Study Summary

This trial aims to test the safety of using a specific radiotracer called [11C]CPPC in PET imaging for people who have had COVID-19. The researchers want to see if this

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals who have had COVID-19. It's open to those with lingering symptoms (Long-COVID) and those without current symptoms. Participants must be suitable for PET scans using the [11C]CPPC radiotracer, but specific health requirements are not listed.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
[11C]CPPC Injection is being tested in this study. The researchers want to see if it's safe and whether it shows differences in PET scan images between Long-COVID patients and recovered individuals without symptoms.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
The side effects of the [11C]CPPC injection aren't detailed here, but as a radiotracer used in PET imaging, potential risks may include allergic reactions or side effects from the substance itself.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Safety of use of [11C]CPPC in patients with Long-COVID and healthy participants with history of COVID-19 infection as assessed by a change in complete blood count (CBC) test.
Safety of use of [11C]CPPC in patients with Long-COVID and healthy participants with history of COVID-19 infection as assessed by a change in complete metabolic panel (CMP) test.
To assess the safety and tolerability of one dose level of [11C]CPPC when administered intravenously.
Secondary outcome measures
Biodistribution of [11C]CPPC by PET imaging
Cognitive function as assessed by the NIH Toolbox Cognition Battery (NIHTB-CB)
Dementia as assessed by the Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) scale

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Patients with history of COVID-19 infection and still experiencing symptoms (Long-COVID)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants with a diagnosis of Long- COVID will receive a single dose of [11C]CPPC (370 megabecquerel (MBq) (X±1 mCi)) intravenously and subsequent positron emission tomography (PET) scan.
Group II: Healthy Participants with history of COVID-19 infection but not experiencing any symptoms.Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Healthy participants (without any history of post-COVID symptoms) will receive a single dose of [11C]CPPC (370 megabecquerel (MBq) (X±1 mCi)) intravenously and subsequent positron emission tomography (PET) scan.
