NCT04640077
The main goals of this study are to further determine whether the study drug donanemab is safe and effective in participants with Alzheimer's disease and to validate neuropsychological assessments administered over videoconferencing
NCT03507790
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group 36 week multicenter Phase 2 study of two doses of CT1812 in adults with mild to moderate Alzheimer's Disease (AD).
NCT05532657
The ACHIEVE Brain Health Follow-Up Study is a 3-year follow-up to the Aging and Cognitive Health Evaluation in Elders (ACHIEVE) randomized study to determine the long-term effect of hearing intervention vs. successful aging/delayed hearing intervention on rates of cognitive decline and incident mild cognitive impairment or dementia.
NCT07224139
Blood-based ADRD biomarkers show tremendous promise as a non-invasive method to predict and diagnose ADRD. We will measure changes in these biomarkers to determine whether their ability to predict ADRD differs by sex or by other characteristics, and develop a sex-specific ADRD risk score for personalized medicine and clinical trials.
NCT03489278
The purpose of the Clinical Procedures To Support Research (CAPTURE) study is to utilize information collected in the medical record to learn more about a disease called amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and related disorders.
NCT06874621
This study is to be conducted in participants with early Alzheimer's Disease to test VY7523, a new drug being researched for treatment of Alzheimer's Disease. This study will look at how safe the drug is and how it works in the brain. It was first tested in normal, healthy participants who volunteered to participate. The study will look at three different dose levels, starting with the lowest dose first and moving to higher doses and more participants after safety has been reviewed by doctors and researchers. Some patients will receive drug while others will receive placebo. This will help to better compare how the drug works between participants receiving drug and placebo. The study will last up to 6 months for the lower dose groups and 12 months for the highest dose group.
NCT05318976
The goal of this Phase 2 Alzheimer's study is to determine whether 1.0 mg/kg XPro1595 confers a benefit on cognition, function, and biomarkers of white matter and to further evaluate safety and tolerability. The objectives of this study are to determine the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of XPro1595 in patients with early ADi.
NCT05189210
The current study is being conducted by the Sponsor to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GV1001 (0.56 mg and 1.12 mg) administered subcutaneously as a treatment for mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD). Studies using in vivo and in vitro AD models have shown that GV1001 inhibits neurotoxicity, apoptosis, and the production of reactive oxygen species induced by amyloid beta (Aβ) in neural stem cells by mimicking the extra-telomeric functions of human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT). In nonclinical studies, using both mild (early stage) and severe (late stage) AD mouse models, GV1001 was shown to improve cognitive function and memory, as well as significantly reduce the amount of Aβ and tau proteins. The multifunctional effect of GV1001 makes it a promising therapeutic option for the treatment for AD. In a completed Phase 2 study conducted in Korea, GV1001 showed significant improvement in change from baseline of Severe Impairment Battery score at Week 24 and demonstrated a clinically acceptable safety profile in patients with moderate to severe AD.
NCT05150990
The purpose of this project is to test the impact of different forms of technology (virtual reality vs. video chat) on quality of life and family relationships in older adults who reside in senior living communities and an adult child who lives at a distance. The study will also investigate whether responses to the technology and quality of life outcomes depend on older adults' level of cognitive impairment.
NCT05741853
Difficulties with speech and language are the first and most notable symptoms of primary progressive aphasia (PPA). While there is evidence that demonstrates positive effects of speech-language treatment for individuals with PPA who only speak one language (monolinguals), there is a significant need for investigating the effects of treatment that is optimized for bilingual speakers with PPA. This stage 2 efficacy clinical trial seeks to establish the effects of culturally and linguistically tailored speech-language interventions administered to bilingual individuals with PPA. The overall aim of the intervention component of this study is to establish the relationships between the bilingual experience (e.g., how often each language is used, how "strong" each language is) and treatment response of bilinguals with PPA. Specifically, the investigators will evaluate the benefits of tailored speech-language intervention administered in both languages to bilingual individuals with PPA (60 individuals will be recruited). The investigators will conduct an assessment before treatment, after treatment and at two follow-ups (6 and 12-months post-treatment) in both languages. When possible, a structural scan of the brain (magnetic resonance image) will be collected before treatment in order to identify if brain regions implicated in bilingualism are associated with response to treatment. In addition to the intervention described herein, 30 bilingual individuals with PPA will be recruited to complete behavioral cognitive-linguistic testing and will not receive intervention. Results will provide important knowledge about the neural mechanisms of language re-learning and will address how specific characteristics of bilingualism influence cognitive reserve and linguistic resilience in PPA.
