Investigation of AlzHeimer's Predictors in Subjective Memory Complainers - Extension Study


Sponsor

Institut National de la Santé Et de la Recherche Médicale, France

Enrollment

240 participants

Start Date

Apr 14, 2023

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

A regional, single-center, prospective, observational academic cohort will follow subjects who previously participated in the INSIGHT study and who agree an extension of their follow-up in the INSIGHT-2 research for additional 5-6 years. An annual multimodal evaluation (cognitive, oculomotor, biological and neuroimaging) will be proposed in order to describe the natural history of preclinical Alzheimer's disease (AD). The primary endpoint is the conversion to the symptomatic stage in subjects at risk, identified by positive amyloid staining (A+) on florbetapir positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. The size of the cohort is estimated to around 240 participants (61 A+ subjects) among the 318 participants included in the main cohort (88 A+ subjects). The follow-up in the INSIGHT-2 cohort will be lightened compared to that of the main cohort with an annual frequency of visits rather than a six-monthly one.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This is an extension study for people who previously took part in the INSIGHT research project, which studies memory and brain changes that may predict Alzheimer's disease in older adults who are concerned about their memory. **You may be eligible if...** - You previously participated in the INSIGHT study - You are between 70 and 95 years old - You are willing to have a PET brain scan to check for amyloid (a protein linked to Alzheimer's) - You are covered by the French healthcare system - You have someone (a family member or friend) who knows you well and can provide information about your thinking and daily functioning **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You did not participate in the original INSIGHT study - You have been diagnosed with dementia - You are not able to have a PET scan Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

Interventions

PROCEDUREElectroencephalogram (EEG)

The EEG will be uniquely performed during for the whole study if a given subject converts to symptomatic AD or in the occurrence of significant cognitive decline.

PROCEDUREOculomotor tests

All participants in the INSIGHT-2 study are invited to perform the oculomotor test, excepting subjects reporting oculomotor disorders.

PROCEDUREMRI

All INSIGHT-2 participants will undergo a baseline MRI (structural and resting state fMRI) a follow-up MRI at M12, M36 and M60.

RADIATION18-F amyloid PET Scan

The primary endpoint is conversion to the symptomatic stage in subjects at risk, identified by positive amyloid staining (A+) on florbetapir PET imaging. Participants will receive an injection of 18F-Florbetapir prior to undergoing amyloid PET scanning. Florbetapir (18F) is an experimental imaging compound labeled with \[18F\] fluorine that decays by positron (β+) emission and has a half-life of 109.77 min. This procedure will be done at baseline.

RADIATION18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET Scan

Participants will receive an injection of Fludeoxyglucose 18F prior to undergoing FDG-PET. The \[18F\]FDG is the most well-known radiopharmaceutical positron emitter, in both clinical and preclinical fields.

BIOLOGICALBlood sampling

A total of 80 ml of whole blood will be collected for each participant in the INSIGHT-2 study for routine laboratory assessment and biobank sampling.

BIOLOGICALLumbar puncture

A lumbar puncture for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) collection is proposed to all participants.
