NCT00855868

Brief Summary

This study will evaluate the performance characteristics of a novel \[18F\] amyloid detection ligand (18F\]-AV-45) with respect to its ability to distinguish patients with clinically-diagnosed probable Alzheimer's disease from cognitively normal elderly subjects and to independently compare its diagnostic performance characteristics with the ability of \[11C\]PIB to correctly categorize the same subjects. SPECIFIC HYPOTHESES

  1. 1.Individuals with a clinical diagnosis of probable Alzheimer's disease will have increased brain retention of \[18F\]-AV-45 compared to cognitively normal elderly individuals.
  2. 2.There will be no clinically meaningful difference in the amyloid retention performance characteristics of \[18F\]-AV-45 and \[l1C\]PIB.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Differences in Standard Uptake Value Ratio (SUVR) for Frontal Cortex/Cerebellum and Whole Brain/Cerebellum of the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Scan With [18F]-AV-45 for Probable Alzheimer's Disease (AD) Versus Cognitively Normal Subjects.

    Standardized Uptake Value ratio (SUVR) as measured in this study indicates the ratio of tracer uptake in the frontal cortex relative to the cerebellum or the ratio of tracer uptake in the whole brain relative to the cerebellum.
