E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
Subjects should have already met inclusion and exclusion criteria for the main protocol “Clinical assessment and follow-up of a naturalistic population of patients enrolled in an amyloid imaging program in Memory Clinics in Brescia, Italy”, that are: a) Patients with cognitive complaints who will be included in a diagnostic work-up to make a differential diagnosis; b) Age between 50 and 85 years; c) Patients who have an informant (spouse, adult child, or friend who knows the patient well) available for accompanying to visits. In addition: Subjects meet the following inclusion criteriona: 1. Subjects who sign an Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) approved informed consent form prior to any florbetapir (18F) PET procedures |
I soggetti potranno essere arruolati in accordo ai criteri di inclusione/esclusione dello studio principale “Clinical assessment and follow-up of a naturalistic population of patients enrolled in an amyloid imaging program in Memory Clinics in Brescia, Italy”, ovvero: a) Sono pazienti, che lamentano disturbi cognitivi, che saranno inseriti in un percorso di accertamento diagnostico di routine per poter compiere una diagnosi differenziale; b) Hanno un’età ≥ 50 e ≤ 85 anni; c) Hanno un informatore (moglie, marito, figlio adulto o amico che conosca bene il soggetto) disponibile ad accompagnarli alle visite. . In aggiunta, i soggetti potranno essere arruolati se in possesso del seguente requisito: 1. Hanno firmato un consenso informato approvato dal Comitato Etico prima di sottoporsi all’esame PET con Florbetapir (18F).; |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
Subjects will be excluded from enrollment if they have already met exclusion criteria for the main protocol “Clinical assessment and follow-up of a naturalistic population of patients enrolled in an amyloid imaging program in Memory Clinics in Brescia, Italy”, that are: • Are MCI patients with a CDR (Clinical Dementia rating Scale) > 0,5 at baseline; AD and non-AD patients with a CDR (Clinical Dementia rating Scale) > 2 at baseline. In addition, subjects will be excluded from enrollment if they: : a. Have a current clinically significant psychiatric condition that neurologists/geriatricians feel would preclude the ability to have a research PET scan; b. Are women of childbearing potential who are not surgically sterile, not refraining from sexual activity or not using reliable methods of contraception. Women of childbearing potential must not be pregnant (negative urine β-hCG at the time of screening and negative urine β-hCG on the day of imaging) or breast feeding at screening. Women must avoid becoming pregnant, and must agree to refrain from sexual activity or to use reliable contraceptive methods such as prescribed birth control or IUD for 24 hours following administration of florbetapir (18F); c. Have a relevant history of severe drug allergy or hypersensitivity (relevant severe drug allergies should be determined by the Principal Investigator or Co-Principal Investigator, and any questions about a subject’s eligibility can be directed to Avid Radiopharmaceuticals Inc.. If a subject has a history of severe drug allergies, it may be dangerous for them to participate in a study with a novel compound); d. Have ever participated in an experimental study with an amyloid targeting agent (e.g. anti-amyloid immunotherapy, γ-secretase or γ-secretase inhibitor) unless it can be documented that the subject received only placebo during the course of the trial; f. Are receiving any investigational medications, or have participated in a trial with investigational medications within the last 30 days; and g. Have had a radiopharmaceutical imaging or treatment procedure within 7 days prior to the study imaging session. |
I soggetti non potranno essere arruolati in accordo ai criteri di esclusione dello studio principale “Clinical assessment and follow-up of a naturalistic population of patients enrolled in an amyloid imaging program in Memory Clinics in Brescia, Italy”, ovvero: . Sono pazienti MCI con un punteggio alla CDR (Clinical Dementia Rating Scale) > di 0.5 alla baseline; sono pazienti AD e non-AD con un punteggio alla CDR > 2 alla baseline. In aggiunta, i soggetti saranno esclusi dall’arruolamento se: a) I soggetti saranno esclusi dall’arruolamento se: a) Soffrono attualmente di una patologia psichiatrica clinicamente significativa a tal punto che il neurologo/geriatra ritiene il soggetto non in grado di completare la sessione di PET imaging. b) Sono donne potenzialmente fertili che non sono chirurgicamente sterili e che non garantiscono di non astenersi dall’attività sessuale per le 24 ore successive alla somministrazione di Florbetapir (18F). Le donne potenzialmente fertili non devono essere in stato di gravidanza (β- hCG urinaria negativa al momento dello screening e β-hCG urinaria negativa nel giorno della tomografia) o allattare al momento dello screening. Le donne in età fertile devono impegnarsi a non intraprendere una evitare la gravidanza nei 10 giorni precedenti alla scansione PET e durante le 24 ore successive alla stessa e gli uomini che partecipano allo studio dovranno impegnarsi a non far intraprendere evitare una gravidanza adella partner, garantendo l’astensione dai rapporti sessuali per le 24 ore successive alla somministrazione di Florbetapir (18F). c) Hanno una storia di grave allergia o ipersensibilità verso i farmaci (le allergie gravi ai farmaci devono essere attestate dallo sperimentatore principale (PI, Principal Investigator) o dal co-sperimentatore (Co-Principal Investigator) e qualsiasi domanda riguardante l’idoneità del soggetto può essere rivolta ad Avid Radiopharmaceuticals Inc. Se il soggetto ha una storia di gravi allergie ai farmaci, può essere pericoloso partecipare a uno studio con un composto nuovo). e) Hanno partecipato a uno studio sperimentale con una terapia anti-amiloide (ad es. immunoterapia, inibitore della secretasi), dunque non possono essere arruolati in questo studio a meno che si possa dimostrare che il soggetto ha ricevuto soltanto il placebo nel corso della sperimentazione. f) Stanno assumendo un farmaco sperimentale o hanno partecipato a una sperimentazione con farmaci sperimentali negli ultimi 30 giorni. g) Sono stati sottoposti a imaging o a procedure di trattamento utilizzando radiofarmaci nei 7 giorni precedenti la sessione di imaging di questo studio. |
