Neuroinflammation and Cognitive Decline in Alzheimer Disease

Early Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Alzheimer Disease
Interventions
Other: ADAS-Cog evaluation
Registration Number
NCT02377206
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Tours
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the level of neuroinflammation in Alzheimer Disease subject (mild to moderate) estimated with Binding Potential (BP) of \[18F\]DPA-714, and its relationship with the kinetics of cognitive decline over a 24-month follow-up period (as assessed by Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-cognitive subscale (ADAS-Cog) and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores).

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to assess the level of neuroinflammation in Alzheimer Disease subject (mild to moderate) estimated with Binding Potential (BP) of \[18F\]DPA-714 , and its relationship with the kinetics of cognitive decline over a 24-month follow-up period (as assessed by ADAS-Cog and MMSE scores).

(DPA-714 : N,N-diethyl-2-\[4-(2-fluoroethoxy)phenyl\]-5,7-dimethylpyrazolo\[1,5-a\]pyrimidine-3-acetamide)
