Cause or Effect: Untangling the Relationship With Amyloid and Tau Deposits to Cognitive Decline and Alzheimer's Disease in the Dallas Lifespan Brain Study
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating [18F]AV-1451 and Positron Emission Tomography for Alzheimer Disease and Cognitive Decline. Completed, enrolled 125 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The investigators will conduct tau positron emission tomography (PET) scans on 125 adults using the radiopharmaceutical Flortaucipir F18 (\[18F\]AV-1451). This will allow the investigators to determine tau deposition across adults of different ages and assess the relationship of current tau burden to cognitive function and amyloid deposition collected over the previous 10-year interval.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
The subject will receive up to a target dose of 370 megabecquerel (MBq) as a single IV bolus of \[18F\]AV-1451.
Approximately 80 minutes after injection subjects will be placed in the UTSW PET/CT scanner for a 20-minute brain scan.
