CS1P1 PET Studies of Neuroinflammation in Parkinson Disease

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 2 Apr 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Parkinson disease (PD) is a progressive neurological disorder strongly linked to advancing age that results in decline in mobility and thinking. Based on prior research, the investigators think that small amounts of inflammation in the brain may contribute to the mobility and thinking problems in people with PD. They are trying to measure inflammation in the brain in order to understand how this inflammation could be contributing to the symptoms of PD. This study involves a brain positron emission tomography (PET) scan with a new, investigational radioactive tracer called \[11C\]-CS1P1 to identify inflammation in the brain.The goal of this project is to quantify neuroinflammation with \[11C\]-CS1P1 PET and compare to motor and cognitive function in participants with various stages of severity of PD compared to controls.

Who the study is looking for

  • Parkinson Disease (PD) participants must be at least 50 years old and meet clinical diagnostic criteria of idiopathic PD.
  • Control participants must be at least 50 years old and not have PD, no first-degree family member with PD, and no evidence of PD or dementia on examination.

Age in the registry: 50 years to - · Sex: All · Accepts healthy volunteers
