Alzheimer Disease Clinical Trial
— EOAD-SubtypeOfficial title:
Early-onset Alzheimer's Disease Phenotypes: Neuropsychology and Neural Networks
This study attempts to identify two types of AD by using clinical and cognitive tasks and brain imaging. The subtypes of AD are separated into a "typical" group (memory loss) and a "variant" group (language, visuospatial, and other cognitive difficulties). Performance on the clinical tasks and brain imaging will be compared among the young-onset Alzheimer's disease group, a late-onset Alzheimer's disease group, and a control group.

Primary | Alzheimer's disease Subtype | Neuropsychological testing results for use in a two-stage multivariate diagnostic method that combines the (weighted) test results in order to best discriminate Type 2 AD and typical AD. | Performed at baseline | |
Secondary | Change in overall Neurological profile | Change in performance on neurological tasks between baseline visit and follow-up visit. | Performed at baseline and 1-year follow-up visit | |
Secondary | Brain atrophy in MRI - Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the brain | Images from initial MRI scan taken at baseline visit will be analyzed for atrophy and white matter tract integrity | Performed at baseline visit | |
Secondary | Change in overall Neuropsychological profile | Change in neuropsychological performance over time. | Performed at baseline and 1-year follow-up visit |
