Tau PET Imaging

for Opioid Use Disorder

The investigators plan to enroll up to 60 adult subjects in this study. There will be three groups of up to 20 subjects each in this study. Group 1: individuals with OUD and a history of at least one opioid-related OD in the past 5 years that required naloxone treatment reversal: OUD/OD+ Group 2: individuals with OUD without a lifetime history of opioid-related OD OUD/OD- Group 3: Healthy controls without a lifetime OUD: HCs PET/CT imaging will be used to evaluate the uptake of tau in the brain using the investigational radiotracer \[18F\]PI-2620. Each subject will have one \[18F\]PI-2620 positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scan performed.

Diagnostic Imaging

for Tauopathies

This current protocol will provide the key data to help determine the specificity of our to-be-developed radiotracers by implementing a multi-site diagnostic assessment core and PET imaging of A-beta amyloid (may be completed at some sites as part of another protocol) that is commonly deposited in the brains of people with Parkinson's Disease (PD), Multiple System Atrophy (MSA), Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) or Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) as well as healthy controls. This multicenter U19 grant is centered at U Pennsylvania (U Penn) (PI: Robert Mach) in collaboration with U Pittsburgh (Pitt), Yale University, U of California at San Francisco (UCSF) and Washington University in St. Louis (WU). U Penn will act as the single IRB of Record (sIRB) for this multi-center project and subjects will be recruited from all sites.
