Tokyo, May 20 -- UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN-CTR) received information related to the study (UMIN000061621) titled 'Flutemetamol PET/CT for whoLe-body evalUation of amyloid deposiTion and its systEmic distribution' on May 20.
Study Type:
Interventional
Study Design:
Basic Design - Single arm
Randomization - Non-randomized
Blinding - Open -no one is blinded
Control - Uncontrolled
Primary Sponsor:
Institute - Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine
Condition:
Condition - Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer's Disease
Classification by malignancy - Others
Genomic information - NO
Objective:
Narrative objectives1 - To exploratorily evaluate the distribution and extent of amyloid deposition in whole-body organs, including the brain, using 18F-flutemetamol PET/CT with additional neck-to-knee imaging beyond standard brain acquisition, and to investigate the association between extracranial amyloid deposition, including gastrointestinal involvement, and cerebral amyloid pathology.
Basic objectives2 - Others
Intervention:
Interventions/Control_1 - In addition to standard brain 18F-flutemetamol PET/CT imaging, additional neck-to-knee whole-body PET/CT imaging including low-dose CT will be performed for research purposes. The additional acquisition time is approximately 10 minutes to evaluate amyloid uptake in whole-body organs.
