of this study, which was conducted in accordance with section 67, paragraph 6 of the German drug regulation, Arzneimittelgesetz, was to generate additional data on the diagnostic efficacy, reliability and safety of Dotarem in Magnetic Resonance (MR) mammography.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

Diagnostic efficacy was assessed on the basis of image quality (5-stage scale from "excellent" to "very poor"), diagnosis and cytology test result. Safety was assessed on the basis of the frequency and seriousness of adverse drug reactions observed following the injection of Dotarem.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Image Quality
Time Frame: During MRI procedure
Image quality was evaluated on a 5-point scale: "excellent"; "good"; "moderate"; "poor" and "very poor".
During MRI procedure
Ability to Make a Diagnosis
Time Frame: During MRI procedure
Ability to make a diagnosis was evaluated by answering "yes" or "no" to the question "Did the examination permit a diagnosis ?"
During MRI procedure
Diagnostic Results (Percentage of Patients Per Diagnosis)
Time Frame: During MRI procedure
Diagnoses were made with MR images. Percentage of patients per diagnosis was calculated. Multiple diagnoses were possible for the same patient.
During MRI procedure
Cytology Test Results (Percentage of Patients Per Cytology Test Result)
Time Frame: During MRI procedure
Diagnoses were made according to the cytology test results. Percentage of patients per cytology test result was calculated. Multiple diagnoses were possible for the same patient.
During MRI procedure
Frequency of Adverse Drug Reactions
Time Frame: From the beginning of the MR mammography procedure to 30-60 min after
The frequency of adverse drug reactions (serious and non-serious) that occurred following injection of Dotarem was recorded. Adverse drug reactions are adverse events related to the product administered.
From the beginning of the MR mammography procedure to 30-60 min after
