NCT ID NCT07457736

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study is testing a new radioactive tracer called [18F]GATT-44 to see how well it can image GABA transporters in the brain using PET scans. The goal is to understand how the tracer moves through the body and binds to brain cells, and to measure the radiation exposure. About 32 healthy adults aged 18 to 60 will participate. This is not a treatment study—it aims to improve future brain research and diagnostic tools.

Able to read and write, able to communicate effectively with the investigator, and comply with all study requirements, restrictions, and directions of the research staff; 3. Male or female, aged 18 to 60, at screening; 4. In good general health as evidenced by medical history, physical examination, ECG, serum/urine biochemistry, hematology, and serology tests; 5.
