Active clinical trials for "Alzheimer Disease"

This is a Phase 1 study in healthy subjects to evaluate the safety and tolerability of LY2811376 single doses, how the body handles the drug, and the drug's effect on the body.

The main objective of this study is the improvement of the quality of life and state of health of elderly people with cognitive deterioration and their families through a weight loss prevention programme. The secondary objectives are the improvement of the state of nutrition, a reduction in the use of resources and a reduction in the burden on the main carer.

The main objective of this work is to assess the feasibility and efficacy of a specific Care and Assistance Plan for Alzheimer's disease (PLASA). The main outcome measure selected is incapacity in carrying out the basic activities of daily living, evaluated by the ADCS-ADL scale . The PLASA was developed by a working group appointed by the Direction Générale de la Santé as part of the government programme of action on Alzheimer's disease (October 2001, Ministère de l'Emploi et de la Solidarité).

This is a study to evaluate safety, tolerability and PK of DKF-310 IM injection in healthy male volunteers.

The purpose of this open-label, 3-part study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of [11C]MK-6884 as a positron emission tomography (PET) imaging agent for quantifying muscarinic 4 (M4) positive allosteric modulator (PAM) receptor density in brain regions of interest. The study will enroll healthy participants (Parts 1 and 2) and participants with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) (Part 3). The primary efficacy hypothesis is that the average intra-subject test-retest (T-RT) variability of tracer uptake in brain regions of interest is ≤20%.

This phase 4 study will explore, in the context of the present French clinical practice, the impact of florbetaben 18F (FBB) in patients evaluated for AD who require a biomarker for etiologic determination of the cognitive and functional impairment, but in whom: lumbar puncture was not feasible for medical conditions results of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis were considered ambiguous by treating physicians lumbar puncture (LP) was refused by the patient

This is a pragmatic cluster-randomized control trial (RCT) of an Advance Care Planning (ACP) Video Program for nursing home (NH) patients ≥ 65 years old who are cared for in 360 NH facilities (intervention arm n=119; control arm n=241) within two NH health care systems: Genesis HealthCare and PruittHealth. The intervention NH facilities will implement the ACP Video Program, while the control NH facilities will follow their usual ACP procedures. The trial will evaluate the effectiveness of the ACP Video Program by comparing hospitalizations, advance directives, and hospice use in the intervention vs. control NHs.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the radiotracer [11C] PIB in participants with probably Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and healthy age-matched controls.

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of 3 months of "Snoezelen-type" multi-sensory care sessions on NeuroPsychiatric Inventory Questionnaire (NPI-Q) scores for patients with Alzheimer's-type neurodegenerative disease.

Our previous findings support the notion that group activity program, based on cognitive stimulation, recreational-occupational activities and physical-psychomotor exercises, can lead to an improvement in behavioral aspects for people with Alzheimer's Disease (AD). The purpose of this study is to clarify the efficacy of a rehabilitation program in outpatients affected by AD in mild to moderate stages.
