Study Summary
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
Inclusion Criteria:
Willing and able to give written informed consent for participation in the trial andable to comply with all trial procedures and requirements.
Male or female participant aged 18 to 75 years, inclusive, at the screening visit.
Body mass index (BMI) ≥ 19 and < 40.0 kg/m2 at the time of the screening visit.
Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must practice abstinence from heterosexualintercourse (only allowed when this is the preferred and usual lifestyle of theparticipant) or must agree to use a highly effective method of contraception with afailure rate of < 1 % to prevent pregnancy from at least 2 weeks prior toadministration of tracer for at least 1 week after the PET imaging examination (orfor at least 1 weak after the last PET imaging examination for those participantsundergoing test/retest PET imaging). In addition, any male partner of a femaleparticipant must, unless he has undergone vasectomy, agree to use a condom duringthe same time period. The following are considered highly effective methods of contraception:
combined (estrogen and progestogen-containing) hormonal contraceptionassociated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, intravaginal, transdermal),
progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, injectable, implantable),
intra-uterine device [IUD]or intra-uterine hormone-releasing system [IUS])WOCBP must refrain from donating eggs until 3 months after the last traceradministration. WOCBP with an exclusive male partner who has undergone vasectomy may choose not touse contraceptives. Women of non-childbearing potential are pre-menopausal females who have undergoneany of the following surgical procedures; hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, orbilateral oophorectomy, or who are post-menopausal defined as 12 months ofamenorrhea (in questionable cases a blood sample with detection offollicle-stimulating hormone [FSH] >25 IU/L is confirmatory). Male participants must be willing to use condom or be vasectomized or practicesexual abstinence from heterosexual intercourse (only allowed when this is thepreferred and usual lifestyle of the participant) to prevent pregnancy and drugexposure of a partner and refrain from donating sperm from the administration oftracer until 3 months after the administration of tracer. Any female partner of anon-vasectomized male participant who is of childbearing potential must usecontraceptive methods with a failure rate of < 1% to prevent pregnancy (see above)from at least 2 weeks prior to administration of tracer to 4 weeks afteradministration of tracer.
