Phase II Clinical Trial of Interleukin-2 in AD

Alzheimer Disease

Neuroinflammation is a significant component of Alzheimer disease (AD). Our group recently demonstrated that regulatory T cells (Tregs) have a compromised phenotype and reduced suppressive function in AD patients, skewing the immune system toward a proinflammatory status and potentially contributing to disease progression. Low dose interleukin-2 (IL-2) is now viewed as a promising immunoregulatory drug with the capacity to selectively expand and restore functional Tregs. This study is a phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess low dose IL-2 therapy in AD patients. Up to 40 Alzheimer's disease patients in the mild- to moderate clinical dementia stages (MMSE scores: 12-26) will be randomized to five-day-courses of subcutaneous IL-2 or placebo for a total of 6 months. We will evaluate the safety and tolerability of IL-2 treatment and the possible effects of IL-2 treatment on peripheral and central inflammation. The expected time participants will be in the study is 30 weeks.

Chronic Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease by Gamma Light and Sound Therapy

Alzheimer DiseaseAlzheimer Disease6 more

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by significant memory loss, toxic protein deposits amyloid and tau) in the brain, and changes in the gamma frequency band on EEG. The investigator's lab found that boosting gamma waves in AD mouse models using light and sound stimulation at 40Hz not only reduced amyloid and tau in the brain, but also improved memory. The investigators developed a light and sound device for humans that stimulates the brain at 40Hz that can be used safely at home. For the present study, 50 participants with mild Alzheimer's disease will be enrolled and will use this light and sound device at-home daily for 6-months. Investigators will measure changes in brain waves with EEG, blood biomarkers, the microbiome via fecal samples, functional and structural MRI scans, memory and cognitive testing, and questionnaires at 3 in-person visits throughout the study. After the 6-month time point, participants will have the option of continuing in the study for one additional year and completing an 18-month study visit. This study will provide critical insight into extended therapy involving non-invasive 40Hz sensory stimulation as a possible therapeutic strategy for mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease.

Effectiveness of a High-intensity Interval Exercise Program in People With Alzheimer's

Alzheimer Disease

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a the most common type of dementia. It is a progressive disease that affects different areas of human behavior at the cognitive, social, physical and metabolic levels. The benefits of a High-Intensity Interval Exercise Program (HIIT) has been proven not only in healthy older adults, but also in different pathologies, such as cerebrovascular and cardiometabolic diseases. However, there are no studies to date that examine the impact of HIIT in people with AD. The aim of this study was to ascertain the effectiveness of a HIIT program versus a cognitive and motor dual task balance program on parameters related to functional capacity and cognitive function in people with AD.

Efficacy and Safety of Wei Li Bai Capsules in the Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease

Alzheimer Disease

In clinical trials of preclinical pharmacodynamic studies, Wei Li Bai capsules has been proved to significantly improve the learning and memory ability of Alzheimer's disease model. In this study, the researchers will use a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel method to recruit Alzheimer's disease patients to confirm the efficacy and safety of Wei Li Bai capsules. Confirmation of drug efficacy will be observed through changes in Alzheimer's disease patients' general cognitive function scores, scores of different cognitive domains, daily living activities, and symptom severities.

Alzheimer's Disease

Phase 1A SAD: Five or more cohorts of 8 healthy volunteers (HVs) will receive a single IV bolus injection of study drug or placebo. The first 4 cohorts will be male only. The last cohort will be repeated with the max safe dose of the previous cohorts in healthy elderly subjects (male and female of non childbearing potential, > 50years) Phase 1B MAD: Two or more cohorts of 8 male and female HVs will receive multiple (4) IV bolus injections of study drug or placebo every 72 hours.
