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
Recruiting
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 by Aβ positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. Stage 2 will evaluate the effect of early Aβ plaque reduction/prevention on disease progression by assessing d... Read More

A Study of a Potential Disease Modifying Treatment in Individuals at Risk for or With a Type of Early Onset AD Caused by a Genetic Mutation
Recruiting
The purpose of this research study is to test the study drug, referred to as remternetug, to determine its effectiveness for the study treatment of asymptomatic (at risk) Alzheimer disease in individuals with AD-causing mutations. This study will also investigate the effects of remternetug on biomarkers (measures of the disease including brain scans, blood and spinal fluid tests), examine safety data to identify any potential benefits or risks, and examine how well participants can tolerate remt...

A Double-blind Dual Study Assessing Safety and Efficacy of Buntanetap in Participants With Early AD
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if buntanetap/Posiphen works to treat early Alzheimer's disease in adults aged 55-85. It will also learn about the safety of buntanetap/Posiphen. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does buntanetap/Posiphen improve cognition as measured by ADAS-Cog13? * Does buntanetap/Posiphen improve function as measured by ADCS-iADL? * What medical issues do participants have, if any, when taking buntanetap/Posiphen? Researchers will compare buntanetap/Pos... Read More

Visualizing Brain Proteinopathies Using [F-18]Flornaptitril-PET in the Prediction of Clinical Progression of Mild Cognitive Impairment With Either Suspected Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy or Alzheimer's Disease
Recruiting
CMK-0301 is a multi-site, randomized clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of \[F-18\]Flornaptitril-PET (F-18 FNT-PET) for the prediction of clinical progression of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) with either Suspected Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE) or Alzheimer's Disease (AD). The primary objectives of the study are to: (1) To determine the accuracy of F-18 FNT-PET in prediction of clinical decline and (2) To assess the safety and tolerability of F-18 FNT. The secondary o... Read More

A Study of Mevidalen (LY3154207) in Participants With Alzheimer's Disease
Recruiting
The main purpose of this study is to look at how safe the study drug (mevidalen) is and whether it works to alleviate symptoms when given to people with mild to moderate Alzheimer Disease (AD) dementia. This is done by looking at participants: thinking and memory (cognition), everyday activities and sleep, AD symptoms, physical activity, irritability or anxiety. The study is expected to last approximately 26 weeks and may include up to 14 visits.
