A Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of ITI-1284 in the Treatment of Psychosis Associated With Alzheimer's Disease
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, flexible-dose study evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ITI-1284 compared with placebo in the treatment of psychosis in patients with AD.
5-Cog 2.0: A Pragmatic Clinical Trial
Cognitive impairment related to dementia is frequently under-diagnosed in primary care settings. This problem is more prevalent in health disparities populations. The investigators developed the 5-Cog brief cognitive assessment that is simple to use, standardized, takes \<5 minutes, does not require informants, and accounts for major technical, cultural, and logistical …
Creating a Global Research Database That Connects Genetic Information and Long-term Health Data to Improve Personalized Treatment for People With Serious Mental Illness
This observational study aims to provide new insights into the nature and classification of severe mental illness and dementias that in time should help improve diagnostic practise, and enable the development of new and improved treatments. The investigators will achieve aims by gathering information and biological samples from over 50,000 …
Evaluating a National Person-Centered Training Program to Strengthen the Dementia Care Workforce
This project will compare two training models of an evidence-based online dementia care training program for direct care staff in assisted living to a waitlist control: 1) essentiALZ training and 2) essentiALZ training + Project ECHO. It will examine the extent to which each model is implemented and achieves its …
NeuroCare Community Project: A Community Based Prospective Observational Study for Early Alzheimer's Detection in HK
Population aging is reshaping societal dynamics and presents significant global challenges. By 2050, it is projected that 1.6 billion people worldwide will be over the age of 65. Given that aging is the primary risk factor for many common chronic diseases, reducing the burden of age-related illnesses and promoting healthy …
Evaluation of Blood-Based Biomarkers and Remote Cognitive Assessment for Dementia Triage (SANDBOX)
Dementia is a leading cause of death in the UK, and long waits for diagnosis can delay access to care and treatment. The SANDBOX study is a research study in NHS Memory Clinics investigating whether providing clinicians with additional test results could help them diagnose dementia earlier. Adults aged 50 …
Dementia With Lewy Bodies: Clinical Symptoms, Biomarkers and Progression
The goal of this observational study is to improve the detection of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and its prodromal phases, as well as advancing our current understanding of biological mechanisms and therapeutic options. The data is acquired at cognitive clinics in Stockholm (Sweden) and combined with national and international …
Neurofilament Light Chain And Voice Acoustic Analyses In Dementia Diagnosis
This cohort study aims to determine if a blood test can aid with diagnosing dementia in anyone presenting with cognitive complaints to a single healthcare network. The investigators will measure levels of a brain protein, Neurofilament light chain (Nfl), and assess changes in language using speech tests. Participants will have …
Retinal Imaging in Neurodegenerative Disease
This study aims to develop and evaluate biomarkers using non-invasive optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA) as well as ultra-widefield (UWF) fundus photography to assess the structure and function of the retinal and choroidal microvasculature and structure in persons with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's Disease (AD), …
The Active Mind Trial: An Adaptive Randomized Trial to Improve Function and Delay Dementia
Older adults at risk for dementia show a variety of cognitive deficits, which can be ameliorated by different cognitive training (CT) exercises. The best combination of CT exercises is unknown. The aim is to discover the most efficacious combination of CT exercises as compared to cognitive stimulation (which will serve …
