Study Summary

This trial will use PET/CT imaging to study how a new radiotracer is taken up and metabolized by the body.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for healthy adults over 18, possibly with well-controlled chronic conditions like diabetes or hypertension. Pregnant women, individuals with a BMI over 35, uncontrolled high blood pressure, epilepsy, severe head trauma history, heavy alcohol use (>25 drinks/week), certain mental health disorders (like PTSD or schizophrenia), or recent use of dopaminergic stimulants cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
[18F]Fluortriopride ([18F]FTP) is being tested to see how it's distributed in the body and how it's broken down and removed when used in PET/CT scans. This phase 1 pilot study will help understand [18F]FTP's behavior inside the human body using imaging technology.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
As this is an early-phase study primarily focused on tracking the radiotracer within the body rather than therapeutic effects, specific side effects are not detailed but may include reactions typical to PET/CT scan procedures such as discomfort at injection site or allergic reactions.

Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Demonstrate the feasibility of imaging the brain with the dopamine D3 receptor imaging agent [18F]fluortriopride
Determine biodistribution of the radioactive investigational drug ([18F]fluortriopride) in healthy volunteers and calculate human dosimetry.
Secondary outcome measures
Evaluate the safety of [18F]fluortriopride

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Dynamic Brain CohortExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The Dynamic Brain cohort will include up to 10 patients who will undergo a dynamic brain [18F]Fluortriopride PET/CT scan over a period of approximately 2 hours. Subjects in this cohort will also undergo a research brain MRI, generally on a separate day from the PET/CT.
Group II: Biodistribution CohortExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The Biodistribution cohort will include up to10 patients who will undergo a series of whole body biodistribution [18F]Fluortriopride PET/CT scans over a period of approximately 4 hours.
