Memory for Music: Individual Intensive Musical Training in Alzheimer's Disease
This project, called Memory for Music, focuses on the increasing number of people worldwide living with dementia, especially Alzheimer's disease (AD). AD typically starts with memory problems and eventually affects daily activities. Active music interventions, especially singing, have shown positive effects on mood, behavior, and quality of life for people …
Understanding How Alzheimer's Disease Impacts the Therapeutic Response to Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation
There is currently little symptomatic therapy for Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and nothing effective for individuals with Frontotemporal dementia (FTD). However, neuromodulation with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has the potential to be a clinically effective therapy for both AD and FTD. The challenge now is to specify the parameters and …
Cervical Lymphatico-Venous Bypass for Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease - Proof of Concept Study (CLyVeB-AD-1 Study)
Alzheimer's disease (AD), one of the most common causes of dementia in Singapore and the developed world, is a neurodegenerative disorder with high socioeconomic impact. Accumulation of neurotoxic proteins (ie. amyloid, tau) are purported to lead to neuroinflammation, synaptic dysfunction and cognitive decline. The available pharmacotherapy provide limited symptomatic control, …
Nursing Interventions for Alzheimer's Patients During PET/CT Imaging
The impact of nursing Interventions during PET/CT imaging in Alzheimer's patients on image quality and patient satisfaction will be assessed in 200 patients.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation to Slow Down Cognitive Decline in Alzheimer's Disease
New amyloid-targeting drugs for Alzheimer's disease (AD) offer minimal or unclear efficacy and often cause adverse events, highlighting the need for new therapies. In recent years, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has shown increasing success. A recent randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, phase 2 demonstrated promising results from a 24-week rTMS treatment …
Single Dose Escalation Study of CM383 in Healthy Volunteers
This study is a single center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase I clinical study in a single dose escalation to evaluate its safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and immunogenicity of CM383 in male healthy subjects.
A Phase 3 Study of Rotigotine in Combination with Rivastigmine in Mild to Moderate Alzheimer's Disease
This is a 24-week prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center phase III study evaluating efficacy and safety of rotigotine 4mg/24 hrs in combination with rivastigmine 9.5 mg/24 hrs in mild to moderate AD patients. The total study duration per patient from baseline to the end will be 24 weeks. The study …
Health Behavior Change in Midlife Adults at Risk for Alzheimer's Disease
Modifying health behaviors like physical activity level, diet, stress, and mental activity level can lower risk for Alzheimer's disease, but many middle-aged and older adults find it difficult to sustain health behavior changes over the long term. This project will develop a new intervention that educates people about Alzheimer's disease …
Intravenous Infusion of Umbilical Cord Blood as an Adjunctive Treatment for Alzheimer's Disease
This study is a single-center, prospective, double-blind, randomized controlled clinical trial (RCT). Employing a parallel-group design, the trial plans to enroll 30 clinically diagnosed AD patients, who will be randomly assigned via a computerized randomization tool into three equal groups: low-dose, high-dose, and control (10 patients per group). The blinded …
A Study of Potential Disease Modifying Treatments in Individuals at Risk for or With a Type of Early Onset AD Caused by a Genetic Mutation
The purpose is to evaluate the biomarker effect, safety, and tolerability of investigational study drugs in participants who are known to have an Alzheimer's disease (AD)-causing mutation. Stage 1 will determine if treatment with the study drug prevents or slows the rate of amyloid beta (Aβ) pathological disease accumulation demonstrated …
