Nabilone for Agitation Blinded Intervention Trial
This study will look at whether nabilone is an effective treatment for agitation in Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients. Agitation is highly prevalent in patients with AD and is one of the most distressing and challenging-to-treat symptoms. Agitation is associated with faster progression to institutionalization, increased caregiver burden, poorer quality of …
The Effects of Specific tDCS on Cognition in MCI
INTRODUCTION Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a critical transitional stage in dementia related disorders. Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), and the lateral parietal (LPC) cortex are subjected to neuropathological changes in MCI. Parietal memory network (PMN) integrity alterations and default mode network (DMN) alterations also occur in MCI. Transcranial direct current …
Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of BMS-986368, for the Treatment of Agitation in Participants With Alzheimer's Disease
This is a study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of BMS-986368, a FAAH/MAGL inhibitor, for the treatment of agitation in participants with Alzheimer's Disease.
An Exploratory Study to Confirm Efficacy of Modified Deep Cervical Lymphovenous Anastomosis (LVA) in Alzheimer's Disease/ Parkinson's Disease
Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) are characterized by pathological protein accumulation in the brain-Aβ/tau in AD and α-synuclein in PD. Recent studies have indicated that age-related lymphatic vessel atrophy compromises the metabolic clearance capacity of meningeal lymphatic vessels, potentially disrupting the equilibrium between production and clearance of Aβ/α-synuclein, …
The Effect of Urolithin A (Mitopure®) on Alzheimer's Disease
The overall aim of MITO-AD is to evaluate if the nutritional supplement urolithin A is associated with favourable changes in Alzheimer's disease-related biomarkers, cognitive measures, and safety/tolerability outcomes in symptomatic patients with early-stage, biomarker-defined Alzheimer's disease. To do this, we will use two groups: one will be given standard care …
Brain Blood Flow and Sugar Transport in Alzheimer's Disease With and Without Diabetes - A Pilot Imaging Study
Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia and affects a growing number of older adults. Although harmful proteins build up in the brain, we still do not fully understand why some brain regions are affected earlier or more severely than others. Many people with Alzheimer's disease also have …
Senicapoc in Alzheimer's Disease
Development of novel disease-modifying therapies for Alzheimer's disease (AD) remains of paramount importance. This study will be a Phase II randomized clinical trial testing Senicapoc in patients with mild or prodromal AD. This will be a small Proof of Mechanism study to prove biological activity and target engagement in humans …
Music Therapy for Patients With Alzheimer's Disease
This study is designed to assess the feasibility that individualized reminiscence-based virtual music therapy sessions can enhance autobiographical memory, mood, and cognition in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild dementia due to Alzheimer's Disease (AD). 60 patients with MCI or mild dementia due to AD will receive two …
Cognitive Vulnerability to Stress in Individuals at Risk for Alzheimer's Disease
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about how genetics and the response to stress predicts cognitive decline in individuals with mild cognitive impairment. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: Does the hormone response to acute stress predict the degree of cognitive impairment following acute stress? …
Neurofilament Light Chains and Cognitive Impairment in Chronic Psychiatric Disease
The validation of biomarkers allowing the discrimination of cognitive and behavioral disorders of psychiatric origin from those of neurodegenerative origin would facilitate diagnosis and improve patient management. Neurofilaments, which are markers of neuronal lysis, appear to be a promising biomarker. In a previous preliminary study, the investigators demonstrated significantly lower …
