Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) for Agitation in Dementia (AD)
This study will explore the effect of ECT treatments plus usual care (ECT+UC) in reducing severe agitation in patients with moderate to severe dementia including Alzheimer's Disease, Vascular dementia, Frontotemporal dementia, and Dementia with Lewy Bodies. The study will also determine the tolerability/safety outcomes of ECT+UC.
Combined Brain Stimulation and Methylphenidate Treatment for Apathy in Dementia
This study evaluates whether the combined treatment of methylphenidate and non-invasive brain stimulation, called intermittent theta burst stimulation, can effectively treat apathy in individuals with Alzheimer's disease or mixed AD/vascular dementia
Daridorexant for Alzheimer Disease Prevention
This study will evaluate whether daridorexant, a DORA sleep medication, can support brain health by promoting the clearance of proteins linked to the development and progression of Alzheimer's disease. The trial is preventive and is open to participants who do not have Alzheimer's disease dementia, regardless of whether or not …
Deep Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) of the Precuneus for Alzheimer Disease (AD)
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if using deep repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) targeting the precuneus is feasible, tolerable, and potentially efficacious for memory in Probable Alzheimer's Dementia. Previous work studying rTMS in Alzheimer's is mixed, but recent work studying rTMS of the precuneus is encouraging …
Semantic Recognition Task (SRT) in Alzheimer Disease
The goal of this study is to observe the outcomes of a semantic recognition task in Alzheimer Disease and discuss what this might add to clinical practice.
Innate Immunity Stimulation Via TLR9 in Early AD
This single-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will recruit in total 39 participants with either Mild Cognitive Impairment due to Alzheimer's disease (MCI) or Mild Alzheimer's disease dementia (mild AD). There will be 3 Dose levels. An initial cohort of 13 subjects will be randomized to a Dose level 1 (0.1 mg/kg …
Safety Of Nrtis for Alzheimer's Therapeutic Advancement in Singapore Study
Recent studies have identified an association between Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and an expansion of DNA content in the brain (prefrontal cortex). This additional DNA content appears to be derived from reverse transcriptase (RT) activity that incorporates genomic cDNAs (gencDNAs) into chromosomes, resulting in multiple copies of full length and shorter …
Clinical Trial Protocol: Alzheimer's Dementia Underlying Encephalopathy
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if utilizing the Quest AD-Detect blood test, while patient's are hospitalized for a cognitive diagnosis (such as delirium or encephalopathy), will result in an earlier diagnosis of underlying Alzheimer's disease. Will this blood test have the ability to distinguish between Alzheimer's …
PET Imaging of Phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) in Volunteers With Alzheimer Disease (AD) or Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI)
Background About 5 million adults in the United States have age-related brain disorders. These include Alzheimer disease (AD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and other dementias. The number of people with these disorders will likely increase as the population ages and life span increases. Inflammation is thought to play a role …
Dexmedetomidine Transdermal Systems (DMTS) Treatment for Agitation Associated With Dementia of the Alzheimer's Type
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of DMTS on frequency and severity of agitation associated with dementia of the Alzheimer's type, compared with placebo.
