DORA and LP in Alzheimer's Disease Biomarkers
The purpose of this study is to see if the sleep aid, lemborexant, can decrease the amount of amyloid-beta and tau in the blood. Amyloid-beta and tau are proteins involved in the disease process leading to Alzheimer's disease.
Next-Generation alzheImer'S Therapeutics
Is this the right time to use next-generation approaches in Alzheimer's disease (AD)? In recent years, several large clinical trials testing treatments for AD have failed, putting the entire field on a reset. AD drug trials have almost exclusively sought to use antibodies targeted toward misfolded amyloid and tau proteins. …
Dementia Care Partner Hospital Assessment Tool
The purpose of this study is to see whether an adapted questionnaire called the Care Partner Hospital Assessment Tool (CHAT) for care partners of hospitalized patients living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) (CHAT-AD) can help people with dementia receive better care after they go home from the hospital. …
Cognitive Decline in AD
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. …
Tau PET/CT Imaging in the Mismatch Prospective Cohort Study (MPC-TAU)
To collect Tau PET/CT imaging in older adults diagnosed with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) or Alzheimer's Disease (AD) in the Mismatch Prospective Cohort Study (MPC-Tau) study to determine relationship to clinical, cognitive, and other biomarker data. Findings from this study will likely provide insight into the phenotypic variability of Alzheimer's …
Low-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (LIFU) Neuromodulation
This study is a prospective, single-center, single-arm early feasibility study, to establish safety and tolerability of LIFU for neuromodulation in patients with mild cognitive impairment ( MCI) due to Alzheimer's disease.
Aerobic Exercise for Older Adults at Increased Risk of Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias
The estimated annual cost of dementia in Canada is $15 billion, with a projected cumulative economic burden of $800 billion by 2038. Effective prevention of dementia at a population level will need to include lifestyle factors such as promoting higher levels of physical activity. Physical inactivity is a modifiable risk …
Effect of CAFfeine on Cognition in Alzheimer's Disease
Sporadic Alzheimer's disease is a multifactorial illness arising a major medico-economic stakes for our aging societies. There is currently no curative treatment available. Coffee is a complex beverage with psychostimulant properties whose main effective element, caffeine, has a pleiotropic effect on the central nervous system. Caffeine pharmacological properties enable its …
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 …
Combating Alzheimer's Through Sleep and Exercise
The purpose of this research is to see how sleep and exercise affects dementia risk over time.
