What participants receive

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

  • Florbetapir (18F)Drug

    Also called Florbetapir F 18, florbetapir, Amyvid, 18F-AV-45

    No Florbetapir (18F) will be administered in this study.

Study groups in NCT02029547
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Physician ReadersExperimentalPhysician readers will interpret 60 Amyvid scans using qualitative analysis followed by the use of quantitation. No subjects will be exposed to florbetapir (18F) as part of this study.
Receives: Drug: Florbetapir (18F)

What is being measured

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

  1. Inter Rater Reliability

    Measure of agreement among readers using a binary visual read method (amyloid positive/negative) calculated using Fleiss' kappa. All scans were read in a blinded fashion without access to clinical information.

    Measured: Scan acquired 50-60 minutes post injection

  2. Percent Agreement with Expert Panel

    Individual reader scan results will be compared to the expert panel's consensus rating for each scan.

    Measured: Scan acquired 50-60 minutes post-injection

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in inter reader reliability after application of quantitation software

    Evaluate the percent change in inter reader reliability after implementation of quantitation analysis.

    Measured: Scan acquired 50-60 minutes post injection

  2. Change in agreement with expert panel

    The percent change in individual reader agreement with the expert panel's consensus rating will determined after implementation of quantitation analysis.

    Measured: Scan acquired 50-60 minutes post-injection

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Florbetapir (18F) in people with Alzheimer's Disease, run by Avid Radiopharmaceuticals at 1 site in Japan.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Oct 2014.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 Japan. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Inter Rater Reliability (time frame: Scan acquired 50-60 minutes post injection). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 23 Oct 2014.
