Tau PET Imaging in Atypical Dementias

Phase 1
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Primary Progressive Aphasia With Suspected Alzheimer's Disease
Interventions
Drug: 18F-AV-1451
Device: PET
Registration Number
NCT03283449
Lead Sponsor
University of Chicago
Brief Summary

The goal of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of mapping tau pathology in subjects with Primary Progressive Aphasia, using PET protocol with F-AV-1451 (trade name AV-1451) and to systematically document the extent and location of tau pathology in PPA patients in vivo using the same techniques.
