An Exploratory Study of Deep Cervical Lymphovenous Bypass (LVB) in Alzheimer's Disease
The main pathological mechanism of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is the abnormal deposition of amyloid-beta (Aβ) and tau proteins in the brain. Recent studies indicate that these two proteins are primarily cleared through the glymphatic system-meningeal lymphatic vessels-deep cervical lymphatic vessels pathway. Lymphatic circulation disorders in elderly patients can directly lead …
A Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of KarXT + KarX-EC for the Treatment of Agitation Associated With Alzheimer's Disease (ADAGIO-1)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of KarXT + KarX-EC in adult participants with agitation related to Alzheimer's Disease.
Mitochondrial Function and Metabolomic Profile in Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias
This project aims to study on one hand the early mitochondrial alterations, common or specific, occurring in peripheral cells of patients with Alzheimer's disease or related dementia and, on the other hand, identify the metabolomic biomarkers that may be at the origin of mitochondrial disturbances associated with the disease. This …
Deep Brain Stimulation of the Pedunculopontine Nucleus for Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a brain disorder that gradually impacts cognitive functions such as memory, thinking, and daily functioning. Gamma oscillations are a type of brain activity thought to play a role in memory and cognition (thinking abilities). In AD, these oscillations are impaired - meaning they are smaller and …
Novel Personalized Non Invasive Combined Magnetic and Electrical Stimulation of the DMN in Mild AD Patients
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is increasingly recognized as a disorder marked by early synaptic dysfunction and disrupted brain network connectivity, beyond the traditional focus on amyloid pathology. Synaptic plasticity (crucial for learning and memory) is compromised in AD and represents a promising therapeutic target. In particular, alterations in the Default Mode …
Effects of Combined 40 Hz Audio-visual Stimulation and Cognitive Games on Alzheimer's Disease
In addition to ongoing drug treatments for Alzheimer Disease (AD), protective approaches that can halt the progression of the disease are of particular importance. This project aims to develop a digital application that can monitor cognitive impairment, using EEG findings proven effective at the clinical level in Alzheimer and various …
Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hMSC) in Behavioral Problems Due to Alzheimer's Disease.
The purpose of this research study is to test if adding one infusion of mesenchymal stem cells to the current treatment with antipsychotic medication may help control behavioral problems in people with a diagnosis of moderate to severe Alzheimer's disease.
Longitudinal Study Examining At-Home tDCS
Participants with dementia have reported improvements after receiving tDCS in a study at our lab. Although we make an effort to enroll such participants in further tDCS research studies, some participants are ineligible for further studies or simply unwilling to continue being a research participant. These same individuals, however, are …
Synbiotic Formula (SCV09) in Alzheimer's Disease Patients
In recent years, emerging studies have revealed the role of gut microbiota in human health and diseases, including AD and other neurodegenerative conditions5. Although the underlying mechanism is still largely unknown, successful therapies targeting the gut-brain axis may serve as indirect evidence of the possible linkage. This pilot, single-arm study …
Nicotinic Acid for the Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease
Increased dietary intake of niacin is correlated with reduced risk of Alzheimer's Disease and age-associated cognitive decline. The goal of this study is to collect data on the penetration of commercially available, FDA approved, extended-release niacin into the spinal fluid. One dose of 500 mg nicotinic acid will be used …
