The Neurobiology of Two Distinct Types of Progressive Apraxia of Speech
The purpose of this study is to identify and distinguish two different types of Progressive Apraxia of Speech through clinical imaging and testing.
Ambroxol in New and Early DLB, A Phase IIa Multicentre Randomized Controlled Double Blind Clinical Trial
This is a confirmatory investigational medicinal product (IMP) study to investigate the effects on cognition, functional decline and on neuropsychiatric symptoms of the Glucocerebrosidase (GCase) enhancing chaperone ambroxol in participants diagnosed with prodromal and early dementia with Lewybodies (DLB).
Comparing Antipsychotic Medications in LBD Over Time
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether treatment with pimavanserin or quetiapine is associated with a greater improvement in psychosis when used in a routine clinical setting to treat hallucinations and/or delusions due to Parkinson's disease (PD) or dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) - collectively referred to …
Safety and Efficacy of AR1005 in Patients with Lewy Body Disease
This study is a phase 2a, single-center, double-blind and randomized clinical trial that evaluates the safety and efficacy of AR1005 administration in 60 patients with cognitive impairment due to Lewy body disease. The study evaluates whether the administration of AR1005 in patients with cognitive impairment due to Lewy body disease …
A Study of Donanemab (LY3002813) in Participants With Early Cognitive Decline (TRAILBLAZER-ALZ 7)
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate whether treatment with donanemab slows the progression of cognitive (how we think, learn, remember, pay attention, and make decisions) and functional (how we are able to perform daily activities) decline. For each participant, the study will last one and a half …
Cognitive Screening Made Easy for PCPs - Administrative Supplement
This project will facilitate early detection of cognitive decline in older adults through development and implementation of an automated risk assessment and cognitive screening tool for use in primary care. By providing an automated tool developed specifically to address the needs of PCPs, it will be easier to screen for …
The Pain Reduction Using Immersive Virtual Reality During Wound Care Evaluation Study at Maimonides (PRISM) - Pilot Study
This study will test whether immersive virtual reality (iVR) can reduce pain and discomfort during wound care for residents living in long-term care (LTC). Pressure ulcers are common and painful among older adults, and dressing changes often cause additional distress. Up to 20 residents at the Donald Berman Maimonides Geriatric …
Enhancing Language Function in Aphasia
Aphasia is an acquired impairment of language, that commonly results from damage to language areas in the brain (typically the left side of the brain). This impairment is seen in many aspects of language, including understanding, speaking, reading and writing. It is estimated that about 2 million individuals are currently …
Disease Biosignatures in ALS/FTD Spectrum: New Impactful Biological Perspectives Beyond Clinical Approaches
Diagnosis of ALS/FTD disease spectrum is challenging because it largely relies on clinical symptoms. Identifying novel biomarkers is essential for a paradigm shift towards a more precise biological-based diagnosis. To achieve this aim, having access to proper specimens and analytical methods is crucial. Our team of experts in neurology, biology, …
Identification of Prodromal Neurodegeneration in Serotonergic-Induced REM Sleep Behavior Disorder
This project will test the hypotheses that people with 5-HT RBD have systemic alpha- synuclein pathology, prodromal DLB signs, and brainstem lesions in regions that control REM sleep. AIM 1 will seek to detect abnormally phosphorylated alpha- synuclein aggregates on targeted skin biopsy in a cohort of people with 5-HT …
