Efficacy of [18F]Florbetaben PET for Diagnosis of Cardiac AL Amyloidosis

Study Purpose

This is an open-label, multi-center pivotal Phase 3 study to visually and quantitatively assess PET images obtained after single application of 300 MBq [18F]florbetaben and PET scanning of patients with suspected cardiac amyloidosis.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • - Males and females age ≥18 years.
  • - Able to understand, sign and date written informed consent.
  • - Written informed consent must be obtained before any study procedures are performed.
  • - Subjects being considered for a possible diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis by.
  • - 1.
One of the following conditions:
  • - Established systemic amyloidosis without proven cardiac involvement, - Known plasma cell dyscrasia (MGUS, multiple myeloma), - Pathological free light chain levels in urine or serum, - Presence of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.
  • - 2.
AND one of the following parameters, indicative of cardiac manifestation:
  • - Mean (left ventricular (LV) wall + septum) thickness >12mm as measured by echocardiography or CMR in absence of other known cause of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), - NT-proBNP >335 ng/L (in case a value for NT-proBNP is not available, BNP > 81ng/L may be used instead) - Planned diagnostic procedure to establish diagnosis and cardiac involvement (e.g., endomyocardial biopsy or extracardiac biopsy in conjunction with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging/echocardiography or bone scintigraphy) - Female subjects must be documented by medical records or physician's note to be either surgically sterile (by means of hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, or bilateral oophorectomy) or post-menopausal for at least 1 year (no menses for 12 months without an alternative medical cause).
If they are of child-bearing potential, they must commit to use of a highly effective contraceptive measure for at least one week following the PET scan (including combined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, intravaginal or transdermal), progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, injectable or implantable), intrauterine device, intrauterine hormone-releasing system, bilaterial tubal occlusion, vasectomised parner or secual abstinence).
  • - Male subjects and their partners of childbearing potential must commit to the use of a highly effective method of contraception for a minimum of 90 days following the PET scan (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, intravaginal or transdermal), progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, injectable or implantable), intrauterine device, intrauterine hormone-releasing system, bilaterial tubal occlusion, male subjects with vasectomy or sexual abstinence) - Male subjects must commit to not donate sperm for a minimum of 90 days after the PET scan.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • - Any known allergic reactions or hypersensitivity towards any compound of the study drug.
  • - Severe hepatic impairment (AST/ALT >5 x ULN; bilirubin >3 x ULN) - Inability to lay flat for up to 60 min.
  • - Pregnant, lactating or breastfeeding.
  • - Unwilling and/or unable to cooperate with study procedures.
- Having been administered a radiopharmaceutical within 10 radioactive half-lives prior to study drug administration in this study

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT05184088
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

This is an open-label, multi-center pivotal Phase 3 study to visually and quantitatively assess PET images obtained after single application of 300 MBq [18F]florbetaben and PET scanning of patients with suspected cardiac amyloidosis or with a putative diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis but with remaining diagnostic uncertainty (e.g., unclear etiology or cardiac manifestation) or patients with diagnosis of amyloidosis but unclear cardiac involvement. The diagnostic efficacy of the visual and quantitative assessments of [18F]florbetaben PET images for diagnosis of cardiac AL Amyloidosis will be determined by comparison to the standard of truth (SoT) obtained through standard of care clinical diagnosis.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Experimental: Patients with suspected cardiac amyloidosis

After enrolment, patients will be subjected to diagnostic procedures according to standard of care to resolve diagnostic uncertainties and to clarify possible cardiac involvement. The results of the clinical work-up will be used a standard of truth, i.e. patients with initially suspected cardiac amyloidosis that where subsequently clinically diagnosed with cardiac AL Amyloidosis, cardiac ATTR Amyloidosis, other cardiac Amyloidosis or non cardiac amyloidosis.

Interventions

Drug: - [18F]florbetaben

All enrolled patients will undergo [18F]florbetaben PET imaging.
