/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 ProHance 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 ProHance 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

Gadoteridol is an MRI contrast agent used for contrast enhancement of the brain, spine and surrounding tissues resulting in improved visualization (compared with unenhanced MRI) of lesions with abnormal vascularity or those thought to cause a disruption of the normal blood brain barrier. Gadoteridol can also be used for whole body contrast enhanced MRI including the head, neck, liver, breast, musculoskeletal system and soft tissue pathologies.

... The physicochemical properties of gadoteridol, a macrocyclic nonionic gadolinium complex, were studied together with its pharmacokinetics and biodistribution in rats and dogs. ... Studies in rats were conducted after single iv injections at 0.1 or 0.35 mmol/kg using (153)Gd-labeled gadoteridol or with seven daily doses of 0.1 mmol/kg to examine the levels of residual gadolinium in organs. Nonradioactive biodistribution and excretion studies were performed in dogs following injection at 0.1 mmol/kg. ... After injection, the dose was rapidly cleared from rat blood and excreted such that more than 90% of the dose appeared in the urine within 4 hr of injection. At 7 and 14 days postinjection, only extremely low levels of gadolinium were observed in liver and bone; these levels were two to eight times lower than the levels reported after the injection of gadopentetate dimeglumine. ... Differences observed in the long-term retention of gadolinium between gadoteridol and gadopentetate dimeglumine were consistent with the reported greater in vivo resistance to transmetallation of gadolinium macrocycles compared with the linear gadolinium chelate molecules.

... To assess the safety and pharmacokinetics of gadoteridol injection (0.5 M) ... 18 healthy male volunteers ... were assigned to one of six dosing groups: 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.25, and 0.3 mmol/kg gadoteridol (0.5 M), in an ascending dose study. Physical examination, vital signs, electrocardiogram, clinical laboratory tests, and serum and urine samples were obtained at selected time points before and after administration of gadoteridol. ... No significant changes in vital signs, physical examination, clinical laboratory values, or electrocardiogram, that were believed ... to be related to the administration of the contrast agent, were observed. A single adverse event (transient hive) believed to be related to contrast agent administration was observed in one volunteer. Pharmacokinetic data show that the elimination half-life and the distribution half-life were independent of the dose used. The mean distribution half-life was 0.20 +/- 0.04 hours, the mean elimination half-life was 1.57 +/- 0.08 hours, and greater than 94% of the drug was excreted in the urine in 24 hours.

Gadoteridol does not cross the intact blood-brain barrier and, therefore, does not accumulate in normal brain or in lesions that have a normal blood-brain barrer, e.g., cysts, mature post-operative scars, etc. However, disruption of the blood-brain barrer or abnormal vascularity allows accumulation of gadoteridol in lesions such as neoplasms, abscesses, and subacute infarcts. The pharmacokinetics of ProHance in various lesions is not known.

Based on the behavior of protons when placed in a strong magnetic field, which is interpreted and transformed into images by magnetic resonance (MR) instruments. Paramagnetic agents have unpaired electrons that generate a magnetic field about 700 times larger than the proton's field, thus disturbing the proton's local magnetic field. When the local magnetic field around a proton is disturbed its relaxation process is altered. MR images are based on proton density and proton relaxation dynamics. MR instruments can record two different relaxation processes, the T1 (spin-lattice or longitudinal relaxation time) and T2 (spin-spin or transverse relaxation time). In MRI, visualization of normal and pathological brain tissue depends in part on variations in the radiofrequency signal intensity that occur with changes in proton density, alteration of the T1, and variation in T2. When placed in a magnetic field, gadoteridol shortens the T1 relaxation time in tissues where it accumulates. Gadoteridol does not cross the intact blood-brain barrier; therefore, it does not accumulate in normal brain tissue or in central nervous system (CNS) lesions that have not caused an abnormal blood-brain barrier (e.g., cysts, mature post-operative scars). Abnormal vascularity or disruption of the blood-brain barrier allows accumulation of gadoteridol in lesions such as neoplasms, abscesses, and subacute infarcts.
