Scientists test new way to see protein clumps in brain diseases
NCT ID NCT07380204
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new PET scan tracer to measure levels of a protein called Hsp90 in the brain. Hsp90 helps proteins fold correctly, and problems with this process are linked to Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and ALS. Researchers will scan 48 healthy volunteers and patients to see if the tracer can detect differences in Hsp90 levels, which may help develop future treatments.
