Filter by:The main aim of the study is to characterize and understand the pathological mechanisms underlying the motoric cognitive risk syndrome, which is a predictor of Alzheimer disease.
This is a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, adaptive-design pivotal study of sensory stimulation in subjects with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. Approximately 530 subjects will be randomized to 12 months of daily treatment with either Active or Sham Sensory Stimulation Systems. Efficacy will be measured using the Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study- Activities of Daily Living (ADCS-ADL) assessment and a combined statistical test (CST) of the ADCS-ADL and the Mini-Mental State Exam (MMSE).
This is a phase II, multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial to treat patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) using low-dose irradiation (LDIR). This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of LDIR to whole brain in patients with AD and to determine the potentially applicable radiation dose.
To collect, preserve, and/or distribute annotated biospecimens and associated medical data to institutionally approved, investigator-directed biomedical research to discover and develop new treatments, diagnostics, and preventative methods for specific and complex conditions.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterised by a progressive loss of memory and cognitive function. In the early stages of AD, there is a progressive accumulation of molecules: β-amyloid peptides (Aβ) in the brain. There is a link between the accumulation of Aβ peptides and the deterioration of sleep, but current knowledge does not confirmed this link. The objective of this study is to define whether there is a link between cognitive decline and sleep disorders. If a correlation is found, this could allow earlier treatment of sleep disorders in the longer term in order to slow the development of AD.
This is an open-label, 3-arm study to compare tolerability of three different titration and dosing schedules of the AC-OLE-01-VA formulation of tricaprilin. Following a screening of up to 28 days, eligible participants will be initially randomised to one of 2 arms (Arm 1 or Arm 2). Arms 1 and 2 will be completed in advance of Arm 3 with all subsequent participants allocated to Arm 3.
The overall objective of the study is to evaluate the improvement in patient-perceived quality of life following the use of the Paro robot integrated with traditional intervention in the elderly with dementia.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about neuroimage and biomarkers in the Alzheimer's continuum. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How is the neurovascular coupling during AD pathogenesis? - How is the pattern/mapping of alterations in AD biomarkers? Participants will be observed and visit the research center annually to perform multi-modal MRI, PET, neuropsychological tests, and blood tests.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of SAGE-718 on cognitive performance in participants with Alzheimer's Disease.
The overall aim of this study is to pilot test Promoting Positive Care Interactions (PPCI) with the goal of establishing a feasible and culturally responsive approach to optimize care interactions between staff (nursing, activity, housekeeping, and dining service staff) and residents with ADRD in assisted living facilities (ALFs), and further improve select resident, staff, and facility outcomes. PPCI is a non- pharmacological four-step approach consisting of (1) stakeholder engagement in developing facility specific goals; (2) environment and policy assessments; (3) flexible staff education; and (4) ongoing mentorship, motivation, and support (in-person visits and text messages) for staff to optimize care interactions.
