Safety of Gadovist in Renally Impaired Patients

Patients with moderate to severe renal impairment scheduled for a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan and injection with a contrast agent, Gadovist, will be asked to participate.

The administration of contrast agents that contain gadolinium such as Gadovist might increase a potential risk to develop a rare condition called nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) in patients with renal impairment. This study is to assess the potential risk to develop NSF in patients with renal impairment after the administration of Gadovist. Patients who are enrolled in this study will receive a Gadovist enhanced MRI scan which was prescribed by the referring doctor. After the MRI scan the patient will be included in a two year follow-up period to assess if signs or symptoms suggestive of NSF have appeared.

    Time frame: From the time of MRI until the end of follow-up period (24 months)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Moderate to Severe Renal Impairment in Whom no Biopsy was Obtained who Develop Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF) Based on Diagnostically Specific Clinical Information

    Time frame: From the time of MRI until the end of follow-up period (24 months)

  2. Number of Participants With Different Criteria of Diagnostic Confidence of the Investigator Based on

    Time frame: Immediately after Gadovist-enhanced MRI

  3. Number of Participants With Image Quality Sufficient for Diagnosis

    Time frame: Immediately after Gadovist-enhanced MRI

  4. Evaluation of Creactive Protein (CRP) in Participants With Moderate and Severe Renal Impairment

    Time frame: Within 48 hours prior to the Gadovist administration

  5. Evaluation of Macrophage Inflammatory Proteins (MIP) and Monocyte Chemotactic Proteins (MCP) in Participants With Moderate and Severe Renal Impairment

    Time frame: Within 48 hours prior to the Gadovist administration

  6. Evaluation of Osteopontin and Tissue Inhibitor of Metallo Proteinase 1 (TIMP1) in Participants With Moderate and Severe Renal Impairment

    Time frame: Within 48 hours prior to the Gadovist administration

  7. Number of Participants With Treatmentemergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Treatmentemergent Serious Adverse Event (TESAE), Drugrelated Treatmentemergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Drugrelated Treatmentemergent Serious Adverse Events (TESAEs)
