A study was conducted to compare gadobenate dimeglumine (Multihance) with other commercially available MRI contrast agents for the detection of intracranial metastases ... A retrospective assessment was performed on MR images from 22 patients enrolled in a prior phase II clinical trial of gadobenate dimeglumine. Each patient underwent two examinations: a first examination with one of three "comparator" agents (gadopentetate dimeglumine, gadodiamide, and gadoterate meglumine) at a dosage of either 0.1 or 0.2 mmol/kg, and then a similar examination with gadobenate dimeglumine at equal dosage. All images were evaluated randomly for lesion number and location in unpaired and then paired fashion by two independent, masked neuroradiologists. A third assessor performed quantitative assessments on the available complete sets of digitally recorded images (10 cases) ... The findings for the comparator agents were pooled. Sensitivity for lesion detection with gadobenate dimeglumine (93%-100%) was markedly superior to that of comparator-enhanced examinations (65%-73%). The increase of lesion-to-brain contrast of the main lesion was consistently greater with gadobenate dimeglumine than with comparator agents relative to unenhanced contrast (+43% vs. +27%) ... Gadobenate dimeglumine proved to be a more efficacious agent than comparator contrast agents for the detection of intracranial metastatic lesions: superior efficacy was noted by both reviewers for total lesion count as well as for sensitivity and positive predictive value for lesion detection. The higher relaxivity of gadobenate dimeglumine might explain the superior sensitivity of gadobenate dimeglumine-enhanced MRI for the detection of central nervous system metastases.

/BOXED WARNING/ WARNING: NEPHROGENIC SYSTEMIC FIBROSIS. Gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) increase the risk for nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) among patients with impaired elimination of the drugs. Avoid use of GBCAs in these patients unless the diagnostic information is essential and not available with non-contrasted MRI or other modalities. NSF may result in fatal or debilitating systemic fibrosis affecting the skin, muscle and internal organs. The risk for NSF appears highest among patients with: chronic, severe kidney disease (GFR <30 mL/min/1.73 sq m), or acute kidney injury. Screen patients for acute kidney injury and other conditions that may reduce renal function. For patients at risk for chronically reduced renal function (e.g. age > 60 years, hypertension or diabetes), estimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) through laboratory testing. For patients at highest risk for NSF, do not exceed the recommended MultiHance dose and allow a sufficient period of time for elimination of the drug from the body prior to re-administration.

Gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) increase the risk for nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) among patients with impaired elimination of the drugs. Avoid use of GBCAs among these patients unless the diagnostic information is essential and not available with non-contrast enhanced MRI or other modalities. The GBCA-associated NSF risk appears highest for patients with chronic, severe kidney disease (GFR <30 mL/min/1.73 sq m) as well as patients with acute kidney injury. The risk appears lower for patients with chronic, moderate kidney disease (GFR 30-59 mL/min/1.73 sq m) and little, if any, for patients with chronic, mild kidney disease (GFR 60-89 mL/min/1.73 sq m). NSF may result in fatal or debilitating fibrosis affecting the skin, muscle and internal organs. ... Screen patients for acute kidney injury and other conditions that may reduce renal function. Features of acute kidney injury consist of rapid (over hours to days) and usually reversible decrease in kidney function, commonly in the setting of surgery, severe infection, injury or drug-induced kidney toxicity. Serum creatinine levels and estimated GFR may not reliably assess renal function in the setting of acute kidney injury. For patients at risk for chronically reduced renal function (e.g., age > 60 years, diabetes mellitus or chronic hypertension), estimate the GFR through laboratory testing. Among the factors that may increase the risk for NSF are repeated or higher than recommended doses of a GBCA and the degree of renal impairment at the time of exposure. Record the specific GBCA and the dose administered to a patient. For patients at highest risk for NSF, do not exceed the recommended MultiHance dose and allow a sufficient period of time for elimination of the drug prior to re-administration. For patients receiving hemodialysis, physicians may consider the prompt initiation of hemodialysis following the administration of a GBCA in order to enhance the contrast agent's elimination. The usefulness of hemodialysis in the prevention of NSF is unknown

Anaphylactic and anaphylactoid reactions have been reported, involving cardiovascular, respiratory, and/or cutaneous manifestations. Some patients experienced circulatory collapse and died. In most cases, initial symptoms occurred within minutes of MultiHance administration and resolved with prompt emergency treatment. Prior to MultiHance administration, ensure the availability of personnel trained and medications to treat hypersensitivity reactions. If such a reaction occurs stop MultiHance and immediately begin appropriate therapy. Additionally, consider the risk for hypersensitivity reactions, especially in patients with a history of hypersensitivity reactions or a history of asthma or other allergic disorders. Observe patients for signs and symptoms of a hypersensitivity reaction during and for up to 2 hours after MultiHance administration.

Gadobenate ion has a rapid distribution half-life (reported as mean + or - SD) of 0.084 + or - 0.012 to 0.605 + or - 0.072 hours. Volume of distribution of the central compartment ranged from 0.074:: 0.017 to 0.158 :: 0.038 L/kg, and estimates of volume of distribution by area ranged from 0.170+ or - 0.016 to 0.282+ or - 0.079 L/kg. These latter estimates are approximately equivalent to the average volume of extracellular body water in man. In vitro studies showed no appreciable binding of gadobenate ion to human serum proteins. /Gadobenate ion/

... The pharmacokinetics were evaluated in rats, rabbits, dogs and monkeys after iv injections of non-labelled gadobenate dimeglumine and, for biodistribution studies, (153)-Gd-labelled gadobenate dimeglumine. Assays were performed by high performance liquid chromatography, X-ray fluorescence and gamma spectrometry. The binding of gadobenate ion to animal and human serum albumin was studied by equilibrium dialysis. ... After iv injection gadobenate dimeglumine distributes into plasma and extracellular fluid as well as into the intrahepatocytic space. Gadobenate ion is cleared from plasma by renal and biliary excretion. It does not accumulate in specific tissues, except temporarily in tissues related to its elimination. Gadobenate ion is not metabolized. Its binding to plasma proteins is too weak to be detected by equilibrium dialysis. ...

Gadobenate ion is eliminated predominately via the kidneys, with 78% to 96% of an administered dose recovered in the urine. Total plasma clearance and renal clearance estimates of gadobenate ion were similar, ranging from 0.093 + or - 0.010 to 0.133 + o r- 0.270 L/hr/kg and 0.082+ or - 0.007 to 0.104 + or - 0.039 L/hr/kg, respectively. The clearance is similar to that of substances that are subject to glomerular filtration. The mean elimination half-life ranged from 1.17+ or - 0.26 to 2.02 + or - 0.60 hours. A small percentage ofthe administered dose (0.6% to 4%) is eliminated via the biliary route and recovered in feces.
