November 26, 2022 — Guerbet LLC, the US affiliate of Guerbet, a global leader in medical imaging offering a comprehensive range of pharmaceutical products, medical devices, and digital and artificial intelligence (AI) solutions for diagnostic and interventional imaging, will present data on Elucirem (gadopiclenol) injection, Dotarem (gadoterate meglumine) injection and AI solutions at the 2022 Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting.
"It's very exciting to be back at RSNA, to give the radiology community a first-hand opportunity to experience the clarity of MRI images offered by our new MRI product, Elucirem," said David Hale, Chief Executive Officer of the Guerbet Group. "We look forward to sharing insights about gadopiclenol, a novel, highly stable macrocyclic gadolinium-based contrast agent offering the highest relaxivity in its class for magnetic resonance imaging.2"
Elucirem is indicated for use with MRI in adults and pediatric patients aged two years and older to detect and visualize lesions in the central nervous system (brain, spine and associated tissues) and the body (head and neck, thorax, abdomen, pelvis and musculoskeletal system).1
For Elucirem, Guerbet received Priority Review by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on the basis of the unmet medical needs, as there are currently no U.S. approved and marketed MRI contrast agents indicated for musculoskeletal lesion visualization and no macrocyclic GBCAs approved broadly to visualize lesions located throughout the body.3 Guerbet received US FDA's marketing approval for Elucirem on September 21, 2022.
Elucirem (gadopiclenol) injection will be available in glass vials, glass pharmacy bulk packages and in plastic pre-filled syringes, which can help to streamline workflow in the imaging suite. All gadopiclenol is manufactured by Guerbet Group Company.
ELUCIREM (gadopiclenol) injection and DOTAREM (gadoterate meglumine) injection Important Safety Information
|
WARNING: NEPHROGENIC SYSTEMIC FIBROSIS (NSF) See full prescribing information for complete boxed warning Gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) increase the risk for NSF among patients with impaired elimination of the drugs. Avoid use of GBCAs in these patients unless the diagnostic information is essential and not available with non-contrasted MRI or other modalities.
