Jan. 10, 2025 – Bayer has announced positive topline results of the Phase III QUANTI studies evaluating the efficacy and safety of gadoquatrane, an investigational gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA) for use in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

All QUANTI studies investigated gadoquatrane at a gadolinium dose of 0.04 mmol Gd/kg body weight which represents a gadolinium dose reduction of 60 percent compared to the macrocyclic GBCAs dosed at 0.1 mmol Gd/kg body weight. Gadoquatrane successfully met the primary and main secondary endpoints of all QUANTI studies.

Jan. 14, 2025 – The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force has published a final recommendation statement on screening for osteoporosis to prevent fractures.
