There is lack of information on the risk factors of accelerated cognitive decline in older people with Alzheimer disease (AD). The extent of neurodegeneration and white matter disease has been reported to be important factors. In addition there may be biomarkers e.g. inflammatory cytokines that can contribute to cognitive decline. …
This study is an open-label, multi-center, non-randomized pivotal Phase 3 study to assess the efficacy and safety of PET imaging with \[18F\]PI-2620 for detection of tau deposition in subjects with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and controls during lifetime when compared to histopathology obtained after death and completion of brain autopsy.
A medicine that is FDA-approved for bone marrow stimulation (called sargramostim) will be tested for its safety and efficacy in individuals with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease over a six month treatment period.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the ExAblate Model 4000 Type 2.0 System as a tool to disrupt the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in patients with probable Alzheimer's Disease (AD).
Nighttime agitation in persons with Alzheimer's disease causes patient suffering, distresses caregivers, and often results in prescriptions for harmful antipsychotics. Effective treatments are lacking because of limited knowledge of the etiology of nighttime agitation. The investigators propose a clinical trial to better elucidate whether a sleep disorder, restless legs syndrome, …
This study will examine the overall capacity of people with Alzheimer's disease learning fall-resistant skills from perturbation training.
This research project aims to understand the brain mechanisms behind the manifestation of psychotic symptoms in Alzheimer´s disease (AD), and nature of the unique relationship with tau pathology. Amongst the cognitive manifestations of psychosis are impairments related to frontal circuits (social cognition, working memory and executive function deficits). The investigator's …
This study involves a brain positron emission tomography (PET) scan with a new, investigational radioactive tracer called \[11C\]-CS1P1 to identify inflammation in the brain by testing with healthy older adults and with cognitively impaired older adults.
This is a controlled investigation, with randomization of the patients, which aims at demonstrating the efficacy of device RGn600 in treating patients with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD). RGn600 is a non-invasive medical device which is applied on the head (helmet) and on the abdomen (abdominal belt). It combines 2 technologies: …
The purpose of this research is to see how sleep and exercise affects dementia risk over time.
