Gadofosveset Trisodium (Ablavar, Gdfos) in Distinguishing Hemangiomas and Metastases: A Prospective Trial

NCT02036008 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 150

Last updated 2014-01-14

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if Gadofosveset Trisodium (Gdfos, Ablavar) is a useful magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent in accurately diagnosing liver metastases compared to the standard agent gadobutrol (EcGd, Gadovist).

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Liver MRI with Gdfos

Participants will receive Gdfos at a dose of 10 mL of 0.25mmol/mL. This will be administered automatically using an MRI-compatible power injector, as a bolus through an intravenous line placed in an antecubital vein at a rate of 1.5 mL/s followed by 25 mL of 0.9% saline flush. Participants will be imaged using a 3.0 T MRI scanner with an 8 channel body phased array coil utilized covering the entire liver. Images of the liver will be obtained including: axial precontrast phase, axial arterial phase, axial portovenous phase, axial 5 minute delayed phase, axial 10 minute delayed phase, axial 20 minute delayed phase. This study will be performed within 4 weeks of the MRI study with EcGd.

OTHER

Liver MRI with EcGd

Participants will receive a liver MRI with EcGd as per clinical institutional protocol. Participants will receive EcGd at a dose of 0.1 mL/kg body mass up to 10 mL. This will be administered automatically using an MRI-compatible power injector, as a bolus through an intravenous line placed in an antecubital vein at a rate of 1.5 mL/s followed by 25 mL of 0.9% saline flush. Participants will be imaged using a 3.0 T MRI scanner with an 8 channel body phased array coil utilized covering the entire liver. Images of the liver will be obtained including: axial precontrast phase, axial arterial phase, axial portovenous phase, axial 5 minute delayed phase, axial 10 minute delayed phase, axial 20 minute delayed phase. Additional noncontrast images will be obtained as per institutional protocol, including diffusion weighted imaging, in/out of phase imaging, and T2 weighted imaging.
