SHARED III Trial Summary

This trial will assess how Black & White patients with aMCI adjust lifestyle/health after learning their risk of dementia & Alzheimer's. Healthcare access will be studied as a factor.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for Black and White patients recently diagnosed with Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment (aMCI) who have undergone PET scans showing amyloid and tau proteins. It's not suitable for those with severe neurological diagnoses, significant neurologic injury, motor abnormalities not due to AD, severe mental illness, or active substance use disorders.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study examines the impact of informing participants about their brain imaging results that show markers of Alzheimer's disease. It looks at how this knowledge might change their health behaviors, planning for the future, and willingness to participate in research.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves disclosure of diagnostic information rather than medication or procedures, traditional side effects are not applicable. However, learning one's biomarker status could potentially lead to emotional responses like anxiety or distress.

SHARED III Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Biomarker and Diagnostic DisclosureExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants receive information about their cognitive test results and research diagnosis. In addition, participants receive information about whether they currently have elevated or not-elevated amyloid and/or tau based on recent PET imaging. PET is a type of imaging biomarker (Aß-PET and tau PET) for clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. These actions are followed by post-disclosure dementia risk reduction counseling. For reporting purposes those participants randomized to this condition are analyzed by biomarker status (positive/+ or negative/-).
Group II: Diagnostic DisclosureActive Control1 Intervention
Personalized disclosure on cognitive test results and research diagnosis, plus post-disclosure dementia risk reduction counseling. For reporting purposes those participants randomized to this condition are analyzed by biomarker status (positive/+ or negative/-).
