This research is being done to develop a unique matching process for caregivers of persons living with dementia, such as Alzheimer's disease, Lewy body dementia, frontotemporal degeneration, or other dementia syndromes. Dementia caregivers often assume greater caregiving burden than do non-dementia caregivers, and the caregiving duration tends to be longer. Many caregivers do not have the adequate support they need. Peer-to-peer support has been shown to improve quality of life, more engagement with services, improve caregiver health, and reduce hospitalizations in the person they are caring for. This study will help determine whether caregivers of persons with dementia would find a technology-based caregiver matching program valuable for the purpose of emotional support.

Why Other Patients Applied

"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."

AH
Dementia PatientAge: 64

"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 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 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

The goal of this study is to learn if the investigational drug, BMS-984923 will impact the exposure and clearance of other medications when given together. Most drugs are broken down and cleared in the body via cytochrome P450 enzymes in the liver. The metabolism and clearance of certain drugs can be affected by other drugs when dosed together. To evaluate the impact of BMS-984923 on the clearance of other medications, we will investigate three known pathways which may be impacted by BMS-984923. In this study participants will take one dose of the three known medications, midazolam, caffeine and dextromethorphan together. These drugs are known to be cleared by different cytochrome P450 enzymes. Blood will be collected to evaluate the exposure and clearance of these medications and their primary metabolites. Study participants will then be administered BMS-984923 for 18-days. On the 18th Day of BMS-984923 dosing, participants will again be co-administering midazolam, caffeine and dextromethorphan. Blood will be collected again, and the concentration of each drug will be measured. We will learn in this study if BMS-984923 changes the exposure and metabolism of the known drugs. These results will inform how BMS-984923 can be administered to patients who take multiple medications.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Alzheimer's Disease clinical trials in Wisconsin 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 Wisconsin 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 Wisconsin 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 Wisconsin 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 Wisconsin 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 Wisconsin?

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 Wisconsin?

Most recently, we added Anti-amyloid Immunotherapies for Alzheimer's Disease, ION269 for Down Syndrome at Risk of Alzheimer's Disease and BMS-984923 for Drug Interaction to the Power online platform.
