About this study

In this study, a total of 60 AD patients with Aβ deposition will beenrolled.Qualified subjects will complete PET imaging scan of Tau imaging agent inXuanwuHospital, and each subject will receive three of the following five imaging agents: PI-2620, APN1607, AV1451, RO948 or GTP1.The imaging time interval between the two tracers should be at least 4 days but less than 4 weeks. All PET scans of each subject were completed within 3 months.To compare the different Tau tracers' binding ability (SUVR or Tau distribution change) of the same subject in AD population. Obtain the safety data of each tracer after injection.

Read the detailed description

Patients with AD in prodromal stage, mild or moderate degree, who have stable medical condition and meet the inclusion criteria, do not meet any exclusion criteria, will be eligible for inclusion in this study.

[18F] florbetapir PET imaging will be used to evaluate amyloid deposition during the screening period. If [18F] florbetapir imaging confirmed amyloid deposition based on positive visual reading and SUVR > 1.1, the patient was considered to be amyloid deposition positive.After the subjects enter the group, the comprehensive collection of clinical information, the assessment of cognitive related scale and the collection and detection of biological samples are carried out. Qualified subjects will complete PET imaging scan of Tau imaging agent in Xuanwu Hospital, and each subject will receive three of the following five imaging agents: PI-2620, APN1607, AV1451, RO948 or GTP1. All subjects will sign the tracer related informed consent before PET tracer injection. Imaging will be carried out as detailed in the technical operation manual. PET center staff will closely observe and evaluate adverse events of subjects throughout the process, and allow them to leave the hospital after confirming medical stability. After 48 hours of scanning, the staff will follow up the subjects by telephone to confirm the health status of the subjects and record the information related to adverse events. The imaging time interval between the two tracers should be at least 4 days but less than 4 weeks. All PET scans of each subject were completed within 3 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. To compare the different Tau tracers' binding ability of the same subject in AD population.

    SUVR value was used to compare AD population different Tau targeting tracers, evaluate the tau binding capacity of different Tau tracers in AD population,

    Measured: August 2021 to May 2023

  2. Assessing the potential value of tracers in AD diagnosis

    Comparison of specific regions bound to specific tau tracers in the same subject AD population at each visit

    Measured: August 2021 to May 2023

  3. To compare the different Tau tracers' binding ability of the same subject in AD

    Tau distribution changewas used to compare AD population different Tau targeting tracers, evaluate the tau binding capacity of different Tau tracers in AD population

    Measured: August 2021 to May 2023

  4. Obtain the safety data of each tracer after injection.

    Number of adverse events recorded from baseline to follow-up by CTCAE v4.0

    Measured: August 2021 to May 2023
