The amyloid-beta peptide has been evaluated across numerous clinical trials spanning Phase 1, Phase 2, and Phase 3 investigations. These studies primarily focus on neurodegenerative and cognitive disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, mild cognitive impairment, post-stroke dementia, vascular mild cognitive impairment, Parkinson's disease, and Down syndrome, as well as systemic conditions like transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis. Research initiatives sponsored by commercial organizations such as AstraZeneca and Avid Radiopharmaceuticals, alongside academic institutions like Massachusetts General Hospital and Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, demonstrate diverse recruitment statuses ranging from completed to active and recruiting. Prominent diagnostic investigations, such as NCT00692705 and NCT00857532, have utilized positron emission tomography imaging ligands to assess beta-amyloid protein deposition and cognitive dysfunction in patients.
