Locomotion Adaptation Deficits in Older Adults With Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimers Disease

In people with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's Disease (AD), reduced capacity for locomotor adaptation is a fundamental but poorly understood mechanism that can be a sensitive biomarker of cognitive-motor impairments. It is also an important therapeutic target for exercise-based interventions to improve walking function. The overall goal of this study is to understand the effects of MCI and AD on locomotor adaptation and walking function.

A Study of a Potential Disease Modifying Treatment in Individuals at Risk for or With a Type of Early Onset AD Caused by a Genetic Mutation

The purpose of this research study is to test the study drug, referred to as remternetug, to determine its effectiveness for the study treatment of asymptomatic (at risk) Alzheimer disease in individuals with AD-causing mutations. This study will also investigate the effects of remternetug on biomarkers (measures of the disease including brain scans, blood and spinal fluid tests), examine safety data to identify any potential benefits or risks, and examine how well participants can tolerate remternetug. Stage 1 will determine if treatment with the study drug prevents or reverses amyloid beta (Aβ) accumulation compared with placebo in participants with dominantly inherited Alzheimer's disease (DIAD). Stage 2 will evaluate the effect of early anti-amyloid treatment on downstream biomarkers of AD in treated participants compared to external control groups.

A Study of Potential Disease Modifying Treatments in Individuals at Risk for or With a Type of Early Onset AD Caused by a Genetic Mutation

The purpose is to evaluate the biomarker effect, safety, and tolerability of investigational study drugs in participants who are known to have an Alzheimer's disease (AD)-causing mutation. Stage 1 will determine if treatment with the study drug prevents or slows the rate of amyloid beta (Aβ) pathological disease accumulation demonstrated by Aβ positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. Stage 2 will evaluate the effect of early Aβ plaque reduction/prevention on disease progression by assessing downstream non-Aβ biomarkers of AD (e.g., CSF total tau, p-tau, NfL) compared to an external control group from the DIAN-OBS natural history study and the DIAN-TU-001 placebo-treated participants.

Assessment of Foralumab Safety and Modulation of Microglial Activation in Alzheimer's Disease

This phase 2a study will research the safety and tolerability of Foralumab, a human anti-CD3 antibody. An antibody is a molecule secreted by the immune system. These molecules are created to identify a specific pathogen. Previous data on experimental mice has suggested that Foralumab increases the immune system activity in the brain to reduce the inflammation of microglia, the brain's main immune cells. This combination of increased immune reactivity and less microglia inflammation may improve the immune response throughout the brain. Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia are characteristically known for the build-up of certain proteins in the brain. This trial will evaluate whether nasal Foralumab can improve cognition in participants with mild cognitive impairment due to early Alzheimer's or dementia. The trial will ask participants to administer Foralumab nasally three times a week for eight weeks. The administration will occur intermittently, with breaks between each dosing cycle. Participants will also receive brain scans (Amyloid PET and MRI), undergo cognitive testing, blood draws, and physical, neurological, and nasal exams. Volunteers are expected to remain in the trial for six months.

Secondary Objectives: * To assess the effects of HT-4253 on tau related blood biomarker progression over the study period. * To assess the effects of HT-4253 on amyloid related blood biomarker progression over the study period. * To assess the safety and tolerability of HT-4253 in the UAE population.

University of Central Florida Music Study

The purpose of this study is to scientifically validate the impact of music therapy on Alzheimer's disease (AD) by analyzing molecular biomarkers in salivary exosomes. Exosomes are extracellular vesicles that carry molecular signals from brain cells, providing a non-invasive method to assess physiological changes.

Deep Cervical Lymphatic Venous Anastomosis in the Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease (CLEAN-AD)

This multicenter, prospective, open-label, blinded-endpoint, randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of deep cervical lymphatic venous anastomosis (DC-LVA) plus usual care versus usual care in reduing the score of clinical dementia rating-sum of boxes (CDR-SB) at 12 months in patients with moderate-to-severe Alzheimer's Disease (AD).

EFFECT OF PERIODONTAL TREATMENT ON ALZHEIMER DISEASE-ASSOCIATED OUTCOMES

Periodontitis is the most prevalent chronic infectious inflammatory disease in adults, leading to the destruction of tooth-supporting tissues. Beyond its local impact, periodontitis contributes to systemic inflammation through the release of periodontal pathogens and their byproducts into the bloodstream. Given that chronic intracerebral inflammation is a known driver of Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression, a biological link between the two conditions has been hypothesized. This study aims to evaluate whether periodontal treatment can influence AD progression by reducing systemic inflammation. We have designed a randomized controlled clinical trial including 70 patients diagnosed with both AD and stage 3 or 4 periodontitis, randomly allocated to receive either immediate (test group) or delayed (control group) periodontal therapy. All participants will undergo comprehensive periodontal treatment and be followed over a 24-month period. Cognitive assessments, periodontal evaluations, blood and saliva biomarker analyses, and neuroimaging will be conducted at multiple time points to assess the potential impact of periodontal therapy on AD progression. This trial represents the first clinical investigation into the effect of periodontal treatment on the course of Alzheimer's disease.

The Purpose of This Study is to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of X/T+X-EC in Participants With Alzheimer's Disease Who Are Currently Treated With Lecanemab.

The goal of the trial is to see if the Safety and Tolerability of X/T+X/T-EC combined with currently treated Lecanemab participants with Alzheimer's Disease compared with placebo. This is a 32 week study (4 weeks of screening,24 weeks of treatment and 4 weeks of safety follow up)

A Study of Donanemab, RG6289, or the Combination of Donanemab and RG6289 in Presenilin 1 (PSEN1) E280A Mutation Carriers for the Treatment of Autosomal-Dominant Alzheimer's Disease

The study will be conducted in 2 blinded parts (Part 1 and Part 2). In Part 1, study participants who are mutation carriers will receive active donanemab and non-mutation carriers will receive placebo-donanemab for up to 18 months (76 weeks), with a minimum treatment period of 9 months. Amyloid PET scans will be conducted at screening, 9, and 18 months in Part 1. Participants who are at or below 11 CL at screening or reach complete amyloid plaque clearance as measured by florbetapir F18 PET (defined as ≤11 CL) at 9 months will initiate Part 2. Participants who are ≤11 CL at screening may delay their entry into Part 2 for up to 6 months at the discretion of the Investigator. All remaining participants will start Part 2 after completing 18 months (76 weeks) in Part 1 independent of amyloid results. Non-carriers will receive placebo in both Parts 1 and 2. In Part 2, study participants who are mutation carriers will be randomized 1:1:1:1 in a full factorial design to receive either RG6289 + placebo-donanemab (RG6289 alone group), donanemab + placebo-RG6289 (donanemab alone group), the combination of RG6289 and donanemab (combination group), or placebo-RG6289 and placebo-donanemab (placebo group). All non-carriers will be assigned to the placebo group. CDR-GS at the end of Part 1 and the amyloid level using the last completed amyloid PET scan in Part 1 will be used for stratification. All study participants will participate in a double-dummy design for the duration of Part 2 receiving both an intravenous (IV) infusion at the required interval for the donanemab or matching placebo as well as a daily oral treatment of RG6289 or matching placebo. An exploratory outcome of Part 1 is a comparison of the amyloid clearance between this ADAD cohort and historical controls using propensity score matching. The primary outcome in Part 2 is change from the start of Part 2 through the end of Part 2 in brain amyloid load in PSEN1 E280A mutation carriers as measured by amyloid PET imaging. Other endpoints will include fluid and imaging biomarkers and measures of cognition and functioning. The maximum study duration for any individual participant will be 3 years, not including the screening or follow-up periods
