Abstract

Provided are imaging agents comprising a compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and methods of their use.

Claims (17)

1. A compound which is:

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

2. A compound which is:

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof,

wherein the compound, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is labeled with one or more positron-emitting radionuclides.

3. The compound of claim 2 , wherein said one or more positron-emitting radionuclides are selected from: 11 C, 13 N, 15 O, and 18 F.

4. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the compound of claim 2 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

5. A method of generating diagnostic images in an individual comprising administering an effective amount of a compound of claim 2 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to an individual, and generating an image of at least a part of said individual.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein generating an image of at least a part of said individual comprises generating an image to detect a presence or absence of huntingtin protein (HTT protein) monomers or aggregates in a brain of said individual; and detecting a presence or absence of a pathologic process.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein said HTT protein monomers or aggregates are present in the basal ganglia of said brain of said individual.

8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the pathologic process is a neurodegenerative disease.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the neurodegenerative disease is chosen from Alzheimer's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease, Prion disease, and spinocerebellar ataxias.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the neurodegenerative disease is Huntington's disease (HD).

11. The method of claim 5 , wherein said effective amount of said compound comprises from about 0.1 to about 20 mCi.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein said effective amount of said compound is about 10 mCi.

13. The method of claim 5 , wherein said generating an image comprises positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, PET with concurrent computed tomography imaging (PET/CT), PET with concurrent magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI), or a combination thereof.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein said generating an image comprises PET imaging.
