An Open-Label, Multicenter, Phase 3 Study Evaluating the Prognostic Usefulness of I-123 mIBG Scintigraphy for Identifying Subjects With Heart Failure Who Will Experience an Adverse Cardiac Event

The study is designed to study the utility of 123I-mIBG as a diagnostic imaging agent to
predict cardiac outcome in subjects with heart failure and in comparison to subjects without
cardiovascular disease.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Study subjects must be adults with an established diagnosis of heart failure (New York
Heart Association Class II or III) and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction
(LVEF) (≤ 35%) or be healthy volunteers without heart disease.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Healthy volunteers were not eligible if they had a history of diabetes mellitus,
signs/symptoms of neurological disease (e.g., Parkinson's Disease, multiple system
atrophy, Parkinsonian syndromes), or other diseases known to affect the sympathetic
nervous system.

- Subjects with New York Heart Association Class I or IV heart failure were not
eligible.

- Subjects were excluded if they had previously received 123I-mIBG or 131I-mIBG or
participated in a clinical study involving investigational medicinal product or
devices within 30 days.

- Subjects that had a pacemaker or had received defibrillation, anti-tachycardia pacing
or cardioversion to treat a previous arrhythmic event or had an ICD inserted within 30
days before study entry are not eligible.
