Active clinical trials for "Alzheimer Disease"

This study is a Phase 1, first-in-human, multi-center study to establish safety of ADx-001 in healthy volunteers, and safety and proof of concept in patients with confirmed amyloid plaques in the brain (confirmed by amyloid positron emission tomography (PET)). ADx-001 is a novel, intravenously delivered, Gd- containing molecularly targeted liposomal product that is being developed for use in contrast-enabled MR imaging of amyloid plaques.

This study aims to validate the safety and impact of transdermal trigeminal electrical neuromodulation(Cefaly) on mild cognitive impairment patients with insomnia on brain functional and structural connectivity as well as sleep parameters evidenced by polysomnography and sleep surveys, with consideration for amyloid positivity and brain-derived neurotrophic factor .

The goal of this open-label extension study is to assess long-term safety and tolerability of simufilam 100 mg in subjects who have completed the RETHINK-ALZ or REFOCUS-ALZ Phase 3 clinical trials.

This study will look at the effects of lemborexant on Alzheimer's disease biomarkers found in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood in individuals who are poor sleepers

This is a Phase 3 global, multicenter, 52-week, open-label extension (OLE) rollover study for subjects completing study KAR-031. Subjects (randomized or non-randomized) who complete the 38-week KAR-031 study will be eligible to enroll in KAR-033. The primary objective of the study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of KarXT in subjects with psychosis associated with Alzheimer's Disease.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about how genetics and the response to stress predicts cognitive decline in individuals with mild cognitive impairment. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Does the hormone response to acute stress predict the degree of cognitive impairment following acute stress? Do genes associated with the risk for Alzheimer's disease influence the relationship between stress hormone response to stress and cognitive impairment following stress? Do cognitive impairment following acute stress and genes associated with the risk for Alzheimer's disease predict cognitive decline and change in biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease 2 years later? Participants will have 3 in-person study visits. The first 2 will occur at baseline and the 3rd visit will occur 2 years later. During the visits, participants will provide blood and saliva samples, undergo a 10-minute social stress procedure, complete questionnaires, and take tests of memory and other thinking skills. Someone who knows the participant (a "study partner") will be asked questions about the participant's daily functioning at the first and 3rd study visits.

Default mode network (DMN) dysfunction is a well-established feature of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and is already present in preclinical stages and in subjects at risk for AD, thus offering a potential target for early intervention. Non-invasive stimulation techniques are candidate approaches to modulate network dysfunction, however interventions specifically targeting subjects at risk for AD are lacking. This project will test a non-invasive intervention to modulate the DMN in cognitively healthy older adults carrying the main genetic risk factor for AD, the APOE e4 allele. The proposal will non-invasively stimulate the DMN in at risk subjects and will assess the neuronal-cognitive effect of this approach with multimodal neuroimaging and neurophysiological techniques.

This is a 96-week extension study of open-label simufilam 100 mg b.i.d. for mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease subjects who completed the Phase 2 study, PTI-125-04. The study will evaluate safety and long-term treatment. Safety will be assessed by AE monitoring, clinical labs, urinalysis, vital signs, ECGs, and C-SSRS.

The primary objective of this study is to measure the concentration and the regional brain distribution of pathologic tau deposition using the PET tracer AV-1451 in participants in the UAB-ADC cohort. The amount and distribution of AV-1451 in the brain will be correlated to demographic, clinical, genetic, and biospecimen data acquired through the separate ongoing UAB-ADC study. Assessment of interactions between race and vascular risk factors, brain tau levels measured with AV-1451-PET, and cognitive status will be the primary outcome of this imaging study. Individuals participating in this AV-1451-PET/MRI study will also be enrolled in an ongoing [C-11]PiB-PET/MRI study (IRB-300001005, IND-138128), and their amyloid, tau and cognitive statuses will be compared in terms of race and vascular risk factors.

TriAL21 study is an interventional, open, one arm, prospective, national and single center study. A total of 200 patients with Down syndrome, aged 35 years and over, without diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease will be enrolled into the study. Participating centre is Institut Jérôme Lejeune; outpatient's clinic dedicated to treating patients with cognitive deficiencies of genetic origin including patients with Down syndrome.
