You may not qualify if…
- Current or prior history of any alcohol or drug abuse.
- Laboratory tests with clinically significant abnormalities and/or clinically significant unstable medical illness.
- Subject has received an investigational drug or device within 30 days of screening
- Prior participation in other research protocols or clinical care in the last year in addition to the radiation exposure expected from participation in this clinical study, such that radiation exposure exceeds the effective dose of 50 mSv, which would be above the acceptable annual limit established by the US Federal Guidelines
- Pregnancy, lactating or breastfeeding.
- Evidence of clinically significant gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, hepatic, renal, hematological, neoplastic, endocrine, alternative neurological, immunodeficiency, pulmonary, or other disorder or disease.
- Unsuitable veins for repeated venipuncture.
- MRI exclusion criteria include: evidence of cerebrovascular disease (more than two lacunar infarcts, any territorial infarct >1cm3, or deep white matter abnormality corresponding to an overall Fazekas scale of 3 with at least one confluent hyperintense lesion on the FLAIR sequence that is ≥20 mm in any dimension), infectious disease, space-occupying lesions, normal pressure hydrocephalus or any other abnormalities associated with CNS disease.
- Implants such as implanted cardiac pacemakers or defibrillators, insulin pumps, cochlear implants, metallic ocular foreign body, implanted neural stimulators, CNS aneurysm clips and other medical implants that have not been certified for MRI, or history of claustrophobia in MRI.
- Exclusion Criteria for Subjects with Probable AD:
- Has received treatment that targeted amyloid-β or tau within the last 3 months.
- Exclusion Criteria for Subjects with Probable PSP:
- Ongoing treatment with methylphenidate, bupropion, modafinil, metoclopramide, alpha methyldopa, reserpine, or amphetamine derivative.
