Trial summary

The study is carried out in order to investigate if [18F]AZD4694, compared to [11C]AZD2184, is a suitable PET ligand for in vivo imaging of Aβ amyloid depositions in the human brain. In the study the two PET ligands will be examined in both healthy volunteers and patients with Alzheimer's Disease. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Open Label Positron Emission Tomography Study With [18F]AZD4694 and [11C]AZD2184, Candidate Radioligands for AB Amyloid, to Determine and Compare in Vivo Brain Uptake and Distribution in Healthy Volunteers and Patients With Alzheimer's Disease

The study is carried out in order to investigate if [18F]AZD4694, compared to [11C]AZD2184, is a suitable PET ligand for in vivo imaging of Aβ amyloid depositions in the human brain. In the study the two PET ligands will be examined in both healthy volunteers and patients with Alzheimer's Disease. A whole body dosimetry scanning will be performed in 6 healthy volunteers to obtain human data to estimate a safe dose.

What is being measured

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

  1. Positron emission tomography using the radioligand [18F]AZD4694 and/or [11C]AZD2184

    Measured: Radioligand [18F]AZD4694: 1-2 PET examinations for AD patients and 1 PET examination for healthy volunteers. Whole body dosimetri for some healthy volunteers. - Radioligand [11C]AZD2184: 1 PET for AD patients respective healthy volunteers.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To assess safety and tolerability of [18F]AZD4694 and the study procedures, by assessment of adverse events, vital signs, and laboratory variables.

    Measured: 3-4 visits with tests for AD patients respective healthy volunteers. All tests are not done at every visit.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing radioligand [18F]AZD4694 and radioligand [11C]AZD2184 in people with Alzheimer's Disease, run by AstraZeneca at 2 sites in Sweden.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Oct 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Sweden. 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?

Positron emission tomography using the radioligand [18F]AZD4694 and/or [11C]AZD2184 (time frame: Radioligand [18F]AZD4694: 1-2 PET examinations for AD patients and 1 PET examination for healthy volunteers. Whole body dosimetri for some healthy volunteers. - Radioligand [11C]AZD2184: 1 PET for AD patients respective healthy volunteers.). 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 2009.
