Results of Nonclinical Research
Gd release observed in human serum in vitro was highest from linear non-ionic GBCAs, lower from linear ionic GBCAs, and lowest from macrocyclic GBCAs.
Gd retention observed in rat skin was higher after administration of linear non-ionic GBCAs than after linear ionic GBCAs, and lowest after macrocyclic GBCA administration.
Only non-ionic linear GBCAs induced NSF-like skin lesions in some study rats.
Caution should be exercised when extrapolating results to humans.

Observational Studies Do Not AllowRobust Conclusions on Differential Risk of GBCAs
* Wertman et al. Radiology 2008 (248) 3:799-806
No adequate observational studies or randomized clinical trials have compared the risk of NSF among available GBCAs.
The only study that compared the risk of NSF among GBCAs reported a significantly higher risk (OR=13.17 [95% CI: 4.6-37.2]) with Omniscan than with Magnevist*.
However, this study did not adjust for many important confounding variables (e.g., dose, indication, number of patients at risk receiving GBCAs, number of procedures per patient).

1. GBCAs with recent-market entry are likely to be used in patients exposed to older GBCAs, especially those with dominant market share.
2. Analyses that focus on unconfounded cases and exclude cases involving multiple GBCAs are likely to yield a biased underestimate of NSF risk among recent-entry agents.
3. Analyses that focus on unconfounded cases ignore available information regarding the temporal proximity of a recently-used GBCA and the development of NSF.
4. Recently-approved GBCAs have been used in an environ-ment of heightened awareness of NSF risk, and thus, their use is likely to have been directed towards low-risk patients.
Comparisons of NSF Risk Among Early-Entry andRecent-Entry GBCAs May be Difficult to Interpret

Participating country US
Number of active sites 18
First patient/First visit November 2008

Magnevist - Summary
Nonclinical studies suggest a lower NSF risk for ionic linear GBCAs (e.g. Magnevist) and macrocyclic GBCAs as compared with non-ionic linear GBCAs (e.g. Omniscan, Optimark).
Clinical data (from spontaneous reporting and observationalstudies) indicate a lower NSF risk for Magnevist as comparedwith non-ionic agents, such as Omniscan and Optimark.
No data from clinical studies has yielded evidence for reliabledifferences in NSF risk between Magnevist and other ioniclinear (e.g. MultiHance) or macrocyclic GBCAs.
Focusing risk assessment on the frequency of spontaneous unconfounded (single agent) reports is likely to yield biased risk estimates among recently-approved GBCAs.
Current class labeling and awareness of NSF risk factors appear to have nearly eliminated occurrence of new cases of NSF.
