Filter by:This clinical trial evaluates the impact of music interventions on caregivers of patients with memory disorders, Alzheimer's disease, dementia and related disorders. This study will follow caregivers of patients within the rehabilitation day care hospital "Memory and Frailty" (Hôpital de Jour de Réadaptation Mémoire et Fragilités), Sainte-Marie Paris Hospital.
The researchers plain to build a large-scale, longitudinal, prospective cohort characterized by TCM dampness syndrome. With the biobank of this cohort the investigators want to find the causality between TCM dampness syndrome and clinical chronic diseases and a new way to treat clinical disease.
The primary objective of this study is to verify the clinical benefit of monthly doses of aducanumab in slowing cognitive and functional impairment as measured by changes in the Clinical Dementia Rating Scale Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB) score as compared with placebo in participants with early Alzheimer's disease.
The Self-care for Dementia Caregivers Study is a behavioral health intervention that uses digital monitoring tools and motivational health coaching to help caregivers of persons with dementia engage in a regular routine of self-care. Participants wear an apple watch for the objective collection of sleep-wake rhythms. They receive personalized feedback on their sleep-wake rhythms via a new app. Health coaches call participants weekly, for 6 weeks to help participants meet their health/sleep goals and promote self-knowledge of regular routines. Participants will help the study team improve the design elements and content of the mobile app. The goal of this intervention is to reduce psychological distress and caregiver burden.
This is a randomized, cross-over study to measure global and clinical impact and level of arousal in subjects suffering from moderate to severe Alzheimer's disease when exposed to emotionally impactful music compared to control intervention.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of seltorexant versus placebo on the sum of Agitation and Aggression domain scores (A plus A) of the Neuropsychiatric Inventory-Clinician rating (NPI-C) in participants with probable Alzheimer's Disease (AD) with clinically significant agitation/aggression.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GV1001 administered subcutaneously in patients with moderate to severe Alzheimer's disease (AD).
Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled pilot study in mild to moderate AD patients to assess the effects of treatment with ECHS AD pulsed electromagnetic treatment device on disease progression. Enrolled patients will be randomized to active or sham device group. They will treat themselves at home three times a day for 15 minutes over 120 days. Primary end points are the The Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale and the Mini-Mental State Exam. Participants will be followed-up for 9 months post-treatment.
The purpose of this study is to determine how feasible it is to deliver an online course to reduce out-of-pocket costs of caregiving and reduce financial stress among Latino family caregivers to a family member living with dementia. The investigators hope that that the results of this study will help to reduce high these out-of-pocket costs and improve financial wellbeing for Latino family caregivers. Caregivers will be asked to to participate in 3 online surveys, in addition to participating in 5, 1.5 hour group-based Zoom learning sessions.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition affecting 6.2 million individuals in the United States, resulting in an annual cost of care of $305 billion. AD is functionally characterized by progressive degeneration of large-scale brain networks (LSBNs), including the default mode network (DMN) presumably from the deposition of amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. Available FDA-approved medications for AD such as donepezil and memantine offer limited benefit and modest impact on quality of life. In combination with resting state functional MRI (rs-fMRI), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) with intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) offers a non-invasive alternative to pharmacotherapy in persons with AD. We propose a pilot trial using rs-fMRI to target dysfunctional LSBNs in early stage AD.
