Eligibility:

All Genders

20+ years

Phase:

PHASE1

Brief Summary

This is a Phase 1, single center, open-label, non-randomized, clinical study in probable AD patients and HVs to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of a single dose of MNI-672. The underlyi...

Detailed Description

To determine diagnostic efficacy of the MNI-672 SPECT scans in differentiating between patients with probable AD and HVs on the basis of neocortical tracer binding pattern, the SPECT scans will be vis...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Healthy Volunteer Inclusion Criteria:
  • is male and is 20-30 years of age (inclusive)
  • has no evidence of cognitive impairment as indicated by a clinical dementia rating (CDR, \[Hughes et al. 1993\]) score of 0 (zero) and a score of ≥ 28 in the Mini-Mental Status Examination (MMSE, \[Folstein et al. 1975\])
  • has MRI brain scan that has been judged as "normal (age- appropriate)" including ARWMC scale \[Wahlund et al. 2001\] scores supporting the lack of cerebrovascular disease (e.g., a white matter lesion score of 0 or 1 or 2 and a basal ganglia score of 0 or 1)
  • has no family history of AD defined by more than 1 first-degree relative
  • Alzheimer disease subject inclusion criteria:
  • is male or female and is ≥ 50 of age, whereby females must be without childbearing potential (confirmed by either: age ≥ 60; or history of surgical sterilization or of hysterectomy, or last spontaneous bleeding at least 2 years prior to the study start)
  • presents with positive assessment for dementia of Alzheimer's type in accordance with the DSM-IV-TR and probable AD according to the NINCDS-ADRDA criteria and fulfils none of the exclusion criteria of either
  • does not fulfill the ICC criteria for probable DLB, the NINDS-AIREN for probable Vascular dementia, or the Neary \[Neary et al. 1998\] criteria for FTD
  • has a CDR \[Hughes et al. 1993\] score of 0.5, 1 or 2
  • MRI brain scan findings that do not reveal changes indicative of stroke and/or generalized cerebrovascular disease (e.g., the ARWMC scale) changes limited to: a white matter lesion score of 0 or 1 or 2 and a basal ganglia score of 0 or 1)
  • has an Amyvid PET scan with moderate to frequent amyloid neuritic plaques based on visual interpretation
  • has a caregiver who is willing and able to attend study visits and perform the psychometric tests requiring the presence of a caregiver
  • Exclusion Criteria for all subjects:
  • has any contraindication to MRI examination, e.g. metal implants or phobia
  • is scheduled for surgery and/or another invasive procedure within the time period of up to 7 days following MNI-672 application
  • is medically unstable and whose clinical course during the observation period is unpredictable, e.g. patients / volunteers within 14 days of myocardial infarction or stroke, unstable patients / volunteers with previous surgery (within 7 days), patients with advanced heart insufficiency (NYHA stage IV), or with acute renal failure
  • has a history of exposure to any radiation \>15 mSv/year (e.g. occupational or radiation therapy)
  • is receiving drug therapy or other treatment that is known to lead to greatly fluctuating values of the hematological or chemical laboratory parameters or to severe side effects (e.g. chemotherapy)
  • has received anti-amyloid drug therapy
  • has been previously enrolled in this study or participated in a clinical study involving an investigational pharmaceutical product within 30 days prior to screening, and/or any radiopharmaceutical within 10 radioactive half-lives prior to MNI-672 administration
  • has a brain tumor or other intracranial lesion, a disturbance of CSF circulation (e.g., normal pressure hydrocephalus) and/or a history of serious head trauma or brain surgery
  • has a history, physical, laboratory or imaging findings indicative of a significant neurological or psychiatric illness (for patients - other than AD)
  • has another disease that can cause disturbance of brain function (e.g. vitamin B12 or folic acid deficiency, disturbed thyroid function)
  • has a history of alcohol or drug abuse
