VIZAMYL (flutemetamol F 18 injection) is a drug used during Positron Emission Tomography (PET) brain scans. It helps doctors detect the presence of amyloid protein, which is associated with Alzheimer's disease and other conditions affecting memory or thinking. A new formulation of this drug, called GE-287, has been developed. This new formulation may offer advantages for patient tolerability and can be produced more reliably and efficiently.
The aim of the study is to determine whether the new formulation works as well as the current one in identifying amyloid in the brain, how it distributes in the body, and whether it is safe for use. The study will measure how much of the study drug goes to different organs (including the brain, heart, liver, and kidneys) and monitor for any side effects.

Analysis of the off-target interaction of amyloid PET tracers with human brain sulfotransferases

Article

Author: Granzotto, Alberto ; Floresta, Giuseppe ; Fullone, Rosa ; Miccoli, Ludovico ; Tomaiuolo, Federica ; Delli Pizzi, Stefano ; Sensi, Stefano L

Abstract:

Background:

Positron emission tomography (PET) tracers targeting amyloid-β (Aβ) are central to the diagnosis and staging of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, growing evidence indicates that these tracers can engage off-target molecules, complicating signal interpretation. Sulfotransferases (SULTs) have been experimentally identified as binding partners of 11C-Pittsburgh Compound-B (PiB), but whether the clinically used fluorinated PiB derivatives interact with brain-expressed SULTs has not been explored.

Objective:

To assess whether PiB and its fluorinated derivatives flutemetamol and flutafuranol interact with the SULT isoforms expressed in the human brain, and to characterize the structural features of these interactions.

Methods:

We combined multi-omic transcriptomic profiling of the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project and the Human Protein Atlas with molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to evaluate the structural interactions of SULT–tracer complexes.

Results:

SULT1A1, SULT1A3, and SULT4A1 were identified as the SULT isoforms predominantly expressed in the human brain, and all three are expressed in the cerebellum, the region used as a reference for Aβ PET signal normalization. Docking and MD simulations showed that all three tracers form energetically comparable complexes within the catalytic pockets of these isoforms, but their dynamic stability varied in an enzyme- and tracer-specific manner. PiB and flutemetamol were stably accommodated in SULT1A1, whereas PiB lost its initial pose in SULT4A1. Flutafuranol showed weaker binding to SULT1A1 but formed stable complexes in SULT1A3 and SULT4A1.

Conclusions:

These findings provide a structural framework for off-target interactions between Aβ PET tracers and brain SULTs and suggest that the intracellular enzymatic environment may contribute to variability in Aβ PET signals beyond fibrillar Aβ deposition.

From image reconstruction to clinical prognosis: A comprehensive analysis of centiloid-based amyloid PET assessment

Article

Author: Mínguez, Fernando ; Prieto, Elena ; Romera, Marta ; Riverol, Mario ; Guillén, Edgar F ; Arbizu, Javier ; Echeveste, Beatriz ; Hirschmüller, Katharina C E ; Fahmi, Rachid ; Pareja, Félix

Abstract:

Purpose:

To investigate the sources of variability in Centiloid (CL) calculations, particularly the influence of image reconstruction and reference region selection, and to examine the relationship between baseline CL scores, visual interpretation and subsequent disease progression.

Methods:

162 aMCI patients who underwent amyloid PET at a single center were retrospectively analyzed. Visual assessment was performed by two nuclear medicine physicians and Centiloid scoring was determined using syngo.MI Neurology Cortical Analysis, using different reference regions (RR) and image reconstruction settings. The CL values were compared against visual interpretation, using a ROC analysis. The value of CL in predicting the onset of Alzheimer's dementia was assessed.

Results:

The use of the whole cerebellum as RR provided the most robust and consistent CL values across reconstruction methods. The RR was critical in the case of flutemetamol, as CL varied in more than 20 units between pons and whole cerebellum. Visual classifications and CL values showed strong concordance (area under the ROC curve: 0.9786) and the CL cut-off value that maximized agreement with visual reading was 28 CL. During follow-up, 49% of patients progressed to AD dementia and CL-based amyloid positivity was a significant predictor of progression.

Conclusion:

Standardized CL quantification using the whole cerebellum as RR enhances the reliability of amyloid PET interpretation across tracers and reconstruction settings. CL values strongly correlate with visual assessment and are predictive of clinical progression. These findings suggest the potential utility of CL quantification in both clinical and research settings.

Discordance in amyloid positivity between visual reads and Centiloids: Impact of white matter uptake

Article

Author: Devanarayan, Viswanath ; Reyderman, Larisa ; Charil, Arnaud ; Kramer, Lynn D ; Irizarry, Michael C ; Reilhac, Anthonin ; Dhadda, Shobha ; Nelson, Todd M

BACKGROUND:

The visual interpretation of amyloid PET scans, or visual read (VR), is the most common technique used in clinical practice to identify the presence of cerebral amyloid plaques. Amyloid status (positive or negative) determined by VR or using a Centiloid (CL) cut-off shows high overall concordance. However, discordant cases can occur where the VR is positive, but the CL is below the positivity cut-off, or vice versa.

OBJECTIVES:

The objective of this analysis was to evaluate the rate of discordance and explore potential causes, particularly the role of amyloid tracer uptake in the white matter (WM), when determining amyloid status using VR and CL in screening for the elenbecestat phase 3 studies in early Alzheimer's disease (AD).

DESIGN:

Amyloid PET scans using either Florbetapir (Amyvid™), Florbetaben (Neuraceq™) or Flutemetamol (Vizamyl™) from 3,232 participants (1507 VR- and 1725 VR+) with cognitive impairment screened for the elenbecestat phase 3 studies in early AD were visually interpreted at screening by trained neuroradiologists and quantified using CL values.

SETTING:

Academic and clinical centers INTERVENTION/MEASUREMENTS: Quantitatively, amyloid positivity was defined as CL > 32.21. The number of positive cortical regions was determined by counting the number of regions with a standardized uptake value ratio (SUVr) that exceeded 1.17. PET SUVr levels in the cerebral WM were measured using an eroded WM region of interest (ROI). Statistical tests were conducted to detect differences among the four concordance groups, defined by the relationship of VR and CL status (positive or negative). Additionally, tests examined the relationship between uptake in the WM and rates and type of discordance. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis and DeLong's test were also used to examine the effect of different tracers on the discordant rates.

RESULT:

Discordance was observed in 6.53% of cases (n=211), with VR+/CL- in 4.61% (n=149) and VR-/CL+ in 1.92% (n=62). VR+/CL- discordant cases had significantly fewer amyloid-positive cortical regions compared to both VR+/CL+ and VR-/CL+ cases. VR-/CL+ cases had a significantly higher WM uptake than VR-/CL- and VR+/CL- cases. Our findings revealed a relationship between WM uptake and rates and types of discordance. High WM uptake can erroneously lead to CL+, due to gray matter (GM) contamination from the WM, and VR- status, due to reduced contrast between WM and GM, resulting in VR-/CL+ cases. Conversely, low WM uptake can result in an underestimation of CL values, inaccurately classifying a scan as CL-, and at the same time, the increased contrast may result in a VR+, thereby increasing the occurrence of discordant VR+/CL- cases.

CONCLUSION:

Variations in WM uptake significantly contribute to discordances by introducing positive or negative bias in CL values and altering the GM to WM contrast, which forms the basis of the VR. Nevertheless, the rates of discordant cases are low and VR represents a robust and validated method to determine the presence of amyloid deposition. VR enables enrolling patients with amyloid beta pathology, as seen on amyloid PET scans, whereas CL scaling was developed to provide standardized units that more consistently characterize longitudinal amyloid‑β change. These findings reflect the complementary roles of VR and CL in amyloid PET evaluation, with implications for refining diagnostic accuracy and disease monitoring in AD clinical trials and practice.
