About this study
This clinical research, aims to investigate the uptake of [18F]FBFP, a Sigma-1 receptor (Sig 1R) PET imaging agent, in stroke participants, compare differences with healthy controls, and evaluate its diagnostic efficacy, providing objective basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
The study will recruit 30 stroke participants (with specific inclusion criteria for unilateral ICA stenosis cases) and 20 gender- and age-matched healthy controls from January 2025 to December 2026. Exclusion criteria cover various neurological and systemic diseases that may affect results, as well as conditions preventing cooperation with examinations.

No intervention measures are involved. Follow-ups will be conducted at 6 and 12 months to collect clinical data and observe neurological symptom progression. Key measurements include clinical information (via questionnaires and scales like NIHSS and mRS) and PET/MR imaging data (analyzed using PMOD software to calculate SUVmean and uptake differences with cerebellar cortex as reference).
Statistical analysis will use SPSS 21.0, applying descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, regression models, ROC curves, etc., with P < 0.05 as significant. Safety evaluation notes PET/MR radiation dose (3-5mSv) is much lower than the safe threshold.
Participant protection includes ethical approval, informed consent, voluntary participation, risk disclosure, no fees for related exams, and privacy protection. The research team and institution have sufficient resources and qualifications, with outputs including a clinical research cohort and a high-quality paper.

Application research of Sigma imaging agent FBFP in stroke
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Heath control | No intervention | Heath control received intravenous injection of [18F]FBFP PET/MR under standardized conditions. |
| Stroke group | Experimental | Stroke patients received intravenous injection of [18F]FBFP PET/MR under standardized conditions. Receives: Diagnostic Test: PET/MR multimodality imaging |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Brain metabolic value
Quantitative detection was performed using an integrated PET/MR scanner. After injecting FBFP at a dose of 1.8 MBq/kg (0.05 mCi/kg), the PET/MR synchronous scan was initiated 60 minutes later and lasted for 30 minutes. Data were collected through a 19-channel head-neck combined coil.
Measured: PET/MR examinationDuring MR examination, PET examination was conducted simultaneously. Follow-up visits were conducted at 6 months and 12 months after the examination, including general clinical data of the patients, clinical symptoms, and clinical score

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Jie Lu, Phd (+86 13309824318, imaginglu@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Brain metabolic value (time frame: PET/MR examinationDuring MR examination, PET examination was conducted simultaneously. Follow-up visits were conducted at 6 months and 12 months after the examination, including general clinical data of the patients, clinical symptoms, and clinical score). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
