A Pivotal Study of Sensory Stimulation in Alzheimer's Disease (Hope Study, CA-0011)
This is a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, adaptive-design pivotal study of sensory stimulation in subjects with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. Approximately 345 subjects will be randomized to 12 months of daily treatment with either Active or Sham Sensory Stimulation Systems. Efficacy will be measured using the Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study- Activities of Daily Living (ADCS-ADL) assessment and a combined statistical test (CST) of the ADCS-ADL and the Mini-Mental State E ...
Stress Management Toolkit for People Living With Dementia and Their Care Partners
The purpose of this study is to develop a prototype of a home-based, dyadic tangible toolkit comprised of simple tools to help people living with dementia (PLWD) and their care partners manage stress at home. A human-centered design approach will be used to develop and user-test a prototype of a dyadic, tangible stress-management toolkit with and for PLWD and their care partners; and to explore the feasibility of collecting several stress-related outcomes. A total of 4 focus groups (n=3-4 dyads ...
Yoga for Caregivers and Persons With Dementia
The purpose of this research is to determine the feasibility and acceptability of yoga classes for persons living with dementia (PLWD) and their care partners. A secondary aim of this study is to examine the impact of yoga on caregiver burden.
Implementation of Cognitive Stimulation Therapy
This project aims to examine the feasibility of implementing Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (CST) under real world circumstances in a more heterogenous population, with the ultimate goal of making the treatment broadly accessible. The effects of CST on the behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) as a non-pharmacologic intervention will also be studied.
A Study of JNJ-63733657 in Participants With Early Alzheimer's Disease
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of JNJ-63733657 versus placebo on clinical decline as measured by the Integrated Alzheimer's Disease Rating Scale (iADRS), a composite of cognition and function.
Pragmatic Evaluation of Events And Benefits of Lipid-lowering in Older Adults
PREVENTABLE is a multi-center, randomized, parallel group, placebo-controlled superiority study. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to atorvastatin 40 mg or placebo. This large study conducted in community-dwelling older adults without cardiovascular disease (CVD) or dementia will demonstrate the benefit of statins for reducing the primary composite of death, dementia, and persistent disability and secondary composites including mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and cardiovascular events.
TRC-PAD Program: In-Clinic Trial-Ready Cohort
The purpose of the TRC-PAD study is to develop a large, well-characterized, biomarker-confirmed, trial-ready cohort to facilitate rapid enrollment into AD prevention trials utilizing the APT Webstudy and subsequent referral to in-clinic evaluation and biomarker confirmation. Participants with known biomarker status may have direct referral to the Trial-Ready Cohort. If you are interested in being selected for the TRC-PAD study, you should first enroll in the APT Webstudy (https://www.aptwebstud ...
Physical Activity, Alzheimer's Disease and Cognition Relative to APOE Genotype
Physical activity and Alzheimer's disease (PAAD-2) is a randomized control trial that will assess the effects of exercise on middle-aged (40-65 years) cognitively normal adults who have a heightened risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD) due to family history (FH+). The investigators will also assess the extent to which this effect is moderated by apolipoprotein epsilon-4 (APOE4) carrier status, and will gather critical new experimental evidence on the use of physical activity to improve cognitive per ...
Ferritin and Iron Burden in SAH sIRB
Ruptured cerebral aneurysms lead to subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH),that has a high morbidity and mortality rate, the severity of which is predicted by the "Hunt-Hess grade" (HHG). SAH leads to iron (Fe) and hemoglobin (Hb) accumulation in the brain, which is toxic for neurons. Ferritin (iron reported in the brian) and iron overload leads to brain atrophy, specifically in the mesial temporal lobe (hippocampus, impairing patients' cognition. It is estimated that 50% of survivors have cognitive def ...
