About this study

Official title: Evaluation of [18F] CFPyPB PET as a Marker of Glycine Transporter-1 (GlyT1) Receptor in Subjects With Parkinson Disease, Alzheimer Disease and Healthy Subjects

The underlying goal of this study is to assess [18F] CFPyPB PET imaging as a tool to evaluate the activity of the GlyT1 receptors in the brain of Parkinson's Disease (PD) and Alzheimer Disease (AD) research participants.

Read the detailed description

Approximately 6 subjects with Parkinson disease, 6 subjects with Alzheimer disease and 20 healthy control subjects will be recruited to participate in this study. All subjects will undergo written informed consent and a screening evaluation including baseline clinical laboratory testing, a baseline physical and neurological evaluation and baseline cognitive evaluations. Subjects will be asked to undergo a bolus injection of [18F] CFPyPB followed by serial PET imaging scans and plasma sampling for measurement of [18F] CFPyPB in plasma (both protein bound and free) over a period of up to 4 hours. The imaging analyses will be performed by an image-processing specialist who will remain masked to the procedures employed with each imaging acquisition. The primary imaging outcome measure will be the brain regional distribution volumes expressed as a brain tissue to plasma ratio of the radioligand, [18F] CFPyPB. Time to the peak uptake and amplitude of the peak uptake will be evaluated for all brain regions and the results for the PD and AD subjects will be compared with the HC subjects.

At least 2 weeks following the initial imaging visit subjects (up to 2 PD subjects, up to 2 AD subjects and up to 5 HC subjects) may be asked to return for a second injection and scanning procedure to evaluate the reproducibility of the imaging measure using this procedure. Subjects may decline participation in the second scan. Subjects will be requested to return for this second scan until enough second scan data is collected to evaluate the imaging outcome measure for reproducibility.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • [18F] CFPyPBDrug

    Each subject will receive a bolus injection targeted to be 5 mCi and not to exceed 5.5 mCi (not >10% of 5 mCi limit) of [18F]CFPyPB or 5 μg of CFPyPB (whichever is greatest).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To assess the dynamic uptake and washout of [18F] CFPyPB

    To assess the dynamic uptake and washout of [18F] CFPyPB, an imaging tracer targeting the glycine transporter-1 (GlyT1) receptor in brain, using positron emission tomography (PET) in subjects with Parkinson disease (PD) Alzheimer disease (AD) and healthy controls (HC).

    Measured: Approximately 2 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Perform blood metabolite characterization of [18F] CFPyPB

    To perform blood metabolite characterization of [18F] CFPyPB in subjects with PD, AD and HC to determine the nature of metabolites in assessment of [18F] CFPyPB as a single positron computed tomography (PET) brain imaging agent.

    Measured: Approximately 2 years

  2. To obtain safety data

    To acquire safety data following injection of [18F] CFPyPB

    Measured: Approximately 2 years

  3. Obtain test/retest reproductibility

    To obtain test/retest reproducibility of quantitative PET outcome measures with [18F] CFPyPB

    Measured: Approximately 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing [18F] CFPyPB in people with Parkinson Disease and Alzheimer Disease, run by Institute for Neurodegenerative Disorders at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Jun 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To assess the dynamic uptake and washout of [18F] CFPyPB (time frame: Approximately 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Jun 2014.
