Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Subjects who meet all of the following criteria are eligible to enroll in this study:

  1. Male or female subjects at least 18 years of age;
  2. Subjects who sign an IRB approved informed consent prior to any study procedures. Where subjects are deemed incapable of informed consent, a legally authorized representative may provide consent, with the subject's documented assent; and
  3. Subjects who in the opinion of the investigator can tolerate the PET scan procedures.

Subjects will be excluded from enrollment if they:

  1. Have clinically significant hepatic, renal, pulmonary, metabolic, or endocrine disturbances as indicated by history, which in the opinion of the investigator might pose a potential safety risk to the subject;
  2. Have current clinically significant cardiovascular disease. Clinically significant cardiovascular disease usually includes one or more of the following:
  • cardiac surgery or myocardial infarction within the last 4 weeks;
  • unstable angina;
  • acute decompensated congestive heart failure or class IV heart failure;
  • current significant cardiac arrhythmia or conduction disturbance, particularly those resulting in ventricular fibrillation, or causing syncope, or near syncope;
  • uncontrolled high blood pressure; or
  • QTc > 450 msec (by history or for patients with cardiac disease by screening evaluation in companion study) Before enrolling a patient with any of the above conditions, the investigator must have performed a cardiac evaluation and obtain permission from the sponsor.
  1. Have a history of drug or alcohol abuse within the last year, or prior prolonged history of abuse;
  2. Women of childbearing potential who are not surgically sterile, not refraining from sexual activity or not using reliable methods of contraception. Women of childbearing potential must not be pregnant (negative urine beta-hCG at the time of screening and negative urine beta-hCG on the day of imaging) or breastfeeding at screening. Women must avoid becoming pregnant, and must agree to refrain from sexual activity or to use reliable contraceptive methods for 24 hours following administration of Florbetapir F 18 Injection ( such as oral contraceptives for at least three months or an IUD for at least two months prior to the start of the screening visit, or various barrier methods, e.g., diaphragm or combination condom and spermicide);
  3. Have a history of relevant severe drug allergy or hypersensitivity (Relevant severe drug allergies should be determined by the PI, and any questions about a subject's eligibility can be directed to Avid. If a subject has a history of severe drug allergies, it may be dangerous for them to participate in a study);
  4. Are patients who have received an investigational medication under an FDA IND protocol within the last 30 days. Additionally, the time between the last dose of the previous experimental medication and enrollment (completion of screening assessments) must be at least equal to 5 times the terminal half-life of the previous experimental medication. Patients who have ever participated in an experimental study with an amyloid targeting therapy (e.g., immunotherapy, secretase inhibitor) may not be enrolled without prior sponsor approval unless it can be demonstrated that the patient received only placebo in the course of the trial;
  5. Are patients with current clinically significant unstable medical comorbidities, as indicated by history or physical exam, that pose a potential safety risk to the subject.
  6. Are patients who have received a radiopharmaceutical for imaging or therapy within the past 24 hours prior to the imaging session for this study. If another radiotracer is required in the companion protocol, patients may be able to receive a radiopharmaceutical for imaging or therapy within the 24 hours prior to the imaging session with prior sponsor approval and at the discretion of the investigator.; and
  7. Are patients who, in the opinion of the investigator, are otherwise unsuitable for a study of this type.

If at the time of enrollment subjects do not meet all eligibility criteria, the subjects may still be enrolled if documentation is provided demonstrating that the subject will meet all criteria at the time of the first imaging procedure.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Florbetapir F 18 in people with Alzheimer Disease and Mild Cognitive Impairment, run by Avid Radiopharmaceuticals at 26 sites 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 18 Jul 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 26 sites 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 14 Jun 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants Experiencing Treatment-emergent Adverse Events Considered Related to Florbetapir Administration (time frame: 48 hours). 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 18 Jul 2018.
