Imaging Cardiac Amyloidosis: A Pilot Study Using F-18 Florbetapir Positron Emission Tomography
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating F-18 florbetapir PET for Cardiac Amyloidosis. Completed, enrolled 23 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The primary aim of this pilot study is to determine whether amyloid deposits in the heart can be measured non-invasively by F-18 florbetapir (Trade Name: Amyvid) positron emission tomography (PET) in 30 individuals with documented cardiac amyloidosis. We will also enroll 15 individuals without cardiac amyloidosis to undergo the F-18 florbetapir imaging as a control group. The primary hypothesis of this study is that a specific amyloid binding radiotracer will bind to the myocardial amyloid deposits and help quantify cardiac amyloid burden. A secondary aim of this study is to determine reproducibility of F-18 florbetapir imaging of the myocardium.
