Summary

Inflammation could provide a new focus for therapeutic intervention. In this study, we will measure blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) inflammation biomarkers and compare them to measurements of brain glial activation obtained by positron emission tomography (PET). In addition, we will determine the effect of low-dose interleukin-2 (IL-2) immunotherapy, given over 22 weeks, on these inflammation biomarkers.

Conditions

  • Alzheimer Disease

Interventions

DRUG

11C-ER176

ER176 is a PET tracer that binds to the 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO), which is expressed by activated microglia and astrocytes and is therefore an index of brain inflammation.
