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 …
tDCS Effect on Psychotic Symptoms in Dementia With Lewy Bodies (DLB), and Impacts on Caregiver Burden
The goal of this pilot prospective study is to evaluate the effect of tDCS on psychotic-like symptoms in patients with Lewy Body Dementia (LBD). The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the effect of tDCS on neuropsychiatric symptoms, especially psychotic-like symptoms? What is the impact of tDCS …
Dynamical Electrophysiology and Neuropathology in Lewy's Bodies Disease
Lewy body disease (LBD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that causes cognitive and behavioral problems. However, it is difficult to diagnose, and its pathophysiology is still not fully understood. The usual diagnostic criteria for LBD have excellent specificity but poor sensitivity. In particular, we lack paraclinical tests that can make a …
Elucidating the Role of Cholinergic Degeneration in Cognitive Fluctuations in Lewy Body Dementia
The proposed study aims to address the critical gaps in understanding the mechanisms of CF (Cognitive Fluctuations) by leveraging recently emerged molecular biomarkers, advanced neuroimaging techniques to assess measures of cholinergic degeneration, and synchronous EEG and assessments of attention. One of the overarching innovations of study is combining all of …
Language and Lewy Body Diseases: Sentence Comprehension Problems and Modifying Noninvasive Brain Stimulation Treatment
Lewy body diseases (LBDs) represents a group of neurodegenerative disorders characterized by the abnormal accumulation of aggregates of α-synuclein protein leading to the formation of Lewy bodies (LB) and Lewy neurites resulting in cell death. LBDs consists of two major clinical entities - Parkinson's disease (PD) and dementia with LB …
Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation in Lewy Body Dementia
The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety, feasibility, clinical and biological efficacy, and predictors of efficacy of an intervention consisting of transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) in patients with Lewy Body Dementia (DLB). In neurodegenerative diseases, like DLB, the process of neurodegeneration is accompanied by a significant …
Telehealth in Lewy Body Dementia
Lewy body dementia (LBD) is the 2nd most common neurodegenerative dementia in the US. Optimal care requires an interdisciplinary approach, however often faced barriers include rural residence, limited access to specialists, travel distance, limited awareness of resources, and physical, cognitive, and behavioral impairments making travel to appointments challenging. Delivering interdisciplinary …
Personalized Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) in Cognitive Fluctuations of Dementia With Lewy Bodies (DLB): Proof of Concept
The present study is a monocentric, therapeutic clinical trial involving forty patients diagnosed with Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB). The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the feasibility and relevance of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS); a non-invasive neuromodulation technique, with a main emphasis on the evaluation of …
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Treatment With Dementia Patients
An open label pilot study in mild to moderate AD/ADRD patients to assess the effects of treatment with ECHS AD/ADRD pulsed electromagnetic treatment device on disease progression. Enrolled patients will receive active devices. They will treat themselves at home three times a day for 15 minutes over 120 days. Primary …
Social-cognitive Functioning: Validation of a New Neuropsychological Test
It is now established that disturbances in social cognition are frequent in neurology and that they contribute to the development of social conduct disorders. Their assessment is therefore essential, particularly in order to propose early and adapted care. However, this assessment remains limited today. A new serious game-type test, REALSoCog, …
