description ABSTRACT BACKGROUNDANDPURPOSE: Effective management of patients with brain tumors depends on accurate detection and characterization of lesions. This study aimed to demonstrate the noninferiority of gadoterate meglumine versus gadobutrol for overall visualization and characterization of primary brain tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This multicenter, double-blind, randomized, controlled intraindividual, crossover, noninferiority study included279patients.Bothcontrastagents(dose=0.1mmol/kgofbodyweight)wereassessedwith2identicalMRIsatatimeintervalof 2–14 days. The primary end point was overall lesion visualization and characterization, scored independently by 3 off-site readers on a 4-point scale, ranging from “poor” to “excellent.” Secondary end points were qualitative assessments (lesion border delineation, internal morphology, degree of contrast enhancement, diagnostic confidence), quantitative measurements (signal intensity), and safety (adverse events). All qualitative assessments were also performed on-site. RESULTS: Forall3readers,imagesofmostpatients(>90%)werescoredgoodorexcellentforoveralllesionvisualizationandcharacterizationwitheithercontrastagent;andthenoninferiorityofgadoteratemeglumineversusgadobutrolwasstatisticallydemonstrated.No significant differences were observed between the 2 contrast agents regarding qualitative end points despite quantitative mean lesion percentageenhancementbeinghigherwithgadobutrol(P<.001).Diagnosticconfidencewashigh/excellentforallreadersin>81%ofthe patientswithbothcontrastagents.Similarpercentagesofpatientswithadverseeventsrelatedtothecontrastagentswereobservedwith gadoterate meglumine (7.8%) and gadobutrol (7.3%), mainly injection site pain.
