Longitudinal SV2A PET and MRI in Premanifest HD

Longitudinal Imaging of Striatal Synaptic Density and Volume in People With Premanifest Huntington's Disease.

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 5 May 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

AIM: to compare the sensitivity of SV2A PET and volumetric MRI to detect longitudinal striatal changes in premanifest HD. DESIGN: The investigators will include late premanifest HD mutations carriers and matched healthy controls. All subjects will undergo a clinical examination, with comprehensive assessment of motor and non-motor symptoms, and imaging evaluation consisting of 18F-SynVesT-1 PET and volumetric MRI at baseline and after 2 years.
