What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of Adverse events of a single dose of FBB followed by PET scan in individuals at risk of genetic Alzheimer?s disease.

    Measured: At baseline, when FBB-PET is performed.

  2. Proportion of FAD mutation carriers that present positive uptake after FBB-PET through visual examination

    Measured: At baseline, when FBB-PET is performed.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Proportion of FAD mutation carriers presenting standardized uptake value ratios (SUVRs) of FBB-PET higher than 1,4.

    Measured: baseline

  2. Areas of significant difference (p<0,05) in regional SUVR between FAD mutation carriers and non-carriers.

    Measured: baseline

  3. Earliest age of positive FBB-PET in FAD mutation carriers.

    Measured: baseline

  4. Individual cortical areas with positive amyloid deposition at visual or semi-quantitative assessment

    Measured: baseline

Timeline

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

  1. First posted13 Feb 2015 (estimated)
  2. Study startFeb 2015
  3. Primary completionJan 2019
  4. Study completionJan 2019

Why it stopped: On 15 January 2019, the sponsor decided to stop the study prematurely due to lack of patient recruitment because of supply problems with 18 F-Florbetaben.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Florbetaben in people with Alzheimer Disease, run by Judit Pich Martínez at 1 site in Spain.

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 8 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 14 Apr 2021. 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 Spain. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 stopped early (reason given: On 15 January 2019, the sponsor decided to stop the study prematurely due to lack of patient recruitment because of supply problems with 18 F-Florbetaben.). 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?

Incidence of Adverse events of a single dose of FBB followed by PET scan in individuals at risk of genetic Alzheimer?s disease. (time frame: At baseline, when FBB-PET is performed.). 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 14 Apr 2021.
