This study is designed to assess the usefulness of flortaucipir in Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging for subjects diagnosed with Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD).

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Have had volumetric brain MRI obtained in site's companion protocol within one year of enrollment
  • Can tolerate PET scan procedures

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Have clinically significant cardiac, hepatic, renal, pulmonary, metabolic, or endocrine disturbances that pose potential safety risk
  • Have history of risk factors for Torsades de Pointes (TdP) or taking medication known to cause QT prolongation
  • Have history of drug or alcohol dependence within the last year
  • Are females of childbearing potential who are not surgically sterile, not refraining from sexual activity, or not using reliable contraception
  • Have history of relevant severe drug allergy or hypersensitivity
  • Have received an investigational medication under FDA IND protocol within 30 days of planned imaging session
  • Have received a radiopharmaceutical for imaging/therapy within 24 hours of imaging session
  • Possess PET scan evidence of amyloid deposition
  • Determined by the investigator to be unsuitable for this type of study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Qualitative Evaluation of Flortaucipir PET Scans
Time Frame: baseline scan
Subject scans were visually evaluated by an expert reader into three groups. Advanced Alzheimer's Disease (AD) scan pattern = In either hemisphere, increased neocortical activity in the parietal/precuneus region(s), or frontal region(s) with increased uptake in the posterolateral temporal (PLT), parietal, or occipital region(s). Moderate AD scan pattern = In either hemisphere, increased neocortical activity limited to the PLT or occipital region(s). Not AD scan pattern = No increased neocortical activity, or increased neocortical activity isolated to the mesial temporal, anterolateral temporal, and/or frontal regions.
baseline scan
Quantitative Evaluation of Flortaucipir PET Scans
Time Frame: baseline scan
Standard Uptake Value Ratio (SUVr) using a weighted cortical average (MUBADA), and individual regions. For SUVr, a value of 1 or lower signifies no flortaucipir activity above background, values greater than 1 signify increasing flortaucipir activity in the brain.

General Publications

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (ACTUAL)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (ACTUAL)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (ACTUAL)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
