Trial design

CTIS Part I — objectives, methods, condition coding

Main objective

Scope: Diagnosis, Safety, Efficacy

To validate the use of 0.05 mmol/kg of Gadopiclenol in the detection and monitoring of perianal fistulas by magnetic resonance imaging studies.

Secondary objectives 1

  1. To determine possible differences in magnetic resonance imaging studies using Gadopiclenol compared with conventional contrast media in patients with Crohn's disease and perianal fistulas.

Conditions and MedDRA coding

Perianal fistula associated with Crohn's disease

Eligibility criteria

Principal inclusion / exclusion criteria as submitted by sponsor

Inclusion criteria 3

  1. Patients of legal age with Crohn's disease and perianal disease attributable to their condition
  2. Subjects with onset of Crohn's disease with perianal disease
  3. Sign informed consent

Exclusion criteria 5

  1. Age ˂18 years
  2. Pregnancy and/or breastfeeding
  3. Renal failure (GFR ˂30 ml/min in recent laboratory values up to 6 months old)
  4. History of hypersensitivity reaction to gadolinium-containing contrast media
  5. Patients with Crohn's disease without perianal disease

Endpoints

Primary and secondary outcome measures (English text)

Primary endpoints 1

  1. The main variable to be analyzed is qualitative in nature and corresponds to the correct, verified detection of the perianal fistula tract in the magnetic resonance imaging study. This will be done by direct observation of the MRI studies generated at Visit 2 and Visit 4 by the investigator team.

Secondary endpoints 3

  1. The secondary variables to be analyzed will enable a more exhaustive study of the use of contrast media in this type of pathology, in order to refine its use. The secondary variables are quantitative in nature and are as follows:
  2. CNR (contrast-to-noise ratio) between different regions of interest in the fistulous tract and adjacent healthy tissue.
  3. Enhancement contrast percentage in different regions of interest of the fistulous tract before and after contrast medium administration.
