Summary

The goal of this study is to assess \[18F\]MNI-777 PET imaging as a tool to detect tau pathology in the brain of individuals who carry a clinical diagnosis of a tauopathy, including: Alzheimer's Disease (AD),Parkinson's disease (PD) Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) and Frontal Temporal Dementia (FTD) and age- and gender-matched healthy subjects.

Conditions

  • Alzheimer's Disease (AD)
  • Parkinson's Disease (PD)
  • Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE)
  • Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP)
  • Frontal Temporal Dementia (FTD)
  • Pick's Disease
  • Tauopathies

Interventions

DRUG

[18F]T807 ([18F]MNI-777)

All enrolled subjects will undergo an \[18F\]MNI-777 PET imaging visit. For individuals with AD or CTE, \[18F\]florbetapir imaging may also be performed to serve as a means of correlating disease severity by evaluating the relationship of β-amyloid uptake (measured by \[18F\]florbetapir imaging) and tau protein uptake (measured by \[18F\]MNI-777 PET imaging). For individuals with Parkinsonian symptoms, \[123I\]β-CIT SPECT imaging may be performed to evaluate for a reduction in dopamine transporter uptake.
