Guerbet announces marketing authorisation approval of Elucirem (Gadopiclenol) in the European Union

  • The marketing authorisation (MA) for Elucirem (Gadopiclenol) was granted to Guerbet by the European Commission based on the positive opinion of the European Medicines Agency's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) dated 12 October 2023.
  • For the indications approved in the context of this MA, a MRI examination with Elucirem requires half the dose of gadolinium compared to that required with existing nonspecific contrast agents, thus answering a major concern of practitioners about gadolinium exposure.[1],[2],[3]
  • Invented, designed and manufactured by Guerbet, Elucirem was approved by the FDA in September 2022. It is produced in France and in the USA. It will be marketed by Guerbet in the European Union in the following forms: vials and prefilled syringes.

VILLEPINTE, France, Dec. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Guerbet, global leader in contrast products for medical imaging, announced today that the European Commission has approved the marketing in the European Union (EU) of Elucirem (Gadopiclenol), a macrocyclic gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA), for use in contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Born of Guerbet innovation, Elucirem (Gadopiclenol) is the gadolinium-based contrast agent with the highest relaxivity, in comparison to other available gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCA). In the European Union, Elucirem is indicated in adults and children aged 2 years and older for contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to improve detection and visualization of pathologies with disruption of the blood-brain-barrier (BBB) and/or abnormal vascularity of:

  • the brain, spine, and associated tissues of the central nervous system (CNS);
  • the liver, kidney, pancreas, breast, lung, prostate, and musculoskeletal system.

"Elucirem is the first half-dose nonspecific gadolinium-based contrast agent. European radiologists will be able to perform MR examinations with half the conventional dose and thus reduce exposure to gadolinium, particularly in persons requiring repeated examinations," explains Philippe Bourrinet, Vice-President Development, Medical & Regulatory Affairs and Guerbet Group Responsible Pharmacist.

The efficacy and safety of Gadopiclenol were evaluated in the context of Guerbet's clinical development plan designed to obtain marketing authorisations worldwide. To date, the European Commission is the second authority to approve Elucirem, and evaluation of the dossier is on-going in other countries.

Elucirem is produced in France and in the USA. The industrial investment amounts to 22.5 million euros over the past five years. Gadopiclenol active pharmaceutical ingredient and its starting material are manufactured for the USA and Europe on the French sites of Marans (Charente-Maritime) and Lanester (Morbihan). Elucirem finished product is then filled in vials at the Aulnay-sous-Bois site (Seine-Saint-Denis, France) for all European countries. Vials for the USA and prefilled syringes for the American and European markets are filled on the Raleigh (USA) site.

"After its approval by the FDA for the American market, the European marketing authorisation for Elucirem reinforces our strategic perspective: combining medical innovation and environmental commitment. This authorisation is ground-breaking for Medical Imaging in Europe," concludes David Hale, Guerbet CEO.

About Gadopiclenol

Gadopiclenol, initially invented by Guerbet, with subsequent contribution of Bracco IP, is a new macrocyclic gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA) with high relaxivity.

About the Guerbet / Bracco Imaging Collaboration

Bracco Imaging and Guerbet in December 2021 entered a worldwide collaboration on Gadopiclenol manufacturing and research and development activities. Gadopiclenol will be commercialized independently under separate brands. Both Guerbet and Bracco Imaging each own valuable intellectual property on Gadopiclenol. Furthermore, after an agreed transition period when Guerbet manufactures Gadopiclenol for both Guerbet and Bracco, both companies will manufacture the Gadopiclenol active ingredient and finished product.

The strategic collaboration is expected to accelerate access to Gadopiclenol and deliver innovation, as well as better care to patients and caregivers alike.

Sondersituation: Vervielfachungschance bei diesen Goldaktien

Der Goldpreis haussiert und schwingt sich von Hoch zu Hoch. Getrieben von geopolitischen Unsicherheiten sowie der Aussicht auf eine lockere Geldpolitik der FED gehen Experten aktuell von weiter steigenden Notierungen bis sogar in den Bereich von 3.000 US-Dollar je Unze Gold aus.

Im Schatten des Basispreises notieren Goldproduzenten aus der zweiten Reihe sowie Explorationsunternehmen noch weit weg von ihren historischen Höchstständen entfernt und bieten dadurch erhebliches Aufholpotential.
