Summary

This is a cross-sectional, observational study that characterizes research participants with Alzheimer's disease (AD) for their patterns of brain degeneration with the investigational tau positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracer \[18F\] MK-6240. The goal is to describe the topographic pattern of involvement of cerebral brain regions (topographic phenotyping) in early stage AD participants using tau PET in a sub-cohort of the University of Washington Alzheimer's Disease Research Center (ADRC) Clinical Cohort, and to make this phenotype information available to affiliated research studies at the University of Washington and to the general scientific community via the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center.
