CANF-Comb-II PET-MR in Atherosclerosis Multisite
Sponsor: Washington University School of Medicine
Summary
The goal of this observational study is to learn more about plaque biology in asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis (ACAS) patients through imaging. The main questions it aims to answer are: * To determine the ability of 64Cu-CANF-Comb positron emission tomography (PET) to risk stratify ACAS patients for stroke event, to include transient ischemic attack or remote ipsilateral intervention. * To further understand the role of Natriuretic Peptide Receptor C (NPRC) in the evolution of carotid atherosclerosis. Participants will be asked to undergo a carotid PET-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination to assess whether the carotid atherosclerosis uptake of 64Cu-CANF-Comb as measured by PET-MRI correlates with patient outcomes (stroke, transient ischemic attack, or remote ipsilateral intervention).

Interventions
64Cu-25%-CANF-Comb
Patients treated with OMT alone that are not treated with CEA will receive an intravenous injection of 2-6 mCi of 64Cu-25%-CANF-Comb radiotracer for PET/MR imaging at the initial imaging visit and at 12-18 months, or earlier if they develop symptoms. While 12-18 months is the preferred window for repeat imaging, if imaging during this time frame is not achievable, the patient may return anytime throughout the remainder of the study.
64Cu-25%-CANF-Comb
Patients treated with OMT and CEA will receive an intravenous injection of 2-6 mCi of 64Cu-25%-CANF-Comb radiotracer for PET/MR imaging at the initial imaging visit.
