Filter by:The purpose of this study is to test the effect of ibuprofen on the levels of a number of different proteins (called biomarkers) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), blood, and urine to see whether ibuprofen can influence certain biomarkers associated with the progression of Alzheimer's Disease.
The purpose of this Phase 3 study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 3APS as an add-on therapy to most standard medication for Alzheimer's disease compared to placebo (inactive substance pill) in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease.
This research study will assess whether AAB-001 is safe, well tolerated and effective for use in patients with Alzheimer's Disease. AAB-001 is a new drug that is not available outside this study. AAB-001 is an antibody (a type of protein usually produced by white blood cells to destroy other substances in the body). In Alzheimer's disease a protein called amyloid gathers in the brain and is thought to cause symptoms like memory loss and confusion. It is hoped that AAB-001 will attach to the amyloid protein in your brain and help your body to remove it.
Primary Aim To determine whether; - Donepezil is significantly better than placebo in the management of agitation in Alzheimer's Disease that has not responded to, or is inappropriate for a standardised brief psychosocial treatment Secondary Aims To determine whether; - Donepezil has a significant positive or negative impact upon quality of life compared with placebo - whether there is a significant difference between Donepezil and placebo with respect to cognitive performance - the cost effectiveness of the pharmacological treatment for agitation
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a comprehensive, individualized management approach with caregiver training and medication with memantine will alleviate symptoms in community dwelling patients with moderate to severe Alzheimer's disease.
In this phase I-II parallel design, randomized, double-blind clinical trial we will determine if 3,000 or 30,000 units ingested hrIFN-a prevents deterioration of cognitive functioning in patients with dementia of Alzheimer's type (AD) and whether ingested hrIFN-a treatment decreases acute phase reactants and pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6 in mild to moderate AD. We predict that the novel anti-inflammatory agent ingested human recombinant interferon alpha (hrIFN-a) will modulate inflammation and inhibit the natural history of AD progression. If you are eligible, you will receive Aricept for 5 weeks (donezepil) and thereafter in addition to Aricept either placebo (inactive substance) or interferon alpha at 3,000 or 30,000 units every day for 12 months.
