Frequently asked questions about DEFINITY

What is DEFINITY used for?

DEFINITY is an investigational small molecule being studied for use in cardiac disease, cardiac catheterization, and chronic exertional compartment syndrome. In cardiac applications, it is being evaluated to improve the accuracy of ejection fraction assessment. It is also being studied as a diagnostic tool for chronic exertional compartment syndrome.

Who makes DEFINITY?

DEFINITY is being developed by Lantheus Holdings, Inc., which trades under the ticker LNTH. The company is conducting clinical trials of DEFINITY in the United States across multiple indications, including cardiac disease and chronic exertional compartment syndrome.

What phase is DEFINITY in?

DEFINITY is in Phase 3 clinical development for cardiac disease, based on completed trials NCT03571672 and NCT03719612. It has also completed Phase 2 trials for cardiac catheterization and chronic exertional compartment syndrome. DEFINITY is investigational and has not been reported as FDA approved.

What clinical trials is DEFINITY in?

DEFINITY has completed four clinical trials in the United States. These include NCT03571672 and NCT03719612, both Phase 3 studies in cardiac disease, NCT03243942, a Phase 2 study in cardiac catheterization, and NCT05247541, a Phase 2 study in chronic exertional compartment syndrome. All trials are completed.

Is DEFINITY the same as SHAPE?

No, DEFINITY is not the same as SHAPE. SHAPE appears in the title of a clinical trial, NCT05247541, which evaluates diagnosing compartment syndrome with SHAPE versus elastography. DEFINITY is the drug being studied in that trial, but SHAPE is a separate diagnostic method or technology.
