The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of psilocybin on synaptic vesicular density (SVD) as measured by the positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracer, 18F-SynVesT-1, in participants with amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment (aMCI) and healthy participants. The investigators hypothesize that SVD levels in the brain will be higher following the ingestion of psilocybin in comparison to placebo, and that increases in SVD will be associated with improvements in cognition. 60 participants (30 with aMCI, and 30 sex and age matched healthy volunteers) will: * Be randomized to receive either: 1. Two 25 mg macrodoses of psilocybin separated by 1 week. 2. Two placebo doses separated by 1 week. * Receive a baseline 18F-SynVesT-1 PET scan, clinical, and neuropsychological assessments. * Receive a 18F-SynVesT-1 PET scan one week after the last dose of treatment. * Receive a third PET scan at any time within 4 weeks of the screening visit to quantify tauopathy with the \[18F\]T807 radiotracer. * Receive clinical and neuropsychological testing 1, 4, and 12 weeks after the last treatment. Researchers will compare placebo vs. experimental groups to see if psilocybin will increase SVD, and if increases in SVD are associated with cognitive improvements.

Background: About 5% to 10% of differentiated thyroid cancers become resistant to standard treatment with radioactive iodine. In these cases, treatment options are limited and generally not effective. Researchers want to see if they can better detect thyroid tumors by using a compound called 68Gallium-DOTATATE. This compound may bind to a tumor and make it visible during a positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scan. This information might help guide future research and treatment. Objective: To identify the people with thyroid cancer whose tumors have a high uptake of 68Gallium-DOTATATE as analyzed by imaging with PET/CT. Eligibility: People ages 18 years and older with thyroid cancer that has spread outside of the thyroid. Design: Participants will have a medical exam. They will give blood and urine samples. Some samples will be used for research. Participants will have imaging scans that follow standard of care. These scans may include: CT scan of the neck, chest, abdomen, and pelvis Bone scan Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain, spine, or liver 18-FDG-PET/CT as needed Participants will have a PET/CT scan. They will get an intravenous (IV) line. They will get an IV injection of 68Gallium-DOTATATE. It contains radioactive tracers. The PET/CT scanner is shaped like a large donut. It contains crystals. The crystals pick up small radiation signals that are given off by the tracers. The CT part of the scan uses low-dose x-rays. The pictures made by the scanner show where the tracers are in the body. The session will last 90 minutes. Participation will last for about 3 months.

Limit: 5000 characters. Psilocybin, the chemical component of "magic mushrooms", has been administered with psychotherapy in several randomized clinical trials (RCTs) showing large and sustained antidepressant effects. In healthy volunteers, the psychedelic effects of psilocybin have been shown to be blocked by administration of certain medications such as risperidone. The purpose of this study is to use an established SV2A radiotracer produced at our Centre to determine the feasibility of integrating PET imaging in to psilocybin trials. The preliminary imaging data will assess whether psilocybin's antidepressant effects are related to changes in synaptic density in adults with TRD, and whether any changes in synaptic density are associated with psilocybin's actions on the 5-HT2AR.

PET-MRI for Traumatic Brain Injury

Villanova, Pennsylvania
Chronic Traumatic Brain Injury (cTBI) symptoms exist in individuals who experienced previous traumatic brain injuries. There are 80-90 thousand individuals who are clinically diagnosed with cTBI, with estimated costs at greater than 60 billion dollars. However, there is a lack of studies using comprehensive diagnostic imaging tools to better understand physiological ramifications of the injury that may help guide therapy. This study uses integrative medicine approaches for persons with cTBI. Another aim of this study will be a continuation of this protocol in an effort to address the ongoing distressing physiological and psychological (anxiety and depression) symptoms associated with cTBI. After completion of the initial 3 study arms, the investigators have amended the protocol to evaluate the physiological and psychological effects and potential symptom improvement of integrative medicine approaches in cTBI patients using the Neuro Emotive Technique (NET). Participants may be re-enrolled in the NET group after completion of participation in the initial study arms. The participants in the NET substudy will be interviewed about Subjective Units of Distress (SUDS) associated with the cTBI event initially and after completion of the NET sessions.

There is limited information on what causes injury to the heart in individuals with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). Researchers in this study want to see if decreased blood flow to the heart during stress could be causing the heart damage seen in SCD patients. They also want to test people who don't have SCD to see if their hearts react the same way under stress. Primary Objective * To estimate the coronary flow reserve (CFR) (also referred to as myocardial perfusion reserve), as measured by PET stress-rest myocardial perfusion imaging, in SCD patients with and without diastolic dysfunction, and healthy controls. Secondary Objectives * To investigate the relationship between decreased CFR (quantified with PET stress- rest myocardial perfusion imaging) and presence of abnormal diastolic parameters

Repetitive Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) uses magnetic fields to modulate brain activity. A novel form of repetitive TMS (rTMS), intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS), has emerged as a promising new treatment for depression. This technique may be advantageous due to its very short duration and potentially stronger effect on brain activity in comparison with standard rTMS. However, the exact effect of iTBS on the activity of the brain in clinical populations remains poorly understood. This project aims to improve understanding of the mechanisms of action of iTBS by comparing its neuronal effect to sham treatment in 22 individuals with a diagnosis of major depressive episode, using positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in a double-blind cross-over experiment, followed by a 6-week daily treatment course of iTBS.

Positron emission tomography (PET) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) is an examination that helps to assess the function and perfusion of the heart. Completion of this examination requires the injection of a small dose of a radiotracer (a radioactive substance). PET MPI is a state-of-the-art non-invasive cardiac imaging tool. The main goal of the PET MPI examination is to assess if one or more of the arteries feeding blood to your heart are blocked. This examination replaces an older technology (single photon emission computed tomography, or SPECT), and allows the obtention of more accurate information, and new information that the older SPECT technology did not assess. The radiation dose received as part of the procedure is also smaller with PET versus SPECT. One of the substances which can be used for PET MPI is called N-13 ammoniac (NH3). For this clinical study, NH3 which will be produced at the Centre de Recherche du Centre Hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CRCHUM), per the standards and methods prescribed by Health Canada. NH3 is not currently approved for clinical use by Health Canada. It is thus considered and experimental substance in the context of this study. Participants will undergo PET MPI with the CRCHUM NH3. The PET MPI procedure itself is not an experimental procedure and is not part of the research protocol. Only the use of NH3 produced at the CRCHUM is experimental. The main objective of this research study is to validate the production process and assess the safety of the NH3 produced at the CRCHUM cyclotron. Secondary objectives include the assessment of prescription practices amongst physicians who refer patients for PET MPI, and how they will change over time.

Our overall objective is to obtain an initial assessment of the potential value of using \[18F\]3F4AP for imaging demyelinating diseases such as multiple sclerosis: * Aim 1) Assess the safety of \[18F\]3F4AP in healthy volunteers and subjects with multiple sclerosis (MS). Hypothesis 1: Administration of \[18F\]3F4AP will result in no changes in vitals or other adverse events. * Aim 2) Assess the pharmacokinetics of a bolus infusion of \[18F\]3F4AP in humans including healthy volunteers and MS patients. Hypothesis 2: the pharmacokinetics of \[18F\]3F4AP at the whole brain level will be similar in controls and MS subjects. The kinetics in demyelinated lesions will be slower than in healthy control areas. * Aim 3) Assess the reproducibility of \[18F\]3F4AP in humans. Hypothesis 3: the test/retest variability of \[18F\]3F4AP within the same subject will be lower than 10%. * Aim 4) Correlate MR brain images with \[18F\]3F4AP PET brain images. Hypothesis 4A: all the lesions seen on the MRI will show increased signal (VT or SUV) on the PET images. Hypothesis 4B: some of the lesions on the MRI will show increased signal (VT or SUV) on the PET but not all. * Aim 5) Correlate \[18F\]3F4AP PET signal with neuropsychological testing in people with MS. Hypothesis 5: increased PET signal (VT or SUV) will correlate with impaired Single Digit Modality Test (SDMT) scores. * Aim 6) Correlate \[18F\]3F4AP PET signal with EDSS score in people with MS. Hypothesis 6: increased PET signal (VT or SUV) will correlate with higher EDSS scores.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Positron Emission Tomography clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Positron Emission Tomography clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Positron Emission Tomography trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Positron Emission Tomography is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Positron Emission Tomography medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Positron Emission Tomography clinical trials?

Most recently, we added 18F-JSS20-183A for Tauopathies, PET Imaging for Fatty Liver Disease and Psilocybin for Depression to the Power online platform.
