Tau-Biomarker bei Spätpsychose (LOP)
Hallucinations or delusions that occur for the first time in older people with no acute medical problems or mood symptoms may be related to impending dementia. This study aims to confirm this hypothesis using novel blood biomarkers and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging tracers, as well as non-invasive testing.

Detaillierte Beschreibung
Psychotic symptoms that occur in advanced age in the absence of an acute medical condition or prominent mood symptoms can represent the late appearance of primary psychotic disorders such as very late-onset schizophrenia-like psychosis (VLOSP) or delusional disorder, or can presage the appearance of a neurodegenerative condition such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). An episode of non-affective psychosis late in life more than doubles the risk of subsequent neurodegenerative disease, with an average time from psychosis to AD diagnosis of 18 months. The biologic mechanisms responsible for the increased risk of dementia in those who experience psychosis are unclear. One hypothesis is reverse causality, in which inchoate neurodegeneration is responsible for psychotic symptoms that emerge in the absence of traditional cognitive hallmarks of dementia. The psychosis then heralds the inception of illness that will eventuate in cognitive decline. The investigators will utilize neurodegenerative biomarkers in the form of novel PET imaging tracers, plasma immunoassays and non-invasive neurophysiologic measurements to test this hypothesis in a pilot cohort of elderly subjects suffering with psychosis occurring in late-life without dementia for comparison with a cohort of healthy elderly controls (HEC)s who are participating in a study focused on those with dementia.

Studienpopulation
Very late-onset schizophrenia-like psychosis (VLSOP) diagnostic criteria:
VLSOP is a schizophrenia-like condition characterized by the onset of delusions (primarily persecutory but also bizarre delusions) and/or hallucinations (auditory, visual, tactile, or olfactory) after age 60 in the absence of negative symptoms, formal thought disorder, and affective flattening that are common in early-onset schizophrenia.
Delusional disorder diagnostic criteria:
Delusional disorder comprises the presences of non-bizarre delusions including erotomanic, grandiose, jealous, persecutory, or somatic subtypes.
The presence of one (or more) above delusions with a duration of 1 month or longer.
Beschreibung
Inclusion Criteria:
- Male or female, aged 65-85 years.
- Diagnosis of late-onset non-affective primary psychotic disorder consistent with either very late-onset schizophrenia-like psychosis (VLOSP, International Late-Onset Schizophrenia Group consensus criteria, Howard et al., 2000) or delusional disorder (DSM-5 criteria)
- Caregiver available to provide collateral history and participation in informant-based ratings (NPI,CDR)
- Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) score of 0 or 0.5.
- Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score ≥ 24 and at the screening visit.
- Normal memory function (to rule-out mild cognitive impairment, MCI) documented by scoring within 1.5 SD range in education adjusted norms of the Logical Memory II subscale
- Ability to hear 500, 1000 and 1500 Hz bilaterally on a hearing evaluation (hearing aids permitted).
Exclusion Criteria:
- Participants with affective and psychotic disorders including bipolar disorder, schizoaffective disorder, active major depression; insulin dependent type 2 diabetes; a history of CVD; a history of epilepsy; a history of TBI with greater than 15 minutes of loss of consciousness; a movement disorder including Parkinson's disease; stroke; autoimmune disease affecting the CNS; substance abuse disorder; or active delirium/encephalopathy.
- Evidence of a clinically relevant neurological disorder
- Modified Hachinski ischemia score of more than 4.
- History of alcoholism or drug dependency/abuse within the last 5 years before screening.
- Presence of metal implants such as pacemakers, ear implants, internal bullet fragments or shrapnel.
- Inability to lie flat for 1 hour approximately.
- Hearing impairment as evidenced by the inability to hear 500, 1000 and 1500 Hz bilaterally on a hearing evaluation. Subjects with hearing aids will be allowed to participate if they meet minimum hearing requirements.

Beschreibung des IPD-Plans
Raw imaging files and neurocognitive data will be made available to other researchers via the NIMH Data Repository. Demographic data including age, sex, ethnicity and diagnosis will be shared. Information needed to generate a global unique identifier for the NIMH Data Archive (NDA) will be collected for each subject. In addition to the subject level data described above, all PET and MRI designs and experiment definitions, and study protocols will be deposited in the NDA.
IPD-Sharing-Zeitrahmen
Data will be made available as soon as possible or at the time of associated publication, whichever comes first.
IPD-Sharing-Zugriffskriterien
To request access of the data, researchers will use the standard processes at NDA, and the NDA Data Access Committee will decide which requests to grant. The standard NDA data access process allows access for one year and is renewable.
