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 …

A Prospective Comparative Study Of Monoclonal Antibodies For The Treatment Of Alzheimer's Disease
[18F]Florbetazine ([18F]92) for Beta Amyloid PET Imaging in Alzheimer's Disease
[18F]Florbetazine ([18F]92) is a molecularly targeted imaging agent for Aβ protein with a novel diaryl-azine scaffold. It has shown specific binding affinity to Aβ aggregates in postmortem human AD brains and excellent brain pharmacokinetic properties with little non-specific retention in white matter in animal studies and a limited number of …
Gut Microbiome and Blood Indices in Patients With AD and Their Spousal Caregivers
Spousal caregivers of Alzheimer's Dementia (AD) patients have an elevated risk of developing AD in the future. Past studies have shown the presence of serum indicators correlated with gut biome dysfunction in AD patients. We hypothesize that the same gut biome dysfunction may be present in spousal caregivers of AD …
Monitoring Drug Efficacy in Patients with Alzheimer's Disease
This study will explore the different factors associated with drug response to acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor (donepezil) and NMDA receptor antagonist (memantine) in patients with Alzheimer's Disease.
Investigation of Inflammation in Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD) Using [11C]-CS1P1
This study involves a brain positron emission tomography (PET) scan with a new, investigational radioactive tracer called [11C]-CS1P1 to identify inflammation in the brain by testing with healthy older adults and with cognitively impaired older adults.
Impact of Therapeutic Plasma Exchange on RNA Biomarker Expression Levels in Alzheimer's Patients
The study will determine if Therapeutic Plasma Exchange removes RNA biomarkers associated with Alzheimer's Disease and how quickly those biomarkers reappear after treatment.
The TearAD Study: Tear Biomarkers for Alzheimer's Disease (AD) Screening and Diagnosis
The goal of this observational longitudinal study is to investigates whether tear fluid is a non-invasive source of biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease. The main aim of the study is to evaluate diagnostic accuracy measures (sensitivity and specificity) of tear and retinal biomarkers to discriminate individuals with and without neurodegeneration. Tear …
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. …
Imaging Biomarkers in Preclinical and Symptomatic AD
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate adult children of parents with and without Alzheimer's disease which represent an ideal population for investigating the biological changes that precede the clinical onset of AD. The investigators will be imaging the brain to detect the presence of amyloid deposits (plaques …
