F 18 T807 Tau PET Imaging in Dominantly Inherited Alzheimer's Network (DIAN Project)
F 18 T807 Tau PET Imaging in Dominantly Inherited Alzheimer's Network (IND 123119, Protocol D
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 9 Jun 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate a new radioactive compound used in positron emission tomography (PET) scans in identifying tau tangles (a certain protein that might be associated with Dominantly Inherited Alzheimer's Disease) in the brain, and if the amount of tau tangles in the brain has a relationship to cognitive status. This study involves a PET scans using the radioactive compound, F 18 T807 for measurement of tau deposition. This radioactive compound is not approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). An MRI may also be conducted.

Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Prior treatment
- Other than DIAN study, currently participating in any research study and receiving an active study medication for Alzheimer's Disearse, an investigational drug, device, imaging, or placebo within the past 30 days before screening, and throughout this clinical trial up to 2-weeks past any study-related procedures.
- Other than DIAN study, current or recent (within 12 months prior to screening) participation in research studies involving radioactive agents such that the total research-related radiation dose to the participant in any given year would exceed the limits set forth in the US Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 21 Section 361.1. http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfcfr/CFRSearch.cfm?FR=361.1. It is the responsibility of each site to confirm the date of the most recent PET scan and to work within the guidelines of the local Radioactive Drug Research Committee (RDRC) regarding the imaging interval.
Other illness
- Has any condition that, in the Investigator's opinion, could increase risk to the participant, limit the participant's ability to tolerate the experimental procedures, or interfere with the collection/analysis of the data (for example, participants with severe chronic back pain might not be able to lie still during the scanning procedures).
- Has hypersensitivity to F 18 T807 or any of its excipients.
Lab values
- Has a high risk for Torsades de Pointes or is taking medications known to prolong QT interval.
Other
- Is deemed likely unable to perform the imaging procedures for any reason.
- Contraindications to PET, PET-CT or MR (e.g. electronic medical devices, inability to lie still for long periods) that make it unsafe for the individual to participate.
- Severe claustrophobia.
- Women who are currently pregnant or breast-feeding, and women who do not agree to use reliable contraception, or to refrain from sexcual activity for 24 hours following administration of the flortaucipir injection will be excluded from the study.
Who the study is looking for
- Participants have met all eligibility criteria for enrollment into the "Dominantly Inherited Alzheimer's Network (DIAN) Performance Site" (IRB ID: 201109187) or the DIAN Extended Registry (EXR)
- Male or female participants, at least 18 years of age
- Cognitively normal, or with mild dementia, as assessed clinically
- Participant is able and willing to undergo testing (MRI or CT, PET, radioactive tracer injection; for those unable to undergo an MRI, CT will be used to generate regions-of-interest).
- Pre-menopausal women will undergo a urine pregnancy test within 24 hours of drug administration. Only negative pregnancy test result would allow the drug administration to proceed.
Age in the registry: 18 years to - · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
