Evaluation of Imaging Characteristics of [18F]PI-2620 PET in AD and PSP Patients Using High and Low Specific Activity
- Conditions
- Progressive Supranuclear PalsyAlzheimer Disease
- Interventions
- Drug: [18F]-PI2620
- Registration Number
- NCT04715750
- Lead Sponsor
- Life Molecular Imaging GmbH
- Brief Summary
This is an open-label study without randomisation. All eligible patients will receive two administrations of the investigational imaging agent \[18F\]PI-2620 at a radioactive dose of 185 MBq, one with high specific activity (≤ 5 µg tracer mass dose), another one with low specific activity (40-50 µg tracer mass dose).
- Detailed Description
This is an open-label, single center study to visually assess and quantitatively compare brain PET images obtained after application of \[18F\]PI-2620 with different specific activities: 1) High specific activity (low mass dose): 185 MBq containing a maximum mass dose of ≤5 μg in up to 10 mL and 2) Low specific activity (high mass dose): 185 MBq containing a maximum mass dose of 40-50 μg in up to 10 mL).

Group Intervention Description Tau deposition in the brains of Alzheimer Disease and Progressive Supranuclear Palsy patients [18F]-PI2620 All patients will receive two administrations of \[18F\]PI-2620 at a radioactive dose of 185 MBq, one with high specific activity (≤ 5 µg tracer mass dose), another one with low specific activity (40-50 µg tracer mass dose)
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Comparability of visual assessment of PI-2620 tau PET images obtained after injection of high specific activity and low specific activity in AD and PSP patients. 4-54 days PI-2620 tau PET images obtained with \[18F\]PI-2620 using high specific activity (185 MBq and ≤ 5 µg mass dose) and with \[18F\]PI-2620 using low specific activity (185 MBq and 40-50 µg mass dose) in AD and PSP patients will be visually analyzed. Visual analysis of the tau signal pattern will be compared for high and low specific activity images within the same subject.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of adverse events From injection of [18F]PI-2620 until up to 6 days after injection Safety will be evaluated by collection of Adverse Events.
