Clinical Trial: 18F-Dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Study to Explore Dopamine Synthesis Capacity in the Whole Striatum After 2 Weeks of Treatment With Ralmitaront or Placebo in Participants With Schizophrenia

U.S., March 18 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06880328) titled '18F-Dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Study to Explore Dopamine Synthesis Capacity in the Whole Striatum After 2 Weeks of Treatment With Ralmitaront or Placebo in Participants With Schizophrenia' on March 11.

Brief Summary: This study is an exploratory proof of mechanism (POM) study using PET/functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in a 2-period, 2-sequence, crossover design. The aim of the study is to confirm the potential of Ralmitaront to decrease dopamine synthesis capacity (DSC) - as measured by levels of F-DOPA - in the striatum of participants with schizophrenia.
