A Study to Compare How Well Gadoquatrane Works and Its Safety With an Already Available Contrast Agent for MRI in People With Known or Suspected Brain or Spinal Cord-related Problems

Study Summary

Researchers are looking for a better way to help people with known or suspected brain or spinal cord-related problems scheduled for a "contrast-enhanced" Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). MRI is used by doctors to create detailed images of the inside of the body to identify health problems. Sometimes doctors need to inject a contrast agent into a patient's vein to perform a so called "contrast-enhanced" MRI (CE-MRI). Such CE-MRI examinations may support doctors to identify certain health problems or improve the evaluation. The contrast agents commonly used in MRI are gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs). GBCAs contain a "rare earth" element called gadolinium (Gd). Gadoquatrane is a new contrast agent under development with a lower amount of Gd needed per CE-MRI. The main purpose of this study is to learn whether CE-MRI scans with gadoquatrane work better than MRI scans without the use of a contrast agent (GBCA). The researchers will compare the ability to detect brain and spinal cord-related problems in gadoquatrane-MRI scans to plain-MRI scans without the use of a contrast agent. The participants will undergo 2 MRI scans, one with gadoquatrane and one with currently used GBCA. Both contrast agents will be injected into the vein. Each participant will be in the study for between 6 and 42 days with up to 7 doctor visits. At the start or during the study, the doctors and their study team will: * take blood and urine samples * do physical examinations * check blood pressure and heart rate * review the MRI scans obtained in the study and decide on the diagnosis * ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having. An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events, irrespective if they think it is related or not to the study treatments.

Primary Outcome

Contrast Enhancement will be assessed on a 4-point scale (1/No: not enhanced, 2/Moderate: weakly enhanced, 3/Good: clearly enhanced, 4/Excellent: clearly and brightly enhanced). BICR = blinded independent central read / blinded independent central readers; MRI = magnetic resonance imaging
