18F-mFBG Cardiac Uptake With Lewy Body Dementia (NCT07176286)
An Open-Label, Exploratory, Phase 2 Scintigraphy Study Evaluating 18F-mFBG for Imaging Myocardial Sympathetic Innervation in Subjects With and Without Lewy Body Diseases
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This is a Phase 2 study evaluating the positron-emitting radiopharmaceutical 18F-mFBG as an imaging agent for quantification of the effect of neurodegenerative diseases on myocardial sympathetic innervation. Effectiveness of 18F-mFBG imaging of the heart will be judged in terms of the quantitative difference between results for subjects with Lewy body and non-Lewy body neurologic disease as compared to historical data for healthy control subjects.
