Re-Read Study to Compare the Brain Uptake of [18F]Flutemetamol With Brain Neuritic Plaque Density Determined Postmortem

N/ACompletedNCT02090855

GE Healthcare108 enrolled

Overview

Data from subjects who had previously been dosed with Flutemetamol (18F) Injection and imaged in Study GE-067-007, and who died on or before 10 June 2013, will be analyzed. The PET brain images previously obtained in Study GE-067-007 will be interpreted visually in randomized by 5 independent readers who are blinded to all other subject information, and the images will be classified as abnormal (positive for abnormal neuritic plaque density) or normal (negative for abnormal neuritic plaque density). The numbers of images in each category will be used to calculate sensitivity and specificity.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

The Number of Abnormal Blinded Visual PET Image Interpretations.

Blinded visual assessment of each subject's Flutemetamol (18F) Injection brain PET images as positive or negative will be performed by 5 independent blinded readers trained in the interpretation of \[18F\]flutemetamol PET images through an electronic training program.

Time frame: Brain images will be assessed up to 1 year post subject's death.

Sensitivity Percentage of Blinded Visual PET Image Interpretations of Subjects With Abnormal Scans

Time frame: Brain images will be assessed up to 1 year post subject's death.

Secondary Outcomes

Number of Blinded Visual PET Image Interpretations

Specificity of blinded visual image interpretations according to neuropathological criteria.

Time frame: Brain images will be assessed up to 1 year post subject's death.

Specificity Percentage of Blinded Visual PET Image Interpretations

Specificity of blinded visual image interpretations according to neuropathological criteria, which is defined as the neuritic plaque density, neurofibriilary tangles and vasculpoathy in the brain.

Time frame: Brain images will be assessed up to 1 year post subject's death.
