简要总结
Safety and Efficacy Study in pediatric subjects aged 9 to 17 years of age with suboptimal LV EBD on non-contrast 2D echocardiography. Imaging modalities that are used throughout the study in pediatric subjects represented those utilized in routine clinical practice in adults.
详细描述
This was a Phase III, multicenter, open-label study that was to be conducted at approximately 7-12 sites in the United States, Canada and Europe in pediatric patients with suboptimal LV EBD on non-contrast 2D transthoracic echocardiography. It was estimated that 92 patients were to be enrolled to provide 73 evaluable patients.
Three cardiologists unaffiliated with enrolling centers (blinded readers), blinded to the patient's identity and clinical profile were to independently evaluate the echocardiograms. The efficacy analysis was primarily based on the blinded reader evaluations.
Imaging modalities that are used throughout the study in pediatric subjects represented those utilized in routine clinical practice in adults.
One of the sites participating in this study was to be asked to consent a subset of patients for additional blood sampling for analysis of SF6 concentration in blood from a total of 6 patients (3 males and 3 females) in the age group 9 up to 12 years of age and 6 patients (3 males and 3 females) in the age of >12 up to and including 17 years.
The current study was designed to assess the efficacy of Lumason-enhanced echocardiography in pediatric patients.

研究组 & 干预措施
Lumason
All patients were administered, Lumason (sulphur hexafluoride lipid-type A microspheres) an ultrasound contrast agent as a single 0.03 mL/kg bolus injection during echocardiography.
干预措施: sulphur hexafluoride lipid-type A microspheres (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline in Total Left Ventricular Endocardial Border Delineation (LV EBD) Scores
时间窗: Immediately post dose-Day 1
The total LV EBD score for a subject was the total of the EBD scores (Inadequate - 0, sufficient - 1, Good - 2) from the 17 segments (from the apical 4-chamber, apical 2-chamber and apical long (3-chamber) views, according to the guidelines of the American Society of Echocardiography). The total LV EBD scores could range from 0 to 34 and are presented below for each of the three readers for both unenhanced ultrasound (UEUS) and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). Change from baseline is the difference between UEUS and CEUS in total LV EBD scores.
Percentage of Participants With Adequate Left Ventricular Opacification (LVO)
时间窗: Immediately post dose-Day 1
LVO was graded as 0 to +3, 4-point rating scale. Left ventricular opacification rating of +2 (non-homogeneous) or +3 (complete and homogeneous) was considered as adequate LVO.
