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 …
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 …
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 …
Testing the Effects of a Text Message Caregiver Support Intervention for Latinos
The goal of this randomized clinical trial it to test the efficacy of CuidaTEXT, the first Alzheimer's disease and Related Dementias (ADRD) caregiver support intervention to capitalize on text messaging, among Latinos. Researchers will compare those who receive the CuidaTEXT intervention to those who do not receive the intervention to …
A Study of AMDX-2011P in Participants With Alzheimer's Disease
The purpose of this study is to assess safety, tolerability, plasma pharmacokinetics and biologic activity of a single intravenous dose of AMDX-2011P in participants with Alzheimer's Disease (AD).
Alzheimer's Disease Treated With Vagus Nerve Stimulation
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) for treating Alzheimer's disease (AD) in patients aged 50-80 years with mild cognitive impairment to moderate Alzheimer's disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is the change from baseline in …
Transcranial Pulse Stimulation. a Potential Treatment for Early Dementia
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is characterized by the absence of treatments to slow, stop, or reverse its course, with patients finally losing cognitive functions, skills and independence. It is a chronic degenerative disease with high social and medical burden worldwide: AD ranked third among neurological disorders in terms of disability-adjusted life …
Fasudil Trial for Treatment of Early Alzheimer's Disease (FEAD)
The goal of this placebo-controlled double-blind Phase 2 clinical trial is to test in people with early Alzheimer's Disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does treatment with fasudil, a ROCK-inhibitor, lead to significant improvement in working memory (based on computer-based working memory composite scores) compared to placebo …
The Ketogenic Diet in the Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease
This research is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-parallel controlled, and multi-center clinical study in China, aiming to evaluate the tolerability, efficacy, and safety of JT821 (Ketogenic Diet) in the treatment of mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. The ketogenic diet (KD) is a low-carbohydrate, adequate protein and high-fat diet. KD was shown …
A Trial Evaluating the Effect of NIO752 on Tau Synthesis Measured by a Process Known as SILK
This study will assess if drug (NIO752) reduces production of a protein, tau, by the brain. Normally tau maintains the internal skeleton of nerve cells. In Alzheimer's disease (AD) it builds up in the brain, causing damage. Abnormal tau proteins cling to each other forming 'tangles' inside nerve cells, which …
