18F-DTBZ AV-133 imaging
Brief summary
A total 40 PD subjects will be included in this study. PD subjects between 20 and 80 years of age may be eligible for this study. Candidates are screened with a medical history and physical examination, and blood test.
Detailed description
The primary objective of this protocol is to assess the rate of change in striatal 18F-DTBZ uptake in a cohort of Parkinson's disease patients. This study is expected to be completed in a period of 4 years.
Interventions
A total 40 PD subjects will be included in this study. PD subjects between 20 and 80 years of age may be eligible for this study. Candidates are screened with a medical history and physical examination, and blood test.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
1. Male or female age 20 years to 80 years. 2. Patients should be fulfilled Criteria of diagnosis of Parkinson disease of possible or probable PD1. 3. Patients who provide a written informed consent prior to study entry. If the patient is incapable of informed consent, the caregiver may consent on behalf of the patient (the patient must still confirm assent)
Exclusion criteria
1. Significant recent (within 6 months) history of neurological (including stroke and brain trauma) or psychiatric disorder. 2. Alcohol or substance abuse. 3. History or presence of QTc prolongation. (\>500msec) 4. History of intracranial operation, including thalamotomy, pallidotomy, and/or deep brain stimulation. 5. Unable to stay still in the MRI or PET scanner for 30 minutes. 6. Pregnancy and breast feeding. 7. Hepatic dysfunction with liver function test (alanine aminotransferase \[ALT\] and aspartate aminotransferase \[AST\]) of \> 3x the upper limit of normal

| To Determine the Test/Retest 18F-DTBZ PET Measurements of Vesicular Monoamine Transporter II Binding in PD Patients. | three years | The test/retest reliability will be estimated from a subgroup of the study subjects (10 subjects) who receive additional scan within 4 weeks since baseline image. In order to refine the definition of a positive 18F-DTBZ in patient with PD as compared to healthy control, quantitative measurement will be used. The standard uptake value (SUV) of each brain regions will be calculated. The SUV is a widely used, simple PET quantifier, calculated as a ratio of tissue radioactivity concentration (e.g. in units kBq/ml) at time t, CPET(t) and injected dose (e.g. in units MBq) at the time of injection divided by body weight (e.g. in units kg).SUV = CPET(t) / (Injected dose / Patient's weight), t =90min, and the unit of SUV is g/ml. |
