Diagnostic difference between tau-PET with [18F]RO948 and amyloid-PET in individuals with cognitive impairment.
Summary description of the study
In this study, we will evaluate the deposits of toxic proteins using 2 radiotracers (injected molecules to visualize deposits by PET) RO948 for the Tau protein and Vizamyl for the Amyloid protein.
(BASEC)
Intervention under investigation
In the presence of cognitive disorders (language, reasoning, perception, decision-making, attention, memory, etc.), positron emission tomography (PET) allows for the evaluation of toxic protein deposits in the brain, particularly amyloid and tau protein, and helps to understand the role they play in neurodegeneration.

Age between 50 and 85 years Diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment MRI performed within the last 6 months Prescription of a diagnostic amyloid PET/CT. (BASEC)
Exclusion criteria
- Presence of psychiatric disorders, extensive white matter lesions, or other signs of vascular dementia. - Insufficient visual and auditory acuity to allow for neuropsychological testing. - Participation in previous clinical trials on Alzheimer's disease that may affect amyloid and/or tau brain burden. - Participation in other trials or studies not compatible with the [18F]RO948 imaging study. - Implants and ferromagnetic devices (including implants or devices held in place by sutures, granulation or tissue growth, fixation devices, or by other means) are not eligible for MRI. - Women of childbearing age must not be pregnant (negative urinary β-hCG level on the day of imaging) or breastfeeding at the time of screening.

Inclusion/Exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Written Inform Consent to participating.
- 50 to 85 years of age
- a diagnosis of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI=at least one pathological
neuropsychological test but no functional impairment based on the Amsterdam IADL
score) or mild dementia (both cognitive and functional impairments)
- availability of MRI within 6 months before screening

investigator.
Exclusion Criteria:
- The presence of psychiatric disorders, extensive white matter lesions or other
stigmata of vascular dementia.
- Visual and auditory acuity inadequate for neuropsychological testing.
- Enrolment in previous clinical trials for AD potentially affecting amyloid and/or
tau brain load
- Enrolment in other trials or studies not compatible with [18F]RO948 Imaging study.
- Ferromagnetic implants and devices (including implants or devices held in place by
sutures, granulation or ingrowth of tissue, fixation devices, or by other means) not
eligible for MRI scanning.
- Women of childbearing potential must not be pregnant (negative urine -hCG on the
day of imaging) or breast feeding at screening (ICTRP)

Primary and secondary end points
Difference between tau-PET with [18F]RO948 and amyloid PET in the change of physician's diagnostic confidence (50-100% visual analogue scale) across time;Difference between tau-PET with [18F]RO948 and amyloid PET in the changes in etiological diagnoses across time (i.e., from Alzheimer disease (AD) to non-AD, or from non-AD to AD). (ICTRP)
Accuracy of clinical and biomarker-based diagnoses;Amyloid-PET and tau-PET predictivity of cognitive decline and dementia onset;Absence of adverse events (ICTRP)
