PHASE1
Brief Summary
The underlying goal of this study is to assess PBR-111 positron emission tomography (PET) imaging as a tool to detect microglial activation in the brain of Alzheimer disease (AD) research participants...
Detailed Description
This is a phase 1, open-label, single-center, non-randomized single dose study to assess the kinetics, clearance and cerebral distribution of PBR-111 positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in dete...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- INCLUSION CRITERIA: Alzheimer Disease (AD)

- Clinical Dementia Rating Scale score ≤ 2.
- Modified Hachinski Ischemia Scale score of ≤ 4.
- MRI brain scan findings that do not reveal changes indicative of stroke and/or generalized cerebrovascular disease (e.g., the ARWMC scale) changes limited to: a white matter lesion score of 0 or 1 or 2 and a basal ganglia score of 0 or 1)
- has a caregiver willing and able to attend all study visits and perform the psychometric tests requiring the presence of a caregiver
- For females, non-child bearing potential or a negative urine or blood pregnancy test on day of \[18F\]-PBR111 injection.
- EXCLUSION CRITERIA: Alzheimer Disease (AD)
- History of significant cerebrovascular disease.
- Clinically significant abnormal laboratory value and/or clinically significant unstable medical or psychiatric illness
- Evidence of clinically significant gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, hepatic, renal, hematological, neoplastic, endocrine, neurological, immunodeficiency, pulmonary, or other disorder or disease.
- Pregnancy
- Contraindication to MRI examination, e.g. metal implants or phobia as determined by the onsite radiologist performing the scan
- History of exposure to any radiation \>15 mSv/year (e.g. occupational or radiation therapy)
- Receiving drug therapy or other treatment that is known to lead to greatly fluctuating values of the hematological or chemical laboratory parameters or to severe side effects (e.g. chemotherapy)
- Received anti-amyloid drug therapy.
- INCLUSION CRITERIA: Healthy Volunteer (HV)
- The participant is 18 years or older, with at least 4 subjects ≥50 years.
- Written informed consent is obtained.
- Negative history of neurological or psychiatric illness based on evaluation by a research physician.
- Has no evidence of cognitive impairment as indicated by a clinical dementia rating (CDR, \[Hughes et al. 1993\]) score of 0 (zero) and a score of ≥ 28 in the Mini-Mental Status Examination (MMSE, \[Folstein et al. 1975\]) Clinical Dementia Rating score = 0.
- has MRI brain scan that has been judged as "normal (age- appropriate)" including ARWMC scale \[Wahlund et al. 2001\] scores supporting the lack of cerebrovascular disease (e.g., a white matter lesion score of 0 or 1 or 2 and a basal ganglia score of 0 or 1) and a Scheltens scale \[Scheltens et al. 1992\] verifying the lack of cerebral atrophy (e.g. bilateral temporal lobe atrophy visual score of 0 or 1)
- For females, non-child bearing potential a negative urine or blood pregnancy test on day of \[18F\]-PBR-111 injection.
- EXCLUSION CRITERIA: Healthy Volunteer (HV)
- History of significant cerebrovascular disease.
- Clinically significant abnormal laboratory value and/or clinically significant unstable medical or psychiatric illness
- Evidence of clinically significant gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, hepatic, renal, hematological, neoplastic, endocrine, neurological, immunodeficiency, pulmonary, or other disorder or disease.
- Pregnancy
- Contraindication to MRI examination, e.g. metal implants or phobia as determined by the on-site radiologist performing the scan
- History of exposure to any radiation \>15 mSv/year (e.g. occupational or radiation therapy)
- Receiving drug therapy or other treatment that is known to lead to greatly fluctuating values of the hematological or chemical laboratory parameters or to severe side effects (e.g. chemotherapy)
