Florbetaben as an Amyloid Plaque Marker in Elderly Patients With Focal or Disseminated Superficial Hemosiderosis

Not Applicable
Withdrawn
Conditions
Amyloid Cerebral Angiopathy
Alzheimer Disease
Registration Number
NCT02664571
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nīmes
Brief Summary

The main objective of this study is to compare the distribution of Florbetaben (NEURACEQ: FBB) in the brain in amyloid cerebral angiopathy (ACA) manifested by isolated hemosiderosis in non-demented patients with that observed in healthy subjects, patients with ACA and with lobar hematoma(s) and patients with Alzheimer's dementia without MRI signs in favor of ACA.

Detailed Description

The secondary objectives of this study are to compare among groups:

A. The associated micro-bleeds. B. Associated leukoencephalopathy. C. Contrast observed in lobar Virchow-Robin perivascular spaces. D. Apolipoprotein E genotypes.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
PET scan with Florbetaben: Standardized Uptake Value RatioDay 0
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
On the reference MRI: The presence/absence classification for superficial siderosisDay 0

The classification corresponds to one of the following: absence; focal (involving \< 4 sulci); disseminated (involving 4 or more sulci).

On the reference MRI: the number of lobar hemorrhagesDay 0
On the reference MRI: the absolute quantitative count of microbleedsDay 0
On the reference MRI: The predominant location of microbleedsDay 0
On the reference MRI: the locations of superficial siderosisDay 0

Location is defined as choices from among the following: frontal-right; frontal-left; parietal-right; parietal-left; occipital-right; occipital-left; temporal-right; temporal-left.

On the reference MRI: microbleed count categoryDay 0

The microbleed count category corresponds to one of the following: 0, 1, 2-4, \>4.

On the reference MRI: the locations of lobar hemorrhagesDay 0

Location is defined as choices from among the following: frontal-right; frontal-left; parietal-right; parietal-left; occipital-right; occipital-left; temporal-right; temporal-left.

On the reference MRI: a measure of leukoencephalopathy using the ARWMC scaleDay 0

The age-related white matter changes (ARWMC) rating scale rating only the supratentorial white matter for each frontal, parieto-occipital, and temporal localisation: 0 for no lesions, 1 for focal lesions, 2 for beginning confluence of lesions, and 3 for diffuse involvement of the entire region

Apolipoprotein E genotypeDay 0

Everyone has two copies of the gene so the resulting combination determines your APOE "genotype" as one of the following: E2/E2, E2/E3, E2/E4, E3/E3, E3/E4, or E4/E4.
