Monitoring Anti-Dementia Drugs by Serum Levels
DementiaDementia With Lewy Bodies3 moreThe main objective of the MONANTI study is twofold: Firstly, to determine the amount of the anti-dementia drugs donepezil and memantine in the blood (henceforth mentioned as 'serum level) in a broadly defined clinical population of patients suffering from dementia treated with the two drugs in question. Secondly, to determine whether adjustment of treatment of anti-dementia medication according to serum levels will benefit patients in terms of cognitive performance, quality of life, frequency and severity of side effects. The reason for conduction of this study is that the relationship between serum-level of anti-dementia drugs, clinical efficacy, compliance and side effects has only been scarcely investigated. Both a previously published study and a preliminary (pilot)study conducted imply that roughly 50 % of patients on donepezil have serum-levels outside the recommended interval. Thus, MONANTI will investigate if this is indeed the case in a broadly comprised population of patients suffering from dementia treated with donepezil or memantine. In addition, MONANTI will link serum levels to co-morbidity, level of compliance, medication interactions. It is hypothesized that the efficacy of anti-dementia medication can be significantly improved by adjustment of treatment according to serum levels. Also, it is hypothesized that the burden of side effects can be reduced in patients in whom too high serum levels are detected, if dosage reduction or change of treatment drug is done. MONANTI is a randomized study, in which the assessor is blinded to avoid related biases to the extent possible. To fit the enrollment criteria a patient must be newly diagnosed with either Alzheimer's disease, dementia with Lewy-bodies or Parkinson's disease with dementia and be described treatment with either donepezil or memantine. Also, the patient must not meet a list of (exclusion) criteria, which have been set up in order to avoid blur and biases of the results. Patients can be selected as participators on account of the above, including an informed consent to participation. Next, the participators will randomized be assigned to one of two study arms. In the first of these, the control arm, the participators receive only standard treatment and follow-up at the outpatient clinic, except for measurement of serum level of the anti-dementia medication with which they are treated and a genetic test for a few key genes thought to be relevant for the study (two liver enzymes, two genes linked to Alzheimer's disease). In the other arm, the intervention arm, the participators will be closely monitored for side effects after prescription of anti-dementia drugs. All these participators will be offered a measurement of serum level in case they experience possible side effects within 2 months of treatment initiation. If, not a measurement of the serum level will be done after 6 months. All patients in the intervention arm, will be offered adjustment of their treatment with the anti-dementia drug based upon serum level. To assess the possible effects of treatment adjustment seven clinical scoring tests will be used (MMSE, ACE, clock-drawing test, NPI-Q, DAD, GCI, GDS). Assessment includes symptom severity and level of compliance according to close relatives. To measure the effect of donepezil on brain (cholinergic) function 30 participants will be recruited for electroencephalography (EEG). These participants will have an EEG done at enrollment and after 6 months. In addition to the quantitative part study a qualitative part study with relatives of enrolled patients will be conducted. All the needed approvals have been obtained according to Danish law (approval by the Danish Data Protection Agency, Scientific Ethics Committee for Region Sjaelland, The Danish Medical Agencies).
A Trial to Evaluate the Safety, Efficacy, and Tolerability of Brexpiprazole in Treating Agitation...
Agitation Associated With Alzheimer's DementiaAlzheimer DementiaThis study compares the efficacy of 2 doses of brexpiprazole with placebo in participants with agitation associated with dementia of the Alzheimer's type.
A Study of Bryostatin in Moderately Severe to Severe Alzheimer's Disease Subjects Not On Memantine...
Alzheimer DiseaseThis is a randomized double-blind Placebo-controlled, Phase 2 study comparing bryostatin to placebo for the treatment of moderately severe to severe Alzheimer's disease in subjects not receiving memantine treatment. The study is 15 weeks in duration, including a safety and efficacy evaluation 30 days after the last dose of study drug. Subjects will receive 7 doses of study drug during the study. The primary efficacy endpoint is defined as the change from baseline to Week 13 in the Severe Impairment Battery (SIB) total score.

Mild to Moderate Alzheimer's DiseaseA double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled study will be performed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treating AR1001 in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease for 26 weeks.
Repurposing Bromocriptine for Abeta Metabolism in Alzheimer's Disease
Familial Alzheimer Disease (FAD)PSEN1 MutationTo investigate the safety and efficacy of an orally administered dose of TW-012R in patients with Alzheimer's disease bearing PSEN1 (presenilin 1) mutations (PSEN1-AD), using a placebo group as a control. In addition, long-term safety will be examined in an open-label extension trial.
Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation for Patients With Mild Alzheimer's Disease (TRANSFORM-AD)...
Alzheimer DiseaseThe goal of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) in patients with mild Alzheimer's disease (AD). The study will recruit 40 individuals with mild AD with evidence of amyloid plaques in the brain through Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging. Participants will undergo baseline cognitive assessment, structural and functional MRI characterization, PiB-PET, and resting-state EEG measurement. The participants will be randomized to either a tACS group or a sham stimulation group. At the end of the intervention and 3-month follow-up, all subjects will repeat the baseline assessments.
