About this trial

This is a Phase 1/2 study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of 18F-OP-801 in subjects with ALS, AD, MS, PD and age-matched HVs. 18F-OP-801 is intended as a biomarker for PET imaging of activated microglia and macrophages in regions of neuroinflammation.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Has the ability to understand and sign the written ICF and local medical privacy authorization forms, which must be obtained prior to the conduct of any study related procedures.

Female subjects of non-childbearing potential must be either surgically sterile (hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, salpingectomy, and/or bilateral oophorectomy at least 26 weeks before the Screening Visit) or postmenopausal, defined as spontaneous amenorrhea for at least 2 years, with follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in the postmenopausal range at screening, based on the local laboratory's defined ranges.

Male subjects: condoms or surgical sterilization of subject at least 26 weeks before the Screening Visit (i.e., vasectomy).

Surgical sterilization at least 26 weeks before the Screening Visit (includes hysterectomy or bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, or salpingectomy);

Disqualifiers

Body weight >120 kg

Evidence of clinically significant or past medical history of hematologic, renal, endocrine, pulmonary, cardiac, gastrointestinal, hepatic, psychiatric, neurologic, immunologic, allergic disease (including multiple or clinically significant drug allergies) or any other condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, might significantly interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion of study drug or place the subject at an unacceptable risk as a participant in this study

History of recurrent kidney or liver malignancy

Pacemaker or defibrillator or any non-removable metallic foreign objects in the body not compatible with MRI

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

The number of participants with treatment emergent adverse events (Safety and Tolerability)

Safety of single dose of 18F-OP-801 as measured by treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0

Time frame

Secondary outcomes

1

Measurement of biodistribution of 18F-OP-801 for each participant

Measure biodistribution of 18F-OP-801 using whole body PET/MRI or PET/computed tomography (CT) scans

Time frame
Through study completion at Day 15 or Day 18-29
2

Measurement of clearance of 18F-OP-801 for each participant

Measure clearance of 18F-OP-801 using whole body PET/MRI or PET/computed tomography (CT) scans

Time frame
Through study completion at Day 15 or Day 18-29
3

Assess ability of 18F-OP-801 to detect regions of neuroinflammation in ALS, AD, MS, and PD participants

Determine correlation between MRI and PET images in each subject, quantifying the extent of 18F-OP-801 uptake in the region of neuroinflammation relative to normal brain section in the same subject as measured by whole body PET/MRI or PET/CT scans

Time frame
Through study completion at Day 15 or Day 18-29
4

Assess test/retest imaging repeatability

Compare regional and global brain uptake of 18F-OP-801 on two separate occasions

Time frame
Through study completion at Day 18-29

Other outcomes

1

Correlation between plasma biomarker levels and PET signal for each participant

Correlation of plasma levels for various biomarkers with brain PET signal

Time frame
Screening and Day 1
2

Evaluate timeframe for optimal CNS tracer uptake

Determine the timing of maximal 18F-OP-801 uptake in CNS tissue

Time frame
Day 1
