Filter by:The purpose of this study is to examine the safety and effectiveness of two anti-oxidant treatment regimens in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. The anti-oxidant treatments include vitamin E + C + alpha-lipoic acid, and Coenzyme Q (CoQ).
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of AAB-001 passive immunization in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD).
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of the herb sage in improving the mental function of individuals with Alzheimer's disease. Study hypothesis: The administration of sage will improve cognitive function in patients with mild Alzheimer's disease.
The purpose of this study is to examine how brain imaging technology can be used with other tests to measure the progression of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and early Alzheimer's disease (AD). This information will aid future clinical trials by providing a standard assessment tool to measure the effects of treatments being studied.
This study was designed to evaluate the impact of a Telehealth Education Program (TEP) on outpatient veterans with moderate to severe dementia and their spouse caregivers. The TEP is a program of education, coping skills, problem solving and support presented to caregivers of veterans with dementia by teleconference in 10 weekly, one-hour sessions. The TEP was based on a stress and coping model aimed to enhance the knowledge, skills and feelings of support of the caregivers who participated.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the change in cognitive ability and activities of daily living in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) as measured by specific evaluations during 18 months of dosing.
Alzheimer's disease is a medical illness that damages the brain and causes problems with memory, mood and behavior. A substance called acetylcholine (ACh), which is naturally produced in the body, plays an important role in the normal functioning of the brain. In subjects with Alzheimer's disease, the level of ACh is greatly reduced. Currently, there are three commonly prescribed drugs used for treating the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease by helping to maintain the level of ACh in the brain. This study will evaluate how much each of these drugs changes the levels of certain brain chemicals that are known to, or may play an important role in, Alzheimer's disease and its symptoms.

The purpose of this study is to assess xaliproden's potential capacity of slowing the deterioration of cognitive and global functions in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. The patients participating in this study will take orally once daily xaliproden or placebo (inactive substance pill).
