Filter by:This single-blind, three-arm, randomized, controlled trial will assess the impact of messages and financial incentives on the enrollment of demographically diverse individuals to the Alzheimer Prevention Trials (APT) Webstudy. The APT Webstudy is a novel, online registry that employs quarterly cognitive testing using validated platforms. The APT Webstudy implements fully remote assessments, coordinated by the Alzheimer's Therapeutic Research Institute (ATRI) under USC IRB #HS-17-00746. The purpose of the current study is to test whether we can increase enrollment of diverse individuals into the registry. To do this, we will work with Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC), the county public hospital and its affiliated health centers in Contra Costa County, California, to test whether sending messages with and without financial incentives to patients who receive primary care with the health system can increase enrollment to the APT Webstudy. The investigators hypothesize that 1) a certain small financial incentive and an award opportunity based incentive (or a drawing with a prize) will increase enrollment rates of CCHS members into the APT Webstudy relative to the control group. The investigators further hypothesize that the award opportunity incentive will increase the enrollment rate of CCRMC patients into the APT Webstudy more than a certain financial incentive with the same expected value.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate whether a set of algorithms analysing acoustic and linguistic patterns of speech, can predict change in Preclinical Alzheimer's Clinical Composite with semantic processing (PACC5) between baseline and +12 month follow up across all four Arms, as measured by the coefficient of individual agreement (CIA) between the change in PACC5 and the corresponding regression model, trained on baseline speech data to predict it. Secondary objectives include (1) evaluating whether similar algorithms can predict change in PACC5 between baseline and +12 month follow up in the cognitively normal (CN) and MCI populations separately; (2) evaluating whether similar algorithms trained to regress against PACC5 scores at baseline, still regress significantly against PACC5 scores at +12 month follow-up, as measured by the coefficient of individual agreement (CIA) between the PACC5 composite at +12 months and the regression model, trained on baseline speech data to predict PACC5 scores at baseline; (3) evaluating whether similar algorithms can classify converters vs non-converters in the cognitively normal Arms (Arm 3 + 4), and fast vs slow decliners in the MCI Arms (Arm 1 + 2), as measured by the Area Under the Curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curve, sensitivity, specificity and Cohen's kappa of the corresponding binary classifiers. Secondary objectives include the objectives above, but using time points of +24 months and +36 months; and finally to evaluate whether the model performance for the objectives and outcomes above improved if the model has access to speech data at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 month timepoints.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate whether a set of algorithms analysing acoustic and linguistic patterns of speech can detect amyloid-specific cognitive impairment in early stage Alzheimer's disease, based on archival spoken or written language samples, as measured by the area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curve of the binary classifier distinguishing between amyloid positive and amyloid negative arms. Secondary objectives include (1) evaluating how many years before diagnosis of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) such algorithms work, as measured on binary classifier performance of the classifiers trained to classify MCI vs cognitively normal (CN) arms using archival material from the following time bins before MCI diagnosis: 0-5 years, 5-10 years, 10-15 years, 15-20 years, 20-25 years; (2) evaluating at what age such algorithms can detect later amyloid positivity, as measured on binary classifier performance of the classifiers trained to classify amyloid positive vs amyloid negative arms using archival material from the following age bins: younger than 50, 50-55, 55-60, 65-70, 70-75 years old.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate whether a set of algorithms analysing acoustic and linguistic patterns of speech can detect amyloid-specific cognitive impairment in early stage Alzheimer's disease, as measured by the AUC of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of the binary classifier distinguishing between amyloid positive (Arms 1 and 3) and amyloid negative (Arms 2 and 4) Arms. Secondary objectives include (1) evaluating whether similar algorithms can detect amyloid-specific cognitive impairment in the cognitively normal (CN) and MCI Arms respectively, as measured on binary classifier performance; (2) whether they can detect MCI, as measured on binary classifier performance (AUC, sensitivity, specificity, Cohen's kappa), and the agreement between the PACC5 composite and the corresponding regression model predicting it in all Arms pooled (Wilcoxon signed-rank test, CIA); (3) evaluating variables that can impact performance of such algorithms of covariates from the speaker (age, gender, education level) and environment (measures of acoustic quality).

The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment with lecanemab is superior to placebo on change from baseline of the Preclinical Alzheimer Cognitive Composite 5 (PACC5) at 216 weeks of treatment (A45 Trial) and to determine whether treatment with lecanemab is superior to placebo in reducing brain amyloid accumulation as measured by amyloid positron emission tomography (PET) at 216 weeks of treatment (A3 Trial). This study will also evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of lecanemab in participants enrolled in the Extension Phase.
The purpose of the TRC-PAD study is to develop a large, well-characterized, biomarker-confirmed, trial-ready cohort to facilitate rapid enrollment into AD prevention trials utilizing the APT Webstudy and subsequent referral to in-clinic evaluation and biomarker confirmation. Participants with known biomarker status may have direct referral to the Trial-Ready Cohort. If you are interested in being selected for the TRC-PAD study, you should first enroll in the APT Webstudy (https://www.aptwebstudy.org/welcome).
