[Safety and Effectiveness of NEPTIS Plug-01 and Florbetapir (18F) in Daily Clinical Setting: Based on the Post-Marketing Surveillance Study].

OBJECTIVE: Obtaining the information on safety and effectiveness of radiopharmaceutical synthesizer NEPTIS plug - 01 and florbetapir (18F) injection solution synthesized by NEPTIS plug - 01 from the post marketing surveillance study. METHODS: Regarding the safety evaluation, failure of device and adverse events were recorded. Regarding the effectiveness evaluation, we assessed the quality of PET images and the impact on the clinical diagnosis. RESULT: During the study period, 12 patients were enrolled. No adverse event was reported from those 12 patients. Two events in 2 patients were reported as a failure of device (In a subsequent investigation, those failures were thought to be caused by inadequacy of procedure manual, which has been revised now). For the quality of PET images, all 12 cases were "good" or "excellent", regardless of the positive or negative of amyloid plaque. The attending physician's diagnosis was changed in 9 patients following the PET imaging. CONCLUSION: NEPTIS plug-01 and florbetapir (18F) were safe and has a favorable effectiveness profile in 12 patients under daily clinical setting.
