About this study

Official title: Evaluation of [123I] MNI-168 and SPECT as a Marker of Beta-amyloid Protein Deposition in Subjects With Alzheimer Disease in Comparison to Healthy Subjects

The underlying goal of this study is to assess 123-I MNI-168 SPECT imaging as a tool to detect ß-amyloid deposition in the brain of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) research participants and similarly aged and gender matched healthy subjects.

Read the detailed description

The overall research questions to be addressed by this protocol are as follows:

  • To assess the dynamic uptake and washout of (123I) MNI-168, a potential imaging biomarker for β-amyloid burden in brain, using single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in Alzheimer's (AD) subjects and similarly aged and gender matched healthy controls.
  • To perform blood metabolite characterization of (123I) MNI-168 in healthy and AD subjects to determine the metabolic fate and nature of metabolites in assessment of (123I) MNI-168 as a single photon computed tomography (SPECT) brain imaging agent.
  • To acquire initial safety data following injection of (123I) MNI-168.
  • Obtain test/retest reproducibility information in AD subjects with (123I) MNI-168 based on initial studies.

What participants receive

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

  • I-123-MNI-168Drug

    Subjects will be injected with up to 5 mCi and not to exceed 5.5 mCi (not >10% of 5 mCi limit) of 123-I MNI-168 followed by serial SPECT imaging.

  • 123-I MNI-168Drug

    Subjects will be injected with up to 5 mCi and not to exceed 5.5 mCi (not >10% of 5 mCi limit) of 123-I MNI-168 followed by serial SPECT imaging.

What is being measured

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

  1. To assess the uptake and washout of {I123}MNI-168, a potential imaging biomarker for β-amyloid burden in brain,

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To acquire initial safety data following injection of (123I) MNI-168.

    Measured: 1 year

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted27 Mar 2009 (estimated)
  2. Study startJan 2009
  3. Primary completionDec 2010
  4. Study completionDec 2010

Why it stopped: Assessment of data shows inadequate brain uptake, suggesting the tracer is inadequate as an imaging biomarker of brain amyloid.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing I-123-MNI-168 and 123-I MNI-168 in people with Alzheimer's Disease, run by Institute for Neurodegenerative Disorders at 1 site 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?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 7 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Apr 2019. 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 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 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 was stopped early (reason given: Assessment of data shows inadequate brain uptake, suggesting the tracer is inadequate as an imaging biomarker of brain amyloid.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

To assess the uptake and washout of {I123}MNI-168, a potential imaging biomarker for β-amyloid burden in brain, (time frame: 1 year). 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 3 Apr 2019.
