Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Qualitative Evaluation of Flortaucipir PET Scans

    Subject scans were visually evaluated by an expert reader into three groups. Advanced Alzheimer's Disease (AD) scan pattern = In either hemisphere, increased neocortical activity in the parietal/precuneus region(s), or frontal region(s) with increased uptake in the posterolateral temporal (PLT), parietal, or occipital region(s). Moderate AD scan pattern = In either hemisphere, increased neocortical activity limited to the PLT or occipital region(s). Not AD scan pattern = No increased neocortical activity, or increased neocortical activity isolated to the mesial temporal, anterolateral temporal, and/or frontal regions.

    baseline scan

  • Quantitative Evaluation of Flortaucipir PET Scans

    Standard Uptake Value Ratio (SUVr) using a weighted cortical average (MUBADA), and individual regions. For SUVr, a value of 1 or lower signifies no flortaucipir activity above background, values greater than 1 signify increasing flortaucipir activity in the brain.

FTD Subjects

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects diagnosed by dementia specialist with a clinical Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) syndrome and expected tau or tar DNA binding protein (TDP)-43 pathology receiving a flortaucipir PET scan

Drug: Flortaucipir F18Procedure: Brain PET scan

Interventions

370 megabecquerel (MBq)(10 millicurie \[mCi\]) injection, single dose

Also known as: 18F-AV-1451, [F-18]T807, LY3191748, Tauvid

FTD Subjects

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Subjects diagnosed by a dementia specialist with symptomatic clinical syndromes with expected Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) pathology will be enrolled. Clinical syndromes associated with FTD pathology include: behavioral-variant FTD, FTD with motor-neuron disease, non-fluent/agrammatic and semantic variants of primary progressive aphasia, progressive supranuclear palsy syndrome and corticobasal syndrome.
  • Have provided informed consent or have a legally authorized (LAR) provide consent for study procedures
  • Have had volumetric brain MRI obtained in site's companion protocol within one year of enrollment
  • Can tolerate PET scan procedures

You may not qualify if:

  • Have clinically significant cardiac, hepatic, renal, pulmonary, metabolic, or endocrine disturbances that pose potential safety risk
  • Have history of risk factors for Torsades de Pointes (TdP) or taking medication known to cause QT prolongation
  • Have history of drug or alcohol dependence within the last year
  • Are females of childbearing potential who are not surgically sterile, not refraining from sexual activity, or not using reliable contraception
  • Have history of relevant severe drug allergy or hypersensitivity
  • Have received an investigational medication under FDA IND protocol within 30 days of planned imaging session
  • Have received a radiopharmaceutical for imaging/therapy within 24 hours of imaging session
  • Possess PET scan evidence of amyloid deposition
  • Determined by the investigator to be unsuitable for this type of study
