Summary

This study will evaluate whether visual interpretation of flortaucipir-PET (positron emission tomography) scans, examining patterns of tracer uptake at baseline, can predict the rate of clinically-meaningful cognitive decline due to AD after 18 months. All scans are acquired from cohorts of a previously completed study, I8D-MC-AZES (NCT02245737, lanabecestat, Eli Lilly and Company sponsor).

Eligibility Criteria

Scan Reader Criteria (5 total readers):

  • Board-certified in radiology or nuclear medicine
  • Professional experience interpreting PET scans

Scan Criteria (205 total scans):

  • Former enrollment in AZES Study
  • Flortaucipir scan at baseline
  • clinical dementia rating - sum of boxes (CDR-SB) assessment at 18 months

Scan Study Population (AZES Study):

  • 55 to 85 years
  • MCI due to AD or probable AD by National Institute on Aging-Alzheimer's Association criteria (Albert 2011
  • mini-mental status exam (MMSE) of 20 to 30 inclusive
  • CDR global score of 0.5 (MCI), or 0.5 or 1 (AD) with a memory box score ≥ 0.5, and a score of ≤85 on the Delayed Memory Index of the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status.
  • Amyloid positive status confirmed by florbetapir PET or lumbar puncture
