6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following serious adverse reactions are discussed elsewhere in labeling: Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF) [see Boxed Warning and Warnings and Precautions (5.1 )] . Hypersensitivity reactions [see Contraindications ( 4 ) and Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] . Most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥0.5%) are headache, nausea, and dizziness ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Slate Run Pharmaceuticals, LLC at 1-888-341-9214 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch. 6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in clinical practice. The adverse reactions described in this section reflect gadobutrol injection exposure in 7,713 subjects (including 184 pediatric patients, ages 0 to 17 years) with the majority receiving the recommended dose. Approximately 52% of the subjects were male and the ethnic distribution was 62% Caucasian, 28% Asian, 5% Hispanic, 2.5% Black, and 2.5% patients of other ethnic groups. The average age was 56 years (range from 1 week to 93 years). Overall, approximately 4% of subjects reported one or more adverse reactions during a follow-up period that ranged from 24 hours to 7 days after gadobutrol injection administration. Adverse reactions associated with the use of gadobutrol injection were usually mild to moderate in severity and transient in nature. Table 2: lists adverse reactions that occurred in ≥0.1% subjects who received gadobutrol injection.

2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Recommended dose for adults and pediatric patients (including term neonates) is 0.1 mL/kg body weight ( 2.1 ) Administer as an intravenous bolus injection ( 2.2 ) Follow injection with a normal saline flush ( 2.2 ) 2.1 Recommended Dose The recommended dose of gadobutrol injection for adult and pediatric patients (including term neonates) is 0.1 mL/kg body weight (0.1 mmol/kg). Refer to Table 1 to determine the volume to be administered. Table 1: Volume of Gadobutrol Injection by Body Weight for Cardiac MRI, the dose is divided into 2 separate, equal injections Body Weight (kg) Volume to be Administered (mL) 2.5 0.25 5 0.5 10 1 15 1.5 20 2 25 2.5 30 3 35 3.5 40 4 45 4.5 50 5 60 6 70 7 80 8 90 9 100 10 110 11 120 12 130 13 140 14 2.2 Administration Guidelines Gadobutrol injection is formulated at a higher concentration (1 mmol/mL) compared to certain other gadolinium based contrast agents, resulting in a lower volume of administration. Use Table 1 to determine the volume to be administered. Use sterile technique when preparing and administering gadobutrol injection. MRI of the Central Nervous System Administer gadobutrol injection as an intravenous injection, manually or by power injector, at a flow rate of approximately 2 mL/second. Follow gadobutrol injection with a normal saline flush to ensure complete administration of the contrast. Post contrast MRI can commence immediately following contrast administration. MRI of the Breast Administer gadobutrol injection as an intravenous bolus by power injector, followed by a normal saline flush to ensure complete administration of the contrast. Start image acquisition following contrast administration and then repeat sequentially to determine peak intensity and wash-out. MR Angiography Image acquisition should coincide with peak arterial concentration, which varies among patients. Adults Administer gadobutrol injection by power injector, at a flow rate of approximately 1.5 mL/second, followed by a 30 mL normal saline flush at the same rate to ensure complete administration of the contrast. Pediatric patients Administer gadobutrol injection by power injector or manually, followed by a normal saline flush to ensure complete administration of the contrast. Cardiac MRI Administer gadobutrol injection through a separate intravenous line in the contralateral arm if concomitantly providing a continuous infusion of a pharmacologic stress agent. Administer gadobutrol injection as two (2) separate bolus injections: 0.05 mL/kg (0.05 mmol/kg) body weight at peak pharmacologic stress followed by 0.05 mL/kg (0.05 mmol/kg) body weight at rest. Administer gadobutrol injection via a power injector at a flow rate of approximately 4 mL/second and follow each injection with a normal saline flush of 20 mL at the same flow rate. 2.3 Drug Handling Visually inspect gadobutrol injection for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration. Do not use the solution if it is discolored, if particulate matter is present or if the container appears damaged. Do not mix gadobutrol injection with other medications and do not administer gadobutrol injection in the same intravenous line simultaneously with other medications because of the potential for chemical incompatibility. Vials Draw gadobutrol injection into the syringe immediately before use. Do not pierce the rubber stopper more than once. Discard any unused vial contents.

1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE Gadobutrol injection is a gadolinium-based contrast agent indicated for use with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): To detect and visualize areas with disrupted blood brain barrier and/or abnormal vascularity of the central nervous system in adult and pediatric patients, including term neonates ( 1.1 ) To assess the presence and extent of malignant breast disease in adult patients ( 1.2 ) To evaluate known or suspected supra-aortic or renal artery disease in adult and pediatric patients, including term neonates ( 1.3 ) To assess myocardial perfusion (stress, rest) and late gadolinium enhancement in adult patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) ( 1.4 ) 1.1 Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the Central Nervous System (CNS) Gadobutrol injection is indicated for use with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in adult and pediatric patients, including term neonates to detect and visualize areas with disrupted blood brain barrier and/or abnormal vascularity of the central nervous system. 1.2 MRI of the Breast Gadobutrol injection is indicated for use with MRI in adult patients to assess the presence and extent of malignant breast disease. 1.3 Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA) Gadobutrol injection is indicated for use in magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) in adult and pediatric patients, including term neonates, to evaluate known or suspected supra-aortic or renal artery disease. 1.4 Cardiac MRI Gadobutrol injection is indicated for use in cardiac MRI (CMRI) to assess myocardial perfusion (stress, rest) and late gadolinium enhancement in adult patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD).

10 OVERDOSAGE The maximum dose of gadobutrol injection tested in healthy volunteers, 1.5 mL/kg body weight (1.5 mmol/kg; 15 times the recommended dose), was tolerated in a manner similar to lower doses. Gadobutrol injection can be removed by hemodialysis [see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.6 ) and Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )].

12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY 12.1 Mechanism of Action In MRI, visualization of normal and pathological tissue depends in part on variations in the radiofrequency signal intensity that occurs with: Differences in proton density Differences of the spin-lattice or longitudinal relaxation times (T 1 ) Differences in the spin-spin or transverse relaxation time (T 2 ) When placed in a magnetic field, gadobutrol injection shortens the T 1 and T 2 relaxation times. The extent of decrease of T 1 and T 2 relaxation times, and therefore the amount of signal enhancement obtained from gadobutrol injection, is based upon several factors including the concentration of gadobutrol injection in the tissue, the field strength of the MRI system, and the relative ratio of the longitudinal and transverse relaxation times. At the recommended dose, the T 1 shortening effect is observed with greatest sensitivity in T 1 -weighted magnetic resonance sequences. In T 2 *-weighted sequences the induction of local magnetic field inhomogeneities by the large magnetic moment of gadolinium and at high concentrations (during bolus injection) leads to a signal decrease. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics Gadobutrol injection leads to distinct shortening of the relaxation times even in low concentrations. At pH 7, 37°C and 1.5 T, the relaxivity (r 1 ) - determined from the influence on the relaxation times (T 1 ) of protons in plasma - is 5.2 L/(mmol·sec) and the relaxivity (r 2 ) - determined from the influence on the relaxation times (T 2 ) - is 6.1 L/(mmol·sec). These relaxivities display only slight dependence on the strength of the magnetic field. The T 1 shortening effect of paramagnetic contrast agents is dependent on concentration and r 1 relaxivity (see Table 3). This may improve tissue visualization. Table 3: Relaxivity (r 1 ) of Gadolinium Chelates at 1.5T Gadolinium-Chelate r 1 (L·mmol -1 ·s -1 ) Gadobenate 6.3 Gadobutrol 5.2 Gadodiamide 4.3 Gadofosveset 16 Gadopentetate 4.1 Gadoterate 3.6 Gadoteridol 4.1 Gadoversetamide 4.7 Gadoxetate 6.9 r 1 relaxivity in plasma at 37°C Compared to 0.5 molar gadolinium-based contrast agents, the higher concentration of gadobutrol injection results in half the volume of administration and a more compact contrast bolus injection. At the site of imaging, the relative height and width of the time intensity curve for gadobutrol injection varies as a function of imaging location and multiple patient, injection, and device-specific factors. Gadobutrol injection is a water-soluble, hydrophilic compound with a partition coefficient between n-butanol and buffer at pH 7.6 of about 0.006. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics Distribution After intravenous administration, gadobutrol is rapidly distributed in the extracellular space. After a gadobutrol dose of 0.1 mmol/kg body weight, an average level of 0.59 mmol gadobutrol/L was measured in plasma 2 minutes after the injection and 0.3 mmol gadobutrol/L 60 minutes after the injection. Gadobutrol does not display any particular protein binding. Following GBCA administration, gadolinium is present for months or years in brain, bone, skin, and other organs [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 )]. Metabolism Gadobutrol is not metabolized. Elimination Values for AUC, body weight normalized plasma clearance and half-life are given in Table 4, below. Gadobutrol is excreted in an unchanged form via the kidneys. In healthy subjects, renal clearance of gadobutrol is 1.1 to 1.7 mL/(min∙kg) and thus comparable to the renal clearance of inulin, confirming that gadobutrol is eliminated by glomerular filtration. Within two hours after intravenous administration more than 50% and within 12 hours more than 90% of the given dose is eliminated via the urine. Extra-renal elimination is negligible. Specific Populations Gender Gender has no clinically relevant effect on the pharmacokinetics of gadobutrol. Geriatric A single IV dose of 0.1 mmol/kg gadobutrol injection was administered to 15 elderly and 16 non-elderly subjects. AUC was slightly higher and clearance slightly lower in elderly subjects as compared to non-elderly subjects [see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.5 )]. Pediatric The pharmacokinetics of gadobutrol were evaluated in two studies in a total of 130 patients age 2 to less than 18 years and in 43 patients less than 2 years of age (including term neonates). Patients received a single intravenous dose of 0.1 mmol/kg of gadobutrol injection. The pharmacokinetic profile of gadobutrol in pediatric patients is similar to that in adults, resulting in similar values for AUC, body weight normalized plasma clearance, as well as elimination half-life. Approximately 99% (median value) of the dose was recovered in urine within 6 hours (this information was derived from the 2 to less than 18 year old age group). Table 4: Pharmacokinetics by Age Group (Median [Range]) 0 to <2 years N=43 2 to 6 years N=45 7 to 11 years N=39 12 to <18 years N=46 Adults N=93 AUC (μmolxh/L) 781 [513, 1891] 846 [412, 1331] 1025 [623, 2285] 1237 [946, 2211] 1072 [667, 1992] CL (L/h/kg) 0.128 [0.053, 0.195] 0.119 [0.080, 0.215] 0.099 [0.043, 0.165] 0.081 [0.046, 0.103] 0.094 [0.051, 0.15] t 1/2 (h) 2.91 [1.60, 12.4] 1.91 [1.04, 2.7] 1.66 [0.91, 2.71] 1.68 [1.31, 2.48] 1.8 [1.20, 6.55] C20 (μmol/L) 367 [280, 427] 421 [369, 673] 462 [392, 760] 511 [387, 1077] 441 [281, 829] Renal Impairment In patients with impaired renal function, the serum half-life of gadobutrol is prolonged and correlated with the reduction in creatinine clearance. After intravenous injection of 0.1 mmol gadobutrol/kg body weight, the elimination half-life was 5.8 ± 2.4 hours in mild to moderately impaired patients (80 > CLCR >30 mL/min) and 17.6 ± 6.2 hours in severely impaired patients not on dialysis (CLCR <30 mL/min). The mean AUC of gadobutrol in patients with normal renal function was 1.1 ± 0.1 mmol∙h/L, compared to 4 ± 1.8 mmol∙h/L in patients with mild to moderate renal impairment and 11.5 ± 4.3 mmol∙h/L in patients with severe renal impairment. Complete recovery in the urine was seen in patients with mild or moderate renal impairment within 72 hours. In patients with severely impaired renal function about 80% of the administered dose was recovered in the urine within 5 days. For patients receiving hemodialysis, physicians may consider the prompt initiation of hemodialysis following the administration of gadobutrol injection in order to enhance the contrast agent’s elimination. Sixty-eight percent (68%) of gadobutrol is removed from the body after the first dialysis, 94% after the second dialysis, and 98% after the third dialysis session. [See Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 ) and Use in Specific Populations ( 8.6 )].

MEDICATION GUIDE GADOBUTROL INJECTION Gadobutrol (gad” oh bue’ trol) Injection for intravenous use What is the most important information I should know about gadobutrol injection? Gadobutrol injection contains a metal called gadolinium. Small amounts of gadolinium can stay in your body including the brain, bones, skin and other parts of your body for a long time (several months to years). It is not known how gadolinium may affect you, but so far, studies have not found harmful effects in patients with normal kidneys. Rarely, patients have reported pains, tiredness, and skin, muscle or bone ailments for a long time, but these symptoms have not been directly linked to gadolinium. There are different GBCAs that can be used for your MRI exam. The amount of gadolinium that stays in the body is different for different gadolinium medicines. Gadolinium stays in the body more after Omniscan or Optimark than after Eovist, Magnevist, or MultiHance. Gadolinium stays in the body the least after Dotarem, gadobutrol injection, or ProHance. People who get many doses of gadolinium medicines, women who are pregnant and young children may be at increased risk from gadolinium staying in the body. Some people with kidney problems who get gadolinium medicines can develop a condition with severe thickening of the skin, muscles and other organs in the body (nephrogenic systemic fibrosis). Your healthcare provider should screen you to see how well your kidneys are working before you receive gadobutrol injection. What is gadobutrol injection? Gadobutrol injection is a prescription medicine called a gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA). Gadobutrol injection, like other GBCAs, is injected into your vein and used with a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner. An MRI exam with a GBCA, including gadobutrol injection, helps your doctor to see problems better than an MRI exam without a GBCA. Your doctor has reviewed your medical records and has determined that you would benefit from using a GBCA with your MRI exam. Who should not take gadobutrol injection? Do not receive gadobutrol injection if you have had a severe allergic reaction to gadobutrol injection. How should I take gadobutrol injection? Before receiving gadobutrol injection, tell your healthcare provider about all your medical conditions, including if you: have had any MRI procedures in the past where you received a GBCA. Your healthcare provider may ask you for more information including the dates of these MRI procedures. are pregnant or plan to become pregnant.

14 CLINICAL STUDIES 14.1 MRI of the CNS Patients referred for MRI of the central nervous system with contrast were enrolled in two clinical trials that evaluated the visualization characteristics of lesions. In both studies, patients underwent a baseline, pre-contrast MRI prior to administration of gadobutrol injection at a dose of 0.1 mmol/kg, followed by a post-contrast MRI. In Study A, patients also underwent an MRI before and after the administration of gadoteridol. The studies were designed to demonstrate superiority of gadobutrol injection MRI to non-contrast MRI for lesion visualization. For both studies, pre-contrast and pre-plus-post contrast images (paired images) were independently evaluated by three readers for contrast enhancement and border delineation using a scale of 1 to 4, and for internal morphology using a scale of 1 to 3 (Table 5). Lesion counting was also performed to demonstrate non-inferiority of paired gadobutrol injection image sets to pre-contrast MRI. Readers were blinded to clinical information. Table 5: Primary Endpoint Visualization Scoring System Score Visualization Characteristics Contrast Enhancement Border Delineation Internal Morphology 1 None None Poorly visible 2 Weak Moderate Moderately visible 3 Clear Clear but incomplete Sufficiently visible 4 Clear and bright Clear and complete N/A Efficacy was determined in 657 subjects. The average age was 49 years (range 18 to 85 years) and 42% were male. The ethnic representations were 39% Caucasian, 4% Black, 16% Hispanic, 38% Asian, and 3% of other ethnic groups. Table 6 shows a comparison of visualization results between paired images and pre-contrast images. Gadobutrol injection provided a statistically significant improvement for each of the three lesion visualization parameters when averaged across three independent readers for each study. Table 6: Visualization Endpoint Results of Central Nervous System Adult MRI Studies with 0.1 mmol/kg Gadobutrol Injection Endpoint Study A N=336 Study B N=321 Pre-contrast Paired Difference Difference of means = (paired mean) – (pre-contrast mean) Pre-contrast Paired Difference Contrast Enhancement 0.97 2.26 1.29 p<0.001 0.93 2.86 1.94 Border Delineation 1.98 2.58 0.6 1.92 2.94 1.02 Internal Morphology 1.32 1.93 0.6 1.57 2.35 0.78 Average # Lesions Detected 8.08 8.25 0.17 Did not meet noninferiority margin of -0.35 2.65 2.97 0.32 Met noninferiority margin of -0.35 Performances of gadobutrol and gadoteridol for visualization parameters were similar. Regarding the number of lesions detected, Study B met the prespecified noninferiority margin of -0.35 for paired read versus pre-contrast read while in Study A, gadobutrol and gadoteridol did not. For the visualization endpoints contrast enhancement, border delineation, and internal morphology, the percentage of patients scoring higher for paired images compared to pre-contrast images ranged from 93% to 99% for Study A, and 95% to 97% for Study B. For both studies, the mean number of lesions detected on paired images exceeded that of the pre-contrast images; 37% for Study A and 24% for Study B. There were 29% and 11% of subjects in which the pre-contrast images detected more lesions for Study A and Study B, respectively. The percentage of patients whose average reader mean score changed by ≤0, up to 1, up to 2, and ≥2 scoring categories presented in Table 5 is shown in Table 7. The categorical improvement of (≤0) represents higher (<0) or identical (=0) scores for the pre-contrast read, the categories with scores >0 represent the magnitude of improvement seen for the paired read.

Pediatric Patients Two studies in 44 pediatric patients age younger than 2 years and 135 pediatric patients age 2 to less than 18 years with CNS and non-CNS lesions supported extrapolation of adult CNS efficacy findings. For example, comparing pre vs paired pre- and post-contrast images, investigators selected the best of four descriptors under the heading, “Visualization of lesion-internal morphology (lesion characterization) or homogeneity of vessel enhancement” for 27/44 (62% = pre) vs 43/44 (98% = paired) MR images from patients age 0 to less than 2 years and 106/135 (78% = pre) vs 108/135 (80% = paired) MR images from patients age 2 to less than 18 years. 14.2 MRI of the Breast Patients with recently diagnosed breast cancer were enrolled in two identical clinical trials to evaluate the ability of gadobutrol injection to assess the presence and extent of malignant breast disease prior to surgery. Patients underwent non-contrast breast MRI (BMR) prior to gadobutrol injection (0.1 mmol/kg) breast MRI. BMR images and gadobutrol injection BMR (combined contrast plus non-contrast) images were independently evaluated in each study by three readers blinded to clinical information. In separate reading sessions the BMR images and gadobutrol injection BMR images were also interpreted together with X-ray mammography images (XRM). The studies evaluated 787 patients: Study 1 enrolled 390 women with an average age of 56 years, 74% were white, 25% Asian, 0.5% black, and 0.5% other; Study 2 enrolled 396 women and 1 man with an average age of 57 years, 71% were white, 24% Asian, 3% black, and 2% other. The readers assessed 5 regions per breast for the presence of malignancy using each reading modality. The readings were compared to an independent standard of truth (SoT) consisting of histopathology for all regions where excisions were made and tissue evaluated. XRM plus ultrasound was used for all other regions. The assessment of malignant disease was performed using a region based within-subject sensitivity. Sensitivity for each reading modality was defined as the mean of the percentage of malignant breast regions correctly interpreted for each subject. The within-subject sensitivity of gadobutrol injection BMR was superior to that of BMR. The lower bound of the 95% Confidence Interval (CI) for the difference in within-subject sensitivity ranged from 19% to 42% for Study 1 and from 12% to 27% for Study 2. The within-subject sensitivity for gadobutrol injection BMR and BMR as well as for gadobutrol injection BMR plus XRM and BMR plus XRM is presented in Table 8. Table 8: Sensitivity of Gadobutrol Injection BMR for Detection of Malignant Breast Disease Study 1 Study 2 Sensitivity (%) N=388 Patients Sensitivity (%) N=390 Patients Reader BMR BMR + XRM Gadobutrol injection BMR Gadobutrol injection BMR + XRM Reader BMR BMR + XRM Gadobutrol injection BMR Gadobutrol injection BMR + XRM 1 37 71 83 84 4 73 83 87 90 2 49 76 80 83 5 57 81 89 90 3 63 75 87 87 6 55 80 86 88 Specificity was defined as the percentage of non-malignant breasts correctly identified as non-malignant. The lower limit of the 95% confidence interval for specificity of gadobutrol injection BMR was greater than 80% for 5 of 6 readers. (Table 9). Table 9: Specificity of Gadobutrol Injection BMR in Non-Malignant Breasts Study 1 Study 2 Specificity (%) N=372 Patients Specificity (%) N=367 Patients Reader Gadobutrol injection BMR Lower Limit 95% CI Reader Gadobutrol injection BMR Lower Limit 95% CI 1 86 82 4 92 89 2 95 93 5 84 80 3 89 85 6 83 79 Three additional readers in each study read XRM alone. For these readers over both studies, sensitivity ranged from 68% to 73% and specificity in non-malignant breasts ranged from 86% to 94%. In breasts with malignancy, a false positive detection rate was calculated as the percentage of subjects for which the readers assessed a region as malignant which could not be verified by SoT. The false positive detection rates for gadobutrol injection BMR ranged from 39% to 53% (95% CI Upper Bounds ranged from 44% to 58%). 14.3 MRA Patients with known or suspected disease of the supra-aortic arteries (for evaluation up to but excluding the basilar artery) were enrolled in Study C, and patients with known or suspected disease of the renal arteries were enrolled in Study D. In both studies, non-contrast, 2D time-of-flight (ToF) magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) was performed prior to gadobutrol injection MRA using a single intravenous injection of 0.1 mmol/kg. The injection rate of 1.5 mL/second was selected to extend the injection duration to at least half of the imaging duration. Imaging was performed with parallel-channel, 1.5T MRI devices and an automatic bolus tracking technique to trigger the image acquisition following gadobutrol injection administration using elliptically encoded, T1-weighted, 3D gradient-echo image acquisition and single breath hold. Three central readers blinded to clinical information interpreted the ToF and gadobutrol injection MRA images. Three additional central readers interpreted separately acquired computed tomographic angiography (CTA) images, which were used as the standard of reference (SoR) in each study. The studies included 749 subjects: 457 were evaluated in Study C, with an average age of 68 (range 25–93); 64% were male; 80% white, 28% black, and 16% Asian. An additional 292 subjects were evaluated in Study D, with an average age of 55 (range 18–88); 54% were male; 68% white, 7% black, and 22% Asian. Efficacy was evaluated based on anatomical visualization and performance for distinguishing between normal and abnormal anatomy. The visualization metric depended on whether readers selected, “Yes, it can be visualized along its entire length...” when responding to the question, “Is this segment assessable?” Twenty-one segments in Study C and six segments in Study D were presented per subject to each reader. The performance metrics, sensitivity and specificity, depended on digital caliper-based quantitation of arterial narrowing in visualized, non-occluded, abnormal-appearing segments. Significant stenosis was defined as at least 70% in Study C and 50% in Study D. Performance of gadobutrol injection MRA compared to ToF MRA was calculated using an imputation method for non-visualized segments by assigning them as a 50% match with SoR and a 50% mismatch. Performance of gadobutrol injection MRA compared to a pre-specified threshold of 50% was calculated after excluding non-visualized segments. Measurement variability and visualization of accessory renal arteries was also evaluated. Results were analyzed for each of the three central readers.

For all three supra-aortic artery readers in Study C, the lower bound of confidence for the sensitivity of gadobutrol injection MRA did not exceed 54%. For all three renal artery readers in Study D, the lower bound of confidence for the sensitivity of gadobutrol injection MRA did not exceed 46%. Measurement Variability For both MRA and CTA, readers varied in the quantity of narrowing they assigned to the same arterial segments. Table 11 shows the percentage of patients in whom the measurement range was 30% or greater for the left or right internal carotid and proximal renal artery segments. There were approximately four measurements per patient segment, one from the site and three central readers. Measurement variability was high for both CTA and MRA, but numerically lower for gadobutrol injection compared to non-contrast ToF MRA.

With the central MRA readers, the comparable rates were 232 of 1752 (13%) for gadobutrol MRA compared to 53 of 1752 (3%) for ToF MRA. 14.4 Cardiac MRI Two studies similar in design, Study E and Study F, evaluated the sensitivity and specificity of gadobutrol injection cardiac MRI (CMRI) for detection of coronary artery disease (CAD) in adult patients with known or suspected CAD. Patients were excluded from study if they had a history of coronary artery bypass grafting, or if it was known in advance that they were unable to hold their breath, or had atrial fibrillation or other arrhythmia likely to prevent electrocardiogram-gated CMRI. The studies were multi-center, open-label, and evaluated 764 subjects for efficacy: 376 in Study E, with an average age of 59 (range 20–84); 69% male; 74% white, 1% black, and 25% Asian; and 388 subjects in Study F, with an average age of 59 (range 23–82); 61% male; 67% white, 17% black, and 12% Asian. All subjects underwent dynamic first-pass gadobutrol injection imaging during vasodilator stress, followed ~10 minutes later by dynamic first-pass gadobutrol injection imaging at rest, followed ~5 minutes later with imaging during a period of gradual gadobutrol injection washout from the myocardium (late gadolinium enhancement, LGE). Imaging was performed on 1.5 T or 3.0 T MRI devices equipped with multichannel surface coils to support accelerated acquisitions with parallel imaging, T1-weighted, 2D gradient-echo, dynamic acquisition of perfusion with at least 3 slices per heartbeat. Gadobutrol injection was administered intravenously at a rate of ~4 mL/second as two separate bolus injections (0.05 mmol/kg each), the first at peak pharmacologic stress (~3 minutes after start of ongoing adenosine infusion, or immediately after completion of regadenoson administration, at approved doses). No additional gadobutrol injection was administered for LGE imaging. Images were read by three independent readers blinded to clinical information. Reader detection of CAD depended on visually detecting defective perfusion or scar on gadobutrol injection CMRI (stress, rest, LGE) imaging. Quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) was used to measure intraluminal narrowing and served as the standard of reference (SoR). Computed tomographic angiography (CTA) was used as the SoR if disease could be unequivocally excluded, and no coronary angiography (CA) was available. The left ventricular myocardium was divided into six regions. Readers provided per-region (CMRI, CTA) and per-artery (QCA) interpretations for each subject. Subject-level endpoints reflected each subject’s most abnormal localized finding. The sensitivity results for gadobutrol injection CMRI to detect CAD defined as either maximum stenosis ≥50% or ≥70% by QCA are presented in Table 12. For each reader, sensitivity of gadobutrol injection CMRI larger than 60% can be concluded if the lower 95% confidence limit of the sensitivity estimate exceeds the pre-specified threshold of 60%.

For each reader, specificity of gadobutrol injection CMRI larger than 55% can be concluded if the lower 95% confidence limit of the specificity estimate exceeds the pre-specified threshold of 55%. Table 13: Specificity of Gadobutrol Injection-CMRI for Exclusion of CAD in Patients with Maximum Stenosis Stenosis determined by Quantitative Coronary Angiography (QCA). of ≥50% and ≥70% Study E Study F ≥50% N=235 ≥70% N=268 ≥50% N=238 ≥70% N=283 Reader 1 CMRI images were assessed by six independent blinded readers, three in each study. 85 ( 80 , 89) The bolded value represents the lower limit of the 95% confidence interval, which is compared to a pre-specified threshold of 55% for evaluation of specificity. 83 ( 78 , 87) 85 ( 80 , 90) 82 ( 77 , 86) Reader 2 92 ( 88 , 95) 91 ( 87 , 94) 89 ( 84 , 92) 87 ( 83 , 91) Reader 3 92 ( 88 , 95) 91 ( 87 , 94) 90 ( 85 , 93) 87 ( 82 , 91) In Study E, among the 33 patients with maximum stenosis by QCA between 50% and <70%, the proportion of gadobutrol injection-CMRI positive detections of CAD ranged from 15% to 33%. In Study F, among the 45 patients with maximum stenosis by QCA between 50% and <70%, the proportion of gadobutrol-CMRI positive detections of CAD ranged from 20% to 35%. The results of gadobutrol injection-CMRI reads to detect CAD in patients with maximum stenosis between 50% and <70% are summarized in Table 14. Table 14: Gadobutrol Injection-CMRI Detection of CAD in Patients with Maximum Stenosis Stenosis determined by Quantitative Coronary Arteriography (QCA). Between 50% and <70% Study E (n=33) Study F (n=45) Gadobutrol Injection-CMRI positive Gadobutrol Injection-CMRI positive Reader 1 CMRI images were assessed by six independent blinded readers, three in each study. 11 (33%) 16 (35%) Reader 2 5 (15%) 9 (20%) Reader 3 6 (18%) 12 (26%) Left Mainstem Stenosis (LMS) The studies did not include sufficient numbers of subjects to characterize the performance of gadobutrol injection CMRI for detection of LMS, a subgroup at high risk from false negative reads. In Studies E and F, only three subjects had isolated LMS stenosis >50%. In two of the three cases, the CMRI was interpreted as normal by at least two of the three readers (false negative). Sixteen subjects had LMS stenosis >50% (including subjects with isolated LMS stenosis and subjects with LMS stenosis in addition to stenoses elsewhere). In five of these sixteen cases, the CMR was interpreted as normal by at least two of the three readers (false negative).

8.5 Geriatric Use In clinical studies of gadobutrol injection, 1,377 patients were 65 years of age and over, while 104 patients were 80 years of age and over. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these subjects and younger subjects, and other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. In general, use of gadobutrol injection in elderly patients should be cautious, reflecting the greater frequency of impaired renal function and concomitant disease or other drug therapy. No dose adjustment according to age is necessary in this population.

8.4 Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of gadobutrol injection have been established in pediatric patients, including term neonates, for use with MRI to detect and visualize areas with disrupted blood brain barrier and/or abnormal vascularity of the central nervous system and for use in MRA to evaluate known or suspected supra-aortic or renal artery disease. Use of gadobutrol injection in these indications is supported by adequate and well-controlled studies in adults and supportive imaging data in two studies in 135 patients 2 to less than 18 years of age and 44 patients less than 2 years of age with CNS and non-CNS lesions, and pharmacokinetic data in 130 patients 2 to less than 18 years of age and 43 patients less than 2 years of age, including term neonates [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 ) and Clinical Studies ( 14.1 )] . The frequency, type, and severity of adverse reactions in pediatric patients were similar to adverse reactions in adults [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )] . No dose adjustment according to age is necessary in pediatric patients [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1 ), Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 ), and Clinical Studies ( 14.1 )] . The safety and effectiveness of gadobutrol injection have not been established in preterm neonates for any indication or in pediatric patients of any age for use with MRI to assess the presence and extent of malignant breast disease, or for use in CMRI to assess myocardial perfusion (stress, rest) and late gadolinium enhancement in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). NSF Risk No case of NSF associated with gadobutrol injection or any other GBCA has been identified in pediatric patients ages 6 years and younger. Pharmacokinetic studies suggest that clearance of gadobutrol injection is similar in pediatric patients and adults, including pediatric patients age younger than 2 years. No increased risk factor for NSF has been identified in juvenile animal studies of gadobutrol. Normal estimated GFR (eGFR) is around 30 mL/min/1.73m 2 at birth and increases to mature levels around 1 year of age, reflecting growth in both glomerular function and relative body surface area. Clinical studies in pediatric patients younger than 1 year of age have been conducted in patients with the following minimum eGFR: 31 mL/min/1.73m 2 (age 2 to 7 days), 38 mL/min/1.73m 2 (age 8 to 28 days), 62 mL/min/1.73m 2 (age 1 to 6 months), and 83 mL/min/1.73m 2 (age 6 to 12 months). Juvenile Animal Data Single and repeat-dose toxicity studies in neonatal and juvenile rats did not reveal findings suggestive of a specific risk for use in pediatric patients including term neonates and infants.

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary GBCAs cross the placenta and result in fetal exposure and gadolinium retention. The human data on the association between GBCAs and adverse fetal outcomes are limited and inconclusive (see Data ). In animal reproduction studies, although teratogenicity was not observed, embryolethality was observed in monkeys, rabbits and rats receiving intravenous gadobutrol during organogenesis at doses 8 times and above the recommended human dose. Retardation of embryonal development was observed in rabbits and rats receiving intravenous gadobutrol during organogenesis at doses 8 and 12 times, respectively, the recommended human dose (see Data ). Because of the potential risks of gadolinium to the fetus, use gadobutrol injection only if imaging is essential during pregnancy and cannot be delayed. The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2 to 4% and is 15 to 20%, respectively. Data Human Data Contrast enhancement is visualized in the placenta and fetal tissues after maternal GBCA administration. Cohort studies and case reports on exposure to GBCAs during pregnancy have not reported a clear association between GBCAs and adverse effects in the exposed neonates. However, a retrospective cohort study, comparing pregnant women who had a GBCA MRI to pregnant women who did not have an MRI, reported a higher occurrence of stillbirths and neonatal deaths in the group receiving GBCA MRI. Limitations of this study include a lack of comparison with non-contrast MRI and lack of information about the maternal indication for MRI. Overall, these data preclude a reliable evaluation of the potential risk of adverse fetal outcomes with the use of GBCAs in pregnancy. Animal Data Gadolinium Retention GBCAs administered to pregnant non-human primates (0.1 mmol/kg on gestational days 85 and 135) result in measurable gadolinium concentration in the offspring in bone, brain, skin, liver, kidney, and spleen for at least 7 months. GBCAs administered to pregnant mice (2 mmol/kg daily on gestational days 16 through 19) result in measurable gadolinium concentrations in the pups in bone, brain, kidney, liver, blood, muscle, and spleen at one month postnatal age. Reproductive Toxicology Embryolethality was observed when gadobutrol was administered intravenously to monkeys during organogenesis at doses 8 times the recommended single human dose (based on body surface area); gadobutrol was not maternally toxic or teratogenic at this dose. Embryolethality and retardation of embryonal development also occurred in pregnant rats receiving maternally toxic doses of gadobutrol (≥7.5 mmol/kg body weight; equivalent to 12 times the human dose based on body surface area) and in pregnant rabbits (≥2.5 mmol/kg body weight; equivalent to 8 times the recommended human dose based on body surface area). In rabbits, this finding occurred without evidence of pronounced maternal toxicity and with minimal placental transfer (0.01% of the administered dose detected in the fetuses). Because pregnant animals received repeated daily doses of gadobutrol injection, their overall exposure was significantly higher than that achieved with the standard single dose administered to humans.

Embryolethality and retardation of embryonal development also occurred in pregnant rats receiving maternally toxic doses of gadobutrol (≥7.5 mmol/kg body weight; equivalent to 12 times the human dose based on body surface area) and in pregnant rabbits (≥2.5 mmol/kg body weight; equivalent to 8 times the recommended human dose based on body surface area). In rabbits, this finding occurred without evidence of pronounced maternal toxicity and with minimal placental transfer (0.01% of the administered dose detected in the fetuses). Because pregnant animals received repeated daily doses of gadobutrol injection, their overall exposure was significantly higher than that achieved with the standard single dose administered to humans. 8.2 Lactation Risk Summary There are no data on the presence of gadobutrol in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. However, published lactation data on other GBCAs indicate that 0.01 to 0.04% of the maternal gadolinium dose is present in breast milk and there is limited GBCA gastrointestinal absorption in the breast-fed infant. Gadobutrol is present in rat milk (see Data ). The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for gadobutrol injection and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from gadobutrol injection or from the underlying maternal condition. Data In lactating rats receiving 0.5 mmol/kg of intravenous [153Gd]-gadobutrol, 0.01% of the total administered radioactivity was transferred to the pup via maternal milk within 3 hours after administration, and the gastrointestinal absorption is poor (approximately 5% of the dose orally administered was excreted in the urine). 8.4 Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of gadobutrol injection have been established in pediatric patients, including term neonates, for use with MRI to detect and visualize areas with disrupted blood brain barrier and/or abnormal vascularity of the central nervous system and for use in MRA to evaluate known or suspected supra-aortic or renal artery disease. Use of gadobutrol injection in these indications is supported by adequate and well-controlled studies in adults and supportive imaging data in two studies in 135 patients 2 to less than 18 years of age and 44 patients less than 2 years of age with CNS and non-CNS lesions, and pharmacokinetic data in 130 patients 2 to less than 18 years of age and 43 patients less than 2 years of age, including term neonates [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 ) and Clinical Studies ( 14.1 )] . The frequency, type, and severity of adverse reactions in pediatric patients were similar to adverse reactions in adults [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )] . No dose adjustment according to age is necessary in pediatric patients [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1 ), Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 ), and Clinical Studies ( 14.1 )] . The safety and effectiveness of gadobutrol injection have not been established in preterm neonates for any indication or in pediatric patients of any age for use with MRI to assess the presence and extent of malignant breast disease, or for use in CMRI to assess myocardial perfusion (stress, rest) and late gadolinium enhancement in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). NSF Risk No case of NSF associated with gadobutrol injection or any other GBCA has been identified in pediatric patients ages 6 years and younger. Pharmacokinetic studies suggest that clearance of gadobutrol injection is similar in pediatric patients and adults, including pediatric patients age younger than 2 years. No increased risk factor for NSF has been identified in juvenile animal studies of gadobutrol. Normal estimated GFR (eGFR) is around 30 mL/min/1.73m 2 at birth and increases to mature levels around 1 year of age, reflecting growth in both glomerular function and relative body surface area. Clinical studies in pediatric patients younger than 1 year of age have been conducted in patients with the following minimum eGFR: 31 mL/min/1.73m 2 (age 2 to 7 days), 38 mL/min/1.73m 2 (age 8 to 28 days), 62 mL/min/1.73m 2 (age 1 to 6 months), and 83 mL/min/1.73m 2 (age 6 to 12 months). Juvenile Animal Data Single and repeat-dose toxicity studies in neonatal and juvenile rats did not reveal findings suggestive of a specific risk for use in pediatric patients including term neonates and infants. 8.5 Geriatric Use In clinical studies of gadobutrol injection, 1,377 patients were 65 years of age and over, while 104 patients were 80 years of age and over. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these subjects and younger subjects, and other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. In general, use of gadobutrol injection in elderly patients should be cautious, reflecting the greater frequency of impaired renal function and concomitant disease or other drug therapy. No dose adjustment according to age is necessary in this population. 8.6 Renal Impairment Prior to administration of gadobutrol injection, screen all patients for renal dysfunction by obtaining a history and/or laboratory tests [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] . No dosage adjustment is recommended for patients with renal impairment. Gadobutrol injection can be removed from the body by hemodialysis [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 ) and Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] .

16 HOW SUPPLIED/STORAGE AND HANDLING 16.1 How Supplied Gadobutrol injection is a sterile, clear and colorless to pale yellow solution containing 604.72 mg gadobutrol per mL (equivalent to 1 mmol gadobutrol) per mL. Gadobutrol injection is supplied in the following sizes: Single-Dose Containers (Vials) 7.5 mL single-dose vials, rubber stoppered in cartons of 1 (NDC 70436-122-52) 7.5 mL single-dose vials, rubber stoppered in cartons of 20 (NDC 70436-122-54) 15 mL single-dose vials, rubber stoppered in cartons of 1 (NDC 70436-122-80) 16.2 Storage and Handling Store at 20° to 25°C (68° to 77°F); excursions permitted to 15° to 30°C (59° to 86°F). [See USP Controlled Room Temperature]. Should freezing occur, gadobutrol injection should be brought to room temperature before use. If allowed to stand at room temperature, gadobutrol injection should return to a clear and colorless to pale yellow solution. Visually inspect gadobutrol injection for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration. Do not use the solution if it is discolored, if particulate matter is present or if the container appears damaged.

WARNING: NEPHROGENIC SYSTEMIC FIBROSIS (NSF) 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. NSF may result in fatal or debilitating fibrosis affecting the skin, muscle and internal organs. The risk for NSF appears highest among patients with: Chronic, severe kidney disease (GFR <30 mL/min/1.73m 2 ), or Acute kidney injury. Screen patients for acute kidney injury and other conditions that may reduce renal function. For patients at risk for chronically reduced renal function (for example, age >60 years, hypertension or diabetes), estimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) through laboratory testing. For patients at highest risk for NSF, do not exceed the recommended gadobutrol injection dose and allow a sufficient period of time for elimination of the drug from the body prior to any re-administration [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] .
