Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine if oxaloacetate (OAA) is safe and tolerable at doses of up to 2 grams per day in people with Alzheimer's disease (AD).
This study seeks to confirm a demonstrated treatment effect of intepirdine (RVT-101) as an adjunctive therapy to donepezil for the treatment of subjects with Alzheimer's disease.
The purpose of this randomized controlled pilot study is to examine the preliminary effectiveness, feasibility, and potential treatment moderators (i.e., behavioral symptoms and spousal relationship status) of a newly developed intervention for individuals with dementia and their family caregivers that combines elements of the established care consultation (CC) approach with additional counseling modules (CC+C). Outcomes for Veterans with dementia and their family caregivers (e.g., depressive symptoms, care-related burden, quality of life, pleasant events, etc.) will be assessed after 6 months of treatment and again at 12 months.
This is a phase 2a, proof-of-concept, 26-week, double-blind, multicenter, randomized, parallel group, placebo-controlled study to compare the efficacy and safety of treatment with SUVN-502 to placebo treatment in subjects with moderate Alzheimer's disease receiving stable doses of donepezil HCl and memantine HCl.
This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of AADvac1 in the treatment of patients with mild Alzheimer's disease. 60% of participants will receive AADvac1 and 40% of participants will receive placebo.
The study determined the safety of CNP520 in healthy elderly over 3 months. Data relevant for Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic modeling were obtained in order to define the target dose in subsequent efficacy studies.
This study evaluates the effects of the practice of yoga in combination with compassion meditation on the quality of life, attention, vitality and self-compassion of family caregivers of patients with Alzheimer's disease.
This 2-part, open-label study was designed to investigate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of [18F]MK-6240, a Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging agent, for the quantification of neurofibrillary tangle (NFT) deposition in the brain. Brain NFT deposition is a pathologic finding in Alzheimer's Disease (AD), with brain NFT density shown to correlate with the severity of cognitive impairment in AD. The objectives of the study include performing the following with respect to [18F]MK-6240 administered as a PET imaging agent: 1) assess safety and tolerability; 2) determine radiation safety profile; 3) determine optimal imaging protocol parameters for quantification of brain NFTs in AD; 4) compare tracer binding in brain PET scans from participants with AD, participants with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and healthy elderly participants; and 5) evaluate intra-subject test-retest (T-RT) variability of tracer uptake in brain regions of interest.
The study is a randomized, parallel, 4-dose design in subjects with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's Disease. Subjects will be randomized to one of 4 doses of T3D-959. Subjects will be evaluated for changes from baseline in cerebral metabolic rate of glucose (FDG-PET imaging), functional connectivity of the hippocampus (BOLD-fMRI), and cognitive function (ADAS-Cog11 and DSST) as well as assessed for safety and tolerability to T3D-959. An expanded access extension is planed to provide access to study medication to subjects who have completed the main study and requested continued use.
The objective of this study is to identify early and accurate semantics markers of Alzheimer's disease (AD) by using two types of methods. First, the investigator will evaluate semantic processing of patients with AD or related disorders which will be compared to age matched controls by taking neuropsychological tests. Then, the investigator will analyze the effect of contextual word predictability on eye movements in reading sentences with the help of the same participants by using an eye tracker. Both of these methods will be used twice with a time interval of 6 months.
