Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Primary Outcome 1: 1a) Comparison of Standardized uptake values (SUVs) and SUV ratios (SUVRs) between clinical categories (HC, MCI, AD) of AD continuum (transverse study), as well as the locations and statstical values of statistically significant findings in voxel-by-voxel analysis. 1b) Comparison of Standardized uptake values (SUVs) and SUV ratios (SUVRs) between different clinical categories (FTLD, DLB, PSP, HC, MCI, AD, HC) (transverse study), as well as the locations and statstical values of statistically significant findings in voxel-by-voxel analysis. Primary Outcome 2: 2a) Comparison of Standardized uptake values (SUVs) and SUV ratios (SUVRs) between 1st and following [18F]SMBT-1 PET images in HC, MCI, AD, FTLD, DLB, PSP in a longitudinal study design, as well as the locations and statstical values of statistically significant findings in voxel-by-voxel analysis. 2b) Correlation of Standardized uptake values (SUVs) and SUV ratios (SUVRs) of 1st [18F]SMBT-1 PET images of HC, MCI, AD, FTLD, DLB, PSP to other clinical findings (clinical symptoms, neuropsychological examinations and amyloid PET) especially those at the 2nd examination and to the changes between 1st and following examinations. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary Outcome 1: Correlations between [18F]SMBT-1 accumulation in 1st PET and other clinical information such as cognitive abilities, clinical symptoms, and findings of amyloid and tau PET investigations at 1st [18F]SMBT-1 PET examination. Secondary Outcome 2: Correlations between [18F]SMBT-1 accumulation in 2nd and following PET examinations and clinical information such as cognitive abilities, clinical symptoms, and findings of amyloid and tau PET investigations at 2nd and following [18F]SMBT-1 PET examinations. | — |
