Memory Supports for Cognitive Impairment

Waco, Texas
Alzheimer's disease and related dementias lead to marked declines in daily functioning, independence, and quality of life. One of the earliest cognitive changes in these conditions is impairment in prospective memory, or the ability to remember future intentions such as taking medications at a given time. Prior intervention studies that targeted prospective memory used mnemonic strategies or cognitive training, but these approaches resulted in modest gains in clinical populations. By contrast, a Stage I pilot trial indicated that smartphone-based memory aids (reminder apps) can be accepted and used by persons with mild cognitive impairment and mild dementia to improve both subjective and objective prospective memory performance. The investigators will now test for efficacy, durability, and generalizability of benefits across diverse samples in a Stage II randomized controlled trial. Some 200 participants with mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia will be recruited, half of whom will be from digitally-disadvantaged backgrounds (low socioeconomic status, rural, or historically underrepresented groups). Participants will complete baseline assessments and then be randomly assigned to a smartphone reminder app intervention or an active control condition that uses a paper- based memory support system. Across a 4-week intervention period, participants will complete patient-selected and experimenter-assigned prospective memory assessments and receive booster training sessions to promote self-efficacy with the intervention/control system. Durability of effects will be assessed at 3-month and 6-month follow-up sessions. As a secondary aim, study partners will be simultaneously enrolled to collect informant ratings, track how much study partners assist the participants, and determine whether improving prospective memory in patients improves quality of life in study partners (e.g., by reducing the double to-do list burden of remembering for themselves and for care recipients). As a third aim, the investigators will identify barriers and facilitators to smartphone interventions in digitally-disadvantaged individuals who have historically been underrepresented in technology and dementia research.

CBD + THC for Agitation in Dementia

Dallas, Texas
This is a multicenter randomized double-blind placebo-controlled Phase 2 study of an oral combination of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) compared to placebo over 12 weeks. This study is designed to test the hypothesis that treatment with an oral combination of THC/CBD will reduce agitation hospice care-eligible patients with agitation and dementia as measured by the Cohen Mansfield Agitation Inventory (CMAI) when compared to placebo at 2 weeks. This study will enroll approximately 120 participants of any gender at least 40 years of age who are hospice care-eligible with agitation and dementia (HAD). Participants will be randomized (50:50) to either active study drug (T2:C100) or placebo. The double-blind period of this study is 12 weeks. A 12 week optional open-label extension will be offered to participants who complete the double-blind period.

Brain Stimulation for Dementia

Dallas, Texas
This is a pilot study being done to attempt to improve episodic memory problems in persons with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or dementia. The pre-supplemental motor area (preSMA) and dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) have been shown to play a role in episodic memory and language retrieval. Prior studies have suggested that neurostimulation targeting this region can improve episodic memory and word recall. The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) to the preSMA/dACC region and its influence on word retrieval and other cognitive functions in patients with MCI or dementia. Entraining the preSMA/dACC circuit with 10 sessions of HD-tDCS will allow us to study whether neurostimulation may be an effective treatment.

Why Other Patients Applied

"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

Alzheimer's Disease PatientAge: 65

"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 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."

Speech-Language Therapy for Primary Progressive Aphasia

Austin, Texas
Difficulties with speech and language are the first and most notable symptoms of primary progressive aphasia (PPA). While there is evidence that demonstrates positive effects of speech-language treatment for individuals with PPA who only speak one language (monolinguals), there is a significant need for investigating the effects of treatment that is optimized for bilingual speakers with PPA. This stage 2 efficacy clinical trial seeks to establish the effects of culturally and linguistically tailored speech-language interventions administered to bilingual individuals with PPA. The overall aim of the intervention component of this study is to establish the relationships between the bilingual experience (e.g., how often each language is used, how "strong" each language is) and treatment response of bilinguals with PPA. Specifically, the investigators will evaluate the benefits of tailored speech-language intervention administered in both languages to bilingual individuals with PPA (60 individuals will be recruited). The investigators will conduct an assessment before treatment, after treatment and at two follow-ups (6 and 12-months post-treatment) in both languages. When possible, a structural scan of the brain (magnetic resonance image) will be collected before treatment in order to identify if brain regions implicated in bilingualism are associated with response to treatment. In addition to the intervention described herein, 30 bilingual individuals with PPA will be recruited to complete behavioral cognitive-linguistic testing and will not receive intervention. Results will provide important knowledge about the neural mechanisms of language re-learning and will address how specific characteristics of bilingualism influence cognitive reserve and linguistic resilience in PPA.

The main purpose of this intervention study is to test if the community health worker (CHW)-led care transition support intervention is feasible and acceptable to the persons living with dementia (PLWD)'s caregivers, and other healthcare providers. Main hypotheses of the study are: 1. the CHW interventionist will adhere to the intervention protocol with the score of 80% or higher on the intervention fidelity checklist throughout the intervention delivery period; 2. caregiver participants in the intervention group will rate the intervention, and the CHW interventionist to be helpful and satisfactory at the end of the intervention; 3. intervention feasibility (as measured by intervention completion rate, i.e., number of participants completing the telephone sessions with the CHW coach, and participant assessment completion rate, i.e., number of participants completing each study assessment at baseline, 6, 12 weeks) will be at equal to or higher than 80%; and 4. intervention participants - patient and caregiver - outcomes will improve at post-discharge Week 12 follow up from baseline and Week 6.
