NCT01028053

Brief Summary

This study will investigate the efficacy of the Flutemetamol (18F) Injection PET tracer in identifying abnormal (18F) flutemetamol uptake patterns which predict the conversion from aMCI to a b-amyloid associated clinically probable Alzheimer's disease.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Hazard Ratio (HR) by PET Scan Readers for Conversion to Probable Alzheimer's Disease Based on Visual Image Interpretation.

    Visual Interpretation of the PET scan by independent readers. Note: The statistic Hazard ratio (HR) is the ratio of the hazard rates in the 2 groups (1 group being normal (negative for amyloid B) and 1 group being abnormal (positive for amyloid B). Under the null hypothesis of equal rates, the HR would be equal to 1. As the HR increases above 1, the chances of being probable Alzheimer's Disease (pAD) also increases. Note: Eight Subjects who withdrew prior to the first Clinical Adjudication Committee (CAC) evaluation are not included in the analysis. (232 - 8 = 224 Subjects included).

    Up to 36 months post flutemetamol administration

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • The of Normal and Abnormal Subjects Who Convert to Probable Alzheimer's Disease (pAD) Within the Follow up Period.

    Up to 36 months post flutemetamol administration.

Study Arms (1)

Flutemetamol (18F) Injection

EXPERIMENTAL

Flutemetamol (18F) Injection

Drug: Flutemetamol (18F) Injection

Interventions

All subjects will receive an i.v. dose of (18F) flutemetamol (less than 10 mg flutemetamol). The nominal activity of a single administration of (18F) flutemetamol will be 185 MBq.

Also known as: Flutemetamol, 18F
Flutemetamol (18F) Injection

Eligibility Criteria

Age60 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • The subject is 60 years old or older.
  • The subject meets the Petersen criteria for amnestic MCI.
  • The subject has a score of less than or equal to 4 on the Modified Hachinski Ischemic Scale.
  • The subject has a MMSE score of 24-30.
  • The subject has a non-contrast MRI examination as part of the screening visit that excludes aMCI arising from structural causes.
  • The subject and/or the subject's legally acceptable representative, if applicable, in accordance with local regulations, has signed and dated an informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • The subject has any significant neurologic disease other than suspected aMCI; such as Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, normal pressure hydrocephalus, brain tumor, supranuclear palsy, seizure disorder, subdural hematoma, multiple sclerosis, or history of significant head trauma followed by persistent neurologic deficits, or known structural brain abnormalities.
  • The subject has one or more aneurysm clips, artificial heart valves, metal implants, embedded metal fragments or pacemakers that would pose a risk during an MRI.
  • The subject has major depression, bipolar disorder, as described in the DSM-IV within the past year.
  • The subject has history of schizophrenia (DSM-IV criteria).
  • The subject has had, within the prior 3 months, psychotic features, agitation or behavioral problems that could lead to protocol compliance issues.
