Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 30 to 100 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Enrolled in PPMI Clinical protocol
  • Able to provide informed consent
  • Male or Female (Females must meet additional criteria specified below, as applicable)
  • Females must be of non-childbearing potential or using a highly effective method of birth control 14 days prior to until at least 24 hours after injection of [18F]PI-2620.
  • Non-childbearing potential is defined as a female that must be either postmenopausal (no menses for at least 12 months prior to PET scan) or surgically sterile (bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy or hysterectomy).
  • Highly effective method of birth control is defined as practicing at least one of the following: A birth control method that results in a less than 1% per year failure rate when used consistently and correctly, such as oral contraceptives for at least 3 months prior to injection, an intrauterine device (IUD) for at least 2 months prior to injection, or barrier methods, e.g., diaphragm or combination condom and spermicide. Periodic abstinence (e.g. calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) is not acceptable.
  • Females of childbearing potential must not be pregnant, breastfeeding or lactating.
  • Females of childbearing potential have a negative urine pregnancy test prior to [18F]PI-2620 injection on day of PET scan.

Who cannot join

  • Exposure to an effective radiation dose of 50 mSv, which would be above the acceptable annual limit established by the US Federal Guidelines during the past year.
  • Any other medical or psychiatric condition or lab abnormality, which in the opinion of the Site Investigator might preclude participation.

About this study

Official title: Assessment of Brain Tau Burden in Participants With Parkinson's Disease in the PPMI Study (PPMI Tau PET Imaging)

The Assessment of Brain Tau Burden in Participants with Parkinson's Disease in the PPMI Study (PPMI Tau PET Imaging) will evaluate if [18F] PI-2620 facilitates better understanding of Tau deposition in the brain in Parkinson's disease (PD).

Read the detailed description

The Assessment of Brain Tau Burden in Participants with Parkinson's Disease in the PPMI Study (PPMI Tau PET Imaging) is a companion study to the Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative Clinical protocol (PPMI-002; NCT04477785). After consenting to the PPMI Clinical protocol, participants interested in completing an additional scan under this study will be asked to complete consent, additional activities, and one [18F]PI-2620 PET imaging scan as part of this study. Enrollment in the PPMI Tau PET Imaging companion study will facilitate comparison of tau deposition to clinical, imaging, blood and CSF tau already acquired in these PPMI participants under the PPMI Clinical protocol. The primary goal of this imaging study is to test whether positron emission tomography (PET) with [18F] PI-2620 can visualize in vivo brain tau deposition in participants with PD. The secondary goal is to evaluate tau deposition in PD LRRK2 mutation carriers given recent data that tau pathology may be present in those individuals.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing [18F] PI-2620 in people with Parkinson Disease, run by Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research 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 8 inclusion and 2 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 21 Apr 2023. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Determination of [18F]PI-2620 standard uptake value ratio (SUVR) targeting brain tau deposition in comparison between Parkinson disease and healthy control participants. (time frame: 90 minutes). 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 21 Apr 2023.
