Evaluation of Inter-reader Reliability Using Images From Subjects With Alzheimer's Disease (AD) or Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI)

Re-read of brain amyloid scans acquired in previous AV-45 clinical studies by readers trained using updated reading methodology. The scans in this study came from subjects who had Alzheimer's Disease (AD) or Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI).

Key information

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Participants:

  • Inclusion Criteria AD:
  • Male or female >=50 years of age
  • Meet National Institute of Neurological and Communicative Disorders and Stroke (NINCDS) criteria for probable AD with Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of 10-24
  • Inclusion Criteria MCI:
  • Male or female >=50 years of age
  • Have a Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) of 0.5
  • MMSE >24
  • Exclusion Criteria:
  • Have a history or current diagnosis of other neurologic disease
  • Have had or currently have a diagnosis of other neurodegenerative disease
  • Have participated in experimental therapy targeted to amyloid plaque

Readers:

•Private nuclear medicine physicians with no prior training in reading florbetapir-PET scans

Treatment and study plan

florbetapir F 18

Drug

IV injection, 370MBq (10mCi), single dose (intervention for Study A05 participants, source of scans for this study)

Other names: 18F-AV-45, Amyvid, florbetapir

Primary outcomes

  1. Inter-reader Agreement - Median Kappa Statistic

    Time frame: 50-60 min after injection

    Seven readers blinded to all clinical information using the binary read methodology (amyloid positive/negative). Simple kappa statistics were calculated for each reader versus the other 6 readers. Primary outcome measure was the median kappa of each reader versus the other 6 readers.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall Inter-reader Agreement - Fleiss' Kappa

    Time frame: 50-60 min after injection

    Seven readers blinded to all clinical information using the binary read methodology (amyloid positive/negative). Fleiss' kappa was calculated across all inter-reader comparisons.
