Overview

Ferumoxytol for Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Patients With Severe Kidney Disease

Status:
Enrolling by invitation
Trial end date:
2023-02-27
Target enrollment:
0
Participant gender:
All
Summary
There are no current alternatives to diagnostic contrast-requiring imaging for patients with an eGFR <30mL/min due to the association of gadolinium-based imaging modalities to nephrogenic systemic fibrosis and iodinated contrast-induced kidney injury. Ferumoxytol-enhanced imaging may offer an alternative approach.
Phase:
Phase 3
Accepts Healthy Volunteers?
No
Details
Lead Sponsor:
Brigham and Women's Hospital
Treatments:
Ferrosoferric Oxide
Criteria
Both female and male participants are being studied aged 18-85 years old with an estimated
glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of less than 30ml/min/1.73 meters squared. Patients will
have undergone cardiac screening tests that warrant further evaluation. Patients will be
excluded with an eGFR >30ml/min/1.73 meters squared.
