E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary efficacy objectives of this study are to demonstrate that sensitivity and specificity of gadobutrol-enhanced CMRI exceed pre-specified minimum performance thresholds (MPT) of 60 and 55%, respectively and to show superior sensitivity over unenhanced wall motion CMRI at vasodilator rest/stress for the detection of significant CAD:
Primary objectives (i.e. 3 co-primaries) are to
1) demonstrate that subject-based sensitivity of gadobutrol-enhanced CMRI at vasodilator stress/rest (lower bound of 95% CI) exceeds the predefined minimum performance threshold of 60%;
2) demonstrate that subject-based specificity of gadobutrol-enhanced CMRI at vasodilator stress/rest (lower bound of 95% CI) exceeds the predefined minimum performance threshold of 55%;
3) demonstrate subject-based superior sensitivity of gadobutrol-enhanced CMRI over unenhanced wall motion CMRI.

E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
1) demonstrate that subject-based sensitivity and specificity, of gadobutrol-enhanced CMRI (lower bound of 95% CI) exceed 60% and 55%, respectively.
2) demonstrate subject-based superior sensitivity of gadobutrol-enhanced CMRI compared to unenhanced wall motion CMRI.
3) evaluate coronary territory-based sensitivity and specificity of gadobutrol-enhanced CMRI for localization of CAD;
• for territories LAD and non-LAD;
• additional localization for RCA and LCX;
4) evaluate detection and perfusion pattern of subjects with LMS stenosis;
5) evaluate subject-based sensitivity and specificity of gadobutrol- enhanced CMRI for detection and exclusion of significant CAD separately in 2 subgroups:
-subjects with single-vessel disease and
-subjects with multi-(2- or 3)-vessel disease.
6) assess the confidence of diagnosis for each defined myocardial region for unenhanced wall motion and gadobutrol-enhanced CMRI.
7) confirm the safety profile of gadobutrol in this indication.

|
For each participating EU country, the end of the study according to the EU Clinical trial Directive) will be reached when the last visit of the last subject for all centers in the respective country has occurred. As for this study, the primary outcome will be collected after last patient (or subject) last visit (LPLV), the end of the study as a whole will be the date when the clean database is available. |
