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.
Treating Hyperexcitability in AD With Levetiracetam
The aim of this study is to explore the relationship between cortical hyperexcitability, abnormalities of brain network function, and cognitive dysfunction in human patients with AD and whether administration of the antiepileptic medication levetiracetam (LEV) normalizes these measures and improves cognition.
Autologous Activated Adipose-derived Stem Cells (RB-ADSC) Injected Directly Into the Brain for Mild to Moderate Alzheimer's Disease
This is a research study to evaluate the safety of an investigational autologous cell product obtained from participant's own adipose tissue as a possible treatment for Alzheimer disease.
Safety and Efficacy of Plasma Transfusion From Exercise-trained Donors in Patients With Early Alzheimer's Disease
Introduction Given that exercise training reduces the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease (AD), induces changes in the blood composition and has widespread systemic benefits, it is reasonable to hypothesize that exercised plasma may have rejuvenative properties. The main objective is to test safety and tolerability of transfusing exercised plasma (ExPlas) …
A Phase 2, Randomized, Prospective Double-Blind, Single-Center, Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Target Engagement, and Efficacy of PrimeC in Patients With Mild to Moderate Alzheimer's Disease.
20 subjects with mild to moderate AD will be enrolled in the study and randomized at a 1:1 ratio to receive the study drug or placebo tablets, respectively. All subjects will be administered the drug/placebo twice daily (BID), two tablets each time, for 52 weeks. Subjects will be allowed to …
[18F]PI-2620 Phase 3 Histopathological Study
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.
Effect of Astragalus Membranaceus on the Improvement of Cognitive Function in Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most common cause of dementia, is characterized by cognitive impairment, mental and behavioural abnormalities, and social dysfunction. Current treatments can only delay the progression of AD, not cure it completely. In vitro studies have shown that Astragalus has toxic effects such as anti-hypoxia injury of nerve …
Effectiveness of a High-intensity Interval Exercise Program in People With Alzheimer's
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a the most common type of dementia. It is a progressive disease that affects different areas of human behavior at the cognitive, social, physical and metabolic levels. The benefits of a High-Intensity Interval Exercise Program (HIIT) has been proven not only in healthy older adults, but …
Study on the Effect of 40 Hz Non-Invasive Light Therapy System
The ALZLIGHT STAGE III Study is a continuation of the ALZLIGHT Pilot - Study on Safety, Feasibility and Neural Activation of Non-Invasive Light Therapy System. As with the first two stages, this study will examine whether entrainment of 40 Hz neural oscillation by novel 40 Hz Invisible Spectral Flicker is …
