Genetic Characterization of Movement Disorders and Dementias
NCT02014246
Recruiting
Background: There are two basic types of movement disorders. Some cause excessive movement, some cause slowness or lack of movement. Some of these are caused by mutations in genes. On the other hand, dementia is a condition of declining mental abilities, especially memory. Dementia can occur at any age but becomes more frequent with age. Researchers want to study the genes of families with a history of movement disorders or dementia. They hope to find a genetic cause of these disorders. This ca... Read More

A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of MK-1167 in Participants With Alzheimer's Disease Dementia (MK-1167-008)
NCT06721156
Recruiting
Researchers want to learn if giving MK-1167 (the study medicine) along with acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (AChEI) therapy can improve symptoms of Alzheimer's disease dementia (AD dementia), such as memory and mental activity. AD dementia is the most common type of dementia. AChEI therapy is the standard treatment for AD dementia. The goals of this study are to learn: * If at least one dose level (amount) of MK-1167 works to improve a person's memory and thinking compared to a placebo * About... Read More

Neurophysiological Benefits of Live Music for Early Alzheimer's Patients and Their Caregivers
NCT06940687
Recruiting
This study aims to investigate the neurophysiological effects of live music on individuals with early Alzheimer's Disease (AD), dementia, and/or mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and their caregivers. Heart rate (HR), heart rate variability (HRV), and brain activity will be measured as participant-caregiver dyads listen to preferred and improvised music performed by professional musicians. Investigators will leverage various measurement techniques including, but not limited to, electroencephalogra... Read More

Connect-Home: Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias
NCT06840587
Recruiting
This study is a parallel arm, cluster randomized trial (CRT) to test the efficacy of Connect-Home ADRD, a transitional care intervention focusing on Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) patients with Alzheimer's disease and dementias and their caregivers during transitions from SNFs to home, assisted, living, and long-term care. The primary hypothesis is that the intervention will reduce caregiver strain (Aim 1) and patient neuropsychiatric symptoms (Aim 2).

Investigating Dynamic Interactions in Distributed Cognitive Control Networks
NCT05927974
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to investigate the brain activity associated with cognitive tasks (thinking, reasoning, remembering) in order to understand how the brain works during certain tasks and to improve treatment for diseases like dementia and attention deficit disorders. Cognitive (thinking) impairment may include poor memory function, poor attention span, or psychiatric disorders (ex: ADD, depression). The investigators are interested in the brain activity related to these issues, and wa... Read More

Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative 4
NCT05617014
Recruiting
Since its launch in 2004, the overarching aim of the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) Study has been to validate biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease (AD) clinical trials. ADNI4 continues the previously funded ADNI1, ADNI-GO, ADNI2, and ADNI3 studies that have combined public/private collaborations between academia and industry to determine the relationships between the clinical, cognitive, imaging, genetic and biochemical biomarker characteristics of the entire spectrum of AD.
