NCT04251130 · ACTIVE NOT RECRUITING

Linking Tau PET to Medial Temporal Lobe Subregions With High Resolution MRI

This study uses a tau PET scan, with a tracer called PI-2620, to look at tau protein in the brain. Researchers compare those images with high-resolution MRI of the memory regions in the temporal lobe. Participants are older adults, some with normal thinking and some with MCI. It is an imaging study, not a treatment trial. No phase was listed.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion Criteria:
* Males and females ≥ 60 years of age.
* Part of the NACC longitudinal cohort (IRB# 068200) of the PMC/ADCC with consensus conference designation of cognitively normal or Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) or Alzheimer's Disease (AD) Possible or Probable.
* NACC longitudinal visit completed or scheduled within 6 months before or after enrollment in this study.
* Women must be post-menopausal or surgically sterile.
* An amyloid PET scan, completed as a part of the NACC protocol (IRB# 825943), must be performed or scheduled within 12 months before or after the [18F]PI-2620 PET scan.
* A brain MRI, completed as a part of NACC protocol (IRB# 068200), must be performed or scheduled within 6 months before or after the [18F]PI-2620 PET scan. Scan should be of adequate research quality, including 3 Tesla and/or 7 Tesla high-resolution imaging of MTL structure.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Have any medical or psychiatric conditions that, in the opinion of the investigator, would compromise the subject's safety or successful participation in the study.
* Have evidence of structural abnormalities such as major stroke or mass on MRI that is likely to interfere with analysis of the PET scan.
* Inability to tolerate or contraindication to imaging procedures in the opinion of an investigator or treating physician.
* Have a history of significant or ongoing alcohol abuse or substance abuse or dependence based on medical record review or self-reported.
The inclusion / exclusion criteria will be ascertained through self-report in conjunction with any medical history available through the participant's medical or research records (EPIC or the ADC database)
