NCT03594123
Active treatment extension study of the 331-14-213 trial, to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of oral brexpiprazole as treatment in adult participants with agitation associated with dementia of the Alzheimer's type (AAD).
NCT05855863
Recently a new clinical dementia subgroup based on brain imaging, called "diabetes related dementia (DrD)". DrD, unlike Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia, is considered a "controllable" or "modifiable" form of dementia. However, there is currently a lack of corresponding treatment measures. Ginkgo biloba ketone ester tablets are extracts of Ginkgo biloba leaves. Previous studies have shown that they can increase cerebral blood flow, reduce cerebrovascular resistance, improve cerebral circulation, and are beneficial for the treatment of cognitive impairment. This project intends to explore the role of ginkgo ketoester tablets in diabetes related dementia through a multicenter randomized double-blind controlled clinical study.
NCT01661660
Cognitive symptoms are the core feature of Alzheimer's disease. Besides these problems, behavioural and psychological symptoms (BPSD), and an impairment of activities of daily living (IADL) are frequently encountered and usually show an impact on autonomy maintenance, prognostic and care during the prodromal and early stages of the disease. Such symptoms are noticeable before the diagnosis of dementia and their occurrences as well as their intensity increase with the evolution of the disease. Apathy, initially defined as a reduction of motivated behaviours, is the most frequently observed BPSD. Apathy is clinically defined by a significant reduction or complete loss of interest, initiative capacity and emotional blunting. Accordingly, apathy is characterized by diminished goal-directed cognitions and behaviours. Behavioural and psychological assessment relies essentially on neuropsychiatric scales. These are used to gather precise data regarding patient's clinical state from interviews with the patient, the career or from clinical impressions during the consultation. From their apparent simplicity they have made their way into daily clinical practices, yet neuropsychiatric scales are reportedly biased by the assessors' subjectivity. However, some tools whose allow simple, fast and objectively valid assessments are not widely used. Hence, the use of ICT such as actigraphy (wearable device assessing locomotion activities), automatized audio-video recognition and signal analysis from events, may be of interest in addition to current assessment methods. The aim of this study is to implement an objective assessment of goal directed activities and autonomy in an experimental design including predefined actions. The setting includes video cameras, microphones, actigraphic and Galvanic Skin Response sensors for recording and computer-based recognition of events using audio-video data, locomotion data and sinusal variability respectively as well as extracting biomarkers for supporting detection of dementia at early stages and supporting ongoing tracking of the dementia disease state. The following population will be included: patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (n=50), patients with Alzheimer's disease (n=50) and control participants (n=50). This work will provide further objective information for clinical practitioner in order to detect behavioral disturbances such as apathy.
