About this trial

This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration (FTLD) focused on measuring FTLD, FTD

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Members of families with established MAPT mutations, who either have the capacity to consent to participate in the protocol, or else have designated a surrogate/proxy to consent to participate in this study

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Unwillingness to participate
  • Usage of medication which significantly prolongs QT interval
  • Pregnancy or plans for pregnancy within 90 days after participating in study

Sites / Locations

  • Morton A. Kreitchman PET Center

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

18F-AV-1451

Arm Description

Subjects who are microtubule associated protein tau (MAPT) family carriers and non-carriers will receive 18F-AV-1451 by injection, and undergo a Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan, which will then be qualitatively analyzed to examine tau deposition in the brain.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

SUVR of 18F-AV-1451
Regional tau deposition will be measured as standardized uptake value ratio (SUVR) of 18F-AV-1451. SUVR (80-100 min post-injection) for 18F-AV-1451 will be calculated two ways: 1) using cerebellar crus as a reference region, and 2) using the Parametric Estimation of Reference Signal Intensity (PERSI) method to create individual white matter reference regions. Binding in the inferior temporal lobe/cortex was used as the primary outcome.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The study will investigate the ability of a new PET tracer, 18F-AV-1451, to detect depositions of a protein, called tau, in the brains of people with a mutation in the tau gene that causes deposition of the protein, and in people without the mutation. Up to three 18F-AV-1451 scans will be performed (one per year) on control subjects without MAPT mutations, presymptomatic mutation carriers, and symptomatic mutation carriers.
Detailed Description
Approximately 40% of cases of Frontotemporal lobar Degeneration (FTLD) are also associated with abnormal deposition of tau protein. The purpose of this study is to image MAPT mutation carriers and their non-carrier relatives in order to study the use of this tracer as a biomarker in Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration with tau deposition (FTLD-tau).
