A Clinical Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of RPh201 Treatment in Individuals With Alzheimer's...
Mild to Moderate Dementia Due to Alzheimer's DiseaseWith or Without Coexisting Cerebrovascular DiseaseThis study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicentre, Phase 2 study, with an optional open-label extension, to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of RPh201 in subjects with mild to moderate AD who are eligible for enrollment in this study. Subject participation will include a Screening Phase, Treatment Phase, and an Optional Open-Label Extension. The Screening Phase will be up to 4 weeks prior to randomization. Both the subject and their study partner(s) will sign an informed consent form (ICF). At Visit 2, Subjects will be randomized 2:1 to RPh201 or placebo. The Treatment Phase will last for 6 months post-randomization, or until subject withdrawal from the study, whichever comes first. The Optional Open-Label Extension will begin once a subject has completed the Treatment Phase and the subject and their study partner(s) have signed an ICF to continue on the study. The Optional Open-Label Extension will continue for 6 months, or until subject withdrawal from the study, whichever comes first. Subjects who do not participate in the Optional Open-Label Extension will be asked to return for an optional post-study visit 6 months after the end of the Treatment Phase. Subjects may participate in an optional biomarker sub-study. Up to 15 subjects may also participate in an optional FDG-PET sub-study during their study participation. Separate informed consent will be required for both of these sub-studies.
In the Real World Study, the Efficacy and Adverse Reactions of Ticagrelor on Ischemic Cerebrovascular...
Cerebral InfarctionStroke2 moreThis is a forward-looking, open, one-arm, and real clinical trial world. The researchers plan to recruit at least 50 qualified patients. The main purpose of this study is to establish a population pharmacokinetic model of ticagrelor , explore the correlation between its blood concentration and the events of ischemia and the adverse effects of hemorrhage, and evaluate the effectiveness and safety of ticagrelor in the treatment of ischemic cerebrovascular disease.

Machines Assisting Recovery From Stroke
Cerebrovascular Disease; SequelaeLocomotor disability remains a major obstacle to community function in stroke survivors. This disability is best characterized by the reduced gait speed and enhanced risk of falls that is observed in the majority of stroke survivors. Current robotic systems have focused on repetitive stepping in constrained, less-challenging environments than overground training and have failed to produce results that can justify their use. In contrast to this approach, this study will use a combinatorial approach on a moving platform (KineAssist-Mobility Activity Center) that simulates and enhances the challenges of overground training. We focus on five critical factors that contribute to reduced speed and fall risk during mobility activities: 1) lower limb weakness; 2) slow lower limb movements; 3) reduced balance; 4) reduced ability to respond to challenges during walking; and 5) reduced aerobic capacity. The end product of this study is to develop a comprehensive and standardized system for assessing and prescribing specific training modalities that can be used by clinicians to help stroke survivors who are limited by slow walking speed and high fall risk, and can improve participation in mobility activities.
Virtual Rehabilitation and Conventional Therapeutic Exercises in the Treatment of Individuals Post...
StrokeCerebrovascular DisordersThe purpose of this study is to determine the effects of the use the Nintendo Wii® (NW) and conventional therapeutic exercises in the rehabilitation of balance and gait of the post-stroke patients and the impact on quality of life.
A Study of Donepezil Hydrochloride in Patients With Dementia Associated With Cerebrovascular Disease...
Dementia Associated With Cerebrovascular DiseaseThe primary objectives are to confirm that donepezil hydrochloride has superior efficacy compared with placebo in improving cognitive function, as measured by Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive subscale (ADAS-cog), and to demonstrate that donepezil hydrochloride has superior efficacy compared with placebo in improving global function, as measured by Clinician's Interview-Based Impression of Change-plus Caregiver Input (CIBIC-plus), in patients with dementia associated with cerebrovascular disease (VaD).

Intravenous Pantoloc In Aspirin-Induced Ulcer Bleeding
Cardiovascular DiseaseCerebrovascular DisordersThe aim of the study is to investigate whether intravenous infusion of pantoprazole (Pantoloc) is effective in preventing recurrent bleeding in patients who present with acute ulcer bleeding and continue to use aspirin
Treatment for Movement Problems in Elderly Stroke Patients
Cerebrovascular DisordersAfter a stroke, many patients are left with an impaired arm. Restricting the use of the good arm may improve the use of the bad arm. In "Constraint-Induced Movement" therapy (CI therapy), the good arm is put in a sling to force increased use of the bad arm. The bad arm is also trained each day for several weeks. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of CI therapy in patients with chronic disability after stroke and whether the rate of recovery is decreased in elderly patients.
