Brief summary
The overall goal of this protocol is to evaluate the imaging characteristics of \[18F\]PI-2620 using positron emission tomography (PET) in patients with progressive supranuclear palsy, Richardson's syndrome (PSP-RS)
Detailed description
The imaging characteristics of \[18F\]PI-2620 using positron emission tomography (PET) in patients with progressive supranuclear palsy, Richardson's syndrome (PSP-RS) will be evaluated by a) determining the test-retest variability of the \[18F\]PI-2620 binding parameters in brain of patients with PSP-RS and non-demented controls (NDC).
Interventions
\[18F\]PI-2620 is a radioactive diagnostic agent being developed for the indication of PET imaging of the brain to detect tau pathology in adult patients who are being evaluated for neurodegenerative decline. All patients will receive two administrations of \[18F\]PI-2620 at a radioactive dose of 185 megabecquerel (MBq).

| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Test-retest variability of the [18F]PI-2620 binding parameters in brain of patients with PSP-RS and non-demented controls | The duration of the study for participants may be up to 74 days | Test-retest variability of \[18F\]PI-2620 accumulation will be analyzed using quantification |
| Number of adverse events | The duration of the study for participants may be up to 74 days | Safety will be evaluated by collection of Adverse Events. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Compare quantification in terms if test-retest variability in PSP-RS and NDC | The duration of the study for participants may be up to 74 days | Comparison of quantification in terms of test-retest variability in PSP and NDC. The ability of \[18F\]PI-2620 to discriminate between PSP-RS and NDC will be assessed. |
| Correlate radioligand binding in PSP-RS with clinical scales | The duration of the study for participants may be up to 74 days | Correlation of radioligand binding with clinical scales in PSP-RS will be analyzed |
