Learn More About PowerMK-1167 for Alzheimer's Disease
Columbus, Georgia
Researchers want to learn if giving MK-1167 (the study medicine) along with acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (AChEI) therapy can improve symptoms of Alzheimer's disease dementia (AD dementia), such as memory and mental activity. AD dementia is the most common type of dementia. AChEI therapy is the standard treatment for AD dementia.
The goals of this study are to learn:
* If at least one dose level (amount) of MK-1167 works to improve a person's memory and thinking compared to a placebo
* About the safety of MK-1167 and if people tolerate it

Computerized Anxiety Treatment for Mild Alzheimer's Disease
Tallahassee, Florida
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of a computerized anxiety sensitivity treatment (CAST) compared to a health education control (HEC) in older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild Alzheimer's Disease and related dementias (ADRD) and their care partners. The main questions it aims to answer are:
1. Efficacy of CAST in reducing anxiety and related symptoms among those with MCI/mild ADRD
2. Efficacy of CAST in reducing care partner burden among care partners of people living with MCI/mild ADRD
3. Explore treatment mechanisms using a multi-modal assessment battery of anxiety sensitivity and anxiety
Participants will complete six in-person visits including a baseline assessment, two intervention sessions, and three follow-up assessments at 1, 3, and 6-months posttreatment. Participants will also complete three weeks of ecological momentary assessments (EMAs) for one week prior to intervention, one week between intervention sessions, and one week after intervention.
If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare CAST to HEC to see if CAST reduces anxiety and related symptoms in older adults with MCI/mild ADRD and care partner burden to a greater degree than HEC.

Palliative Care Program for Alzheimer's Disease
Atlanta, Georgia
Millions of Americans have late-stage Alzheimer's and related dementias (ADRD), causing suffering due to loss of awareness of self and family, progressive dependency, physical and neuropsychiatric symptoms, and physical, emotional and financial strain for caregivers. Investigators now propose a multi-site randomized clinical trial of the ADRD Palliative Care (ADRD-PC) program for persons with late-stage ADRD and their family caregivers, triggered during hospitalization. Investigators aim to learn if this program of dementia-specific palliative care, standardized caregiver education, and transitional care is effective to reduce burdensome hospital transfers, improve symptom treatment and control, augment supportive services, and reduce nursing home transitions for patients, and to improve caregiver outcomes of communication, shared decision-making and distress.

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 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 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."

Equol for Cognitive Impairment
Atlanta, Georgia
The ACE Trial, funded by the National Institute on Ageing/National Institutes of Health (NIH), is a multicenter clinical trial. The ACE Trial will determine if taking the dietary supplement Equol could slow the progression of stiffening of the arteries, small blood vessel disease in the brain and memory decline. Equol is a soy-based supplement that has plant estrogen-like compounds in it.
Equol is a metabolite of soy isoflavone. Our studies in Japan and other studies suggest that Equol may slow mechanisms related to memory decline. No previous studies in the United States have tested the effect of Equol on these mechanisms or memory decline. Supplementation of Equol in the ACE Trial is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Wake Forest University, Winston-Salem, North Carolina, and Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia, are recruiting participants.
The ACE Trial will ask participants to complete 7 clinic visits over a two-year period. The participants are asked to take Equol tablets daily for 24 months. Clinic procedures include Pulse Wave Velocity (to measure arterial stiffness), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the brain and tests of awareness and thinking.

Caregiver Training with MapHabit for Alzheimer's Disease
Atlanta, Georgia
As part of Phase II of the NIH SBIR grant, the study will conduct a randomized controlled clinical trial in which the MapHabit system (MHS) will offer a caregiver training product that is linked to MHS, an Alzheimer's disease or related dementias (AD/ADRD) assistive technology product that uses visual maps to improve a patient's behavior and sense of autonomy. MapHabit's combined areas of focus, i.e., offer a single integrated product to address the caregiver and the person under this caregiver's care, are unique and will create a new standard in the field to reduce caregiver burden in the setting of caring for individuals with AD/ADRD. Additionally, the study will integrate enhanced user support modules, i.e., gamifying, dashboarding, and social networking, to improve the Caregiver Training Program (CTP) experience.The study will be a randomized controlled clinical trial, in which two conditions will be investigated: 1) control condition in which the MHS alone is incorporated in the participant's daily care and 2) experimental condition in which the MHS+CTP is implemented into the daily care received by participants. The sample size will be a total of 50 patient-caregiver dyads, 25 in each condition. The study duration will be a 6-month intervention.

Exercise for Parkinson's Disease
Decatur, Georgia
Veterans with mid to later stage Parkinson's disease (PD) may not be able to work out as hard as they need to, to prevent brain cell loss. Maybe they could work out longer and more frequently to make up for this during their good times and good weeks and then rest during the bad weeks. The investigators will compare how effective working out a lot one week per month with a break of three weeks is to continuously exercising weekly with no breaks in people with mid stage PD. The investigators will look at how fast participants walk per minute, whether they become more physically active, the biochemicals in their blood, and at how stiff their blood vessels are before and after the exercise.
