What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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
Cancelled before anyone took part.

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.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study uses special brain scans (tau PET) to see how anti-amyloid immunotherapy affects tau protein buildup in people with mild Alzheimer's disease. About 135 participants will get two tau PET scans—one before starting treatment and another 12-18 months after finishing it. The goal is to learn whether clearing amyloid plaques also slows tau spread, which could improve future treatments.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
18F-AV-1451 (a radioactive tracer for tau PET scans)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors understand whether anti-amyloid therapies slow tau spread in the brain, guiding future Alzheimer's treatment.
What could go wrong
This is an observational imaging study, not a treatment trial. It may not show clear changes, and results may not apply to all patients.
