Age:45 - 93

100 Participants Needed

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.

Globally, populations are aging thereby increasing healthcare burden, overall cognitive impairment, and dementia including Alzheimers diseases (AD). The lack of effective treatments makes it essential to develop new strategies for healthy cognitive aging, including interventions to slow or prevent cognitive decline. A traditional Mediterranean diet, rich in polyphenols (PPs), may prevent or delay the onset of cognitive dysfunction in older adults, preserving healthy brain structure and function, and lowering the risk of AD. These effects, mediated in part by gut microbiome-derived PP metabolites, highlight the role alterations in the brain-gut microbiome system play in neurodegeneration. Moreover, high levels of circulating phenyl-y-valerolactones, neuroprotective compounds, exclusively produced by gut microbiota from flavan-3-ol-rich foods (e.g., cocoa, tea, berries) are associated with delaying the onset of cognitive dysfunction in older adults. Intake of such PPs can also change gut microbial composition and function, altering the physiology of the hosts secondary bile acid (BA) pool, affecting regulatory and signaling functions in the brain as well as cognitive decline and AD. The investigators hypothesize that, in older adults with enhanced AD risk, dietary intake of PPs maintains healthier brain features and cognitive function, and that this beneficial effect is mediated by gut microbiota metabolites of PPs and BAs. In this multi-PI application by leaders in the field of brain-gut microbiome interactions, the investigators will conduct a year-long, multi-center, randomized double-blind placebo-controlled study in 300 older adults in the United States (validation sample of 100 from Northern Ireland) who are at enhanced risk of developing AD. Ultimately, the investigators will establish the protective effects of regular dietary PP intake on cognitive function and on brain-gut microbiome interactions, ideally allowing the development of effective dietary regimes to prevent of delay the onset of AD in at-risk elderly, thereby reducing cognitive decline and healthcare costs. Participants will be asked to provide information about their diet, mood, and behaviors via food diaries, physical body measures (e.g. height, weight, etc.), and online questionnaires collected before each in-clinic appointment, as well as monthly online questionnaires. MR imaging will be collected on participants to assess neurocognitive changes as a result of the supplement. Participants will be asked to provide both stool and blood samples. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the Juice Plus+ intervention group or the placebo treatment group and then asked to take their respective supplement 4 pills twice a day. All participants will be asked to come in for 4 in-clinic appointments, including 3 brain MRI scans and 3 cognitive testing appointments, collect 3 stool samples with corresponding diet diaries, and provide 3 blood samples over the course of 12 months. Participants will also meet with a nutritionist 3 times over the 12 months to discuss diet to ensure study eligibility and any questions about the supplement.

Why Other Patients Applied

"I watched my mother suffer through years of Alzheimer's Disease and I want to help advance the science for treating AD. I don't want anyone else to have go through what our family went through."

OF
Alzheimer's Disease PatientAge: 65

"I have been on standard Alzheimer's medication for a few years but know this treatment only works to delay my cognitive deterioration, not improve it. I've been doing research, which brought me here, to consider some of the latest research drugs. While I know that there's no guarantee that a clinical trial improves my condition, I'd like to give one a try and help further the research for all."

VL
Alzheimer's PatientAge: 71

"I have a very strong family history of Alzheimer’s, with my maternal grandmother, mother, uncle, and sister having the disease. My APOE status is 2/4. My memory is going, although 6 months ago I tested decently on some cognitive tests. I'd like to help myself by getting ahead of my condition and help others in a similar situation by participating in medical research."

EK
Mild Cognitive Impairment PatientAge: 72

"I watched my mother die from Parkinson’s. At the time of her death, she weighed 85 pounds and could not move any muscles voluntarily except her eyelids. I would like to participate in a trial to help find a better treatment for PD than what is currently available. It is a devastating illness. It breaks my heart that other families will have to go through this."

WU
Healthy Volunteer PatientAge: 76

"I'm so used to losing things, forgetting things, making up to acronyms to remember things only to remember the acromym but not what the letters stand for... I enter a new room to look for an item, only to forget what I was looking for. I've discussed the existing treatments with my neurologist and she's on board with my joining a clinical trial."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Alzheimer's Disease clinical trials in Long Beach, CA pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Alzheimer's Disease clinical trials in Long Beach, CA work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Alzheimer's Disease trials in Long Beach, CA 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length in Long Beach, CA for Alzheimer's Disease is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility in Long Beach, CA several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Alzheimer's Disease medical study in Long Beach, CA?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Alzheimer's Disease clinical trials in Long Beach, CA?

Most recently, we added KarXT + KarX-EC for Alzheimer's Disease, KarXT + KarX-EC for Alzheimer's Disease and KarXT + KarX-EC for Alzheimer's Disease to the Power online platform.
