Safety and Efficacy of Positron Emission Tomography Imaging With MNI-513

Alzheimer Disease Clinical Trial

Official title: An Exploratory, Open-label, Non-randomized Phase 0 Study to Evaluate Efficacy & Safety of MNI-513 Positron Emission Tomography for Detection/Exclusion of Cerebral Amyloid Beta in Patients w/ Alzheimer Disease Compared to Healthy Volunteers

Status Terminated

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of MNI-513 positron emission tomography (PET) for detection/exclusion of cerebral amyloid beta in patients with Alzheimer's disease compared to healthy volunteers.

Clinical Trial Description

To determine diagnostic efficacy of the MNI-513 PET scans in differentiating between patients with probable AD and HVs on the basis of neocortical tracer binding pattern, the PET scans will be visually assessed by a nuclear physician experienced in the field of neuro-imaging. PET scan findings will be classified either as abnormal (i.e., significant neocortical uptake in predefined regions) or as normal (i.e. no significant neocortical uptake in predefined regions). The nuclear physician will be unaware of the clinical diagnosis. ;
