NCT ID NCT06032026
First seen Nov 19, 2025 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 27 times
Summary
This early-phase study tests a radioactive tracer called 11C-HY-2-15 to see how it spreads through the body and whether it can detect abnormal alpha-synuclein protein in the brains of people with Multiple System Atrophy (MSA). Researchers will compare scans from people with MSA, Parkinson's disease, progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and healthy volunteers. The goal is to improve diagnosis of these brain disorders. About 70 adults aged 40-80 will take part across multiple U.S. sites.
