8 Gadolinium contrast agents for MRI (GdCA) Mar 2016 : Start of referral on Gd contrast agents for MRI to review risk of Gd deposition in brain tissue Mars 2017 : PRAC recommends regulatory actions: Suspension of four linear Gd contrast agents Primovist(for hepatic MRI) remains with SmPC updates Product information for other (macrocyclic agents) to be updated April 2017: Some MAHs have requested a re examination Re examination started in May; expected to conclude in July 2017 SE (UWL) PRAC rapp; DE PRAC CoR 15 Gd: Summary grounds for PRAC recommendation Mar 2017 Data (stability, in vitro, non clinical) suggest more Gd released from linear than macrocyclic agents Gdmeasured in brain indirectly and directly. Non clinical data show linear agents persist up to one year / longer. Macrocyclic transient No adverse neurological effects demonstrated; long term safety data limited Harmful effects plausible (dechelation and known toxicity of unchelated Gd). Linear GdCAs associated with risk of NSF, Gd associated skin plaque Studies to fully address serious concerns not feasible Risk minimisation measures not effective B/R negative for gadobenic acid, gadodiamide, gadopentetic acid, and gadoversetamide B/R positive for Primovist (gadoxetic acid) due to substantial hepatic uptake, low dose, clinical utility for some imaging Magnevist (gadopentetic acid) for intra articular injection All macrocyclic GdCAs with SmPC changes 16 information som fanns tillgänglig vid presentationstillfället. 8
