Cognitive Impairment ยท Alzheimer Blood Biomarkers ยท Alzheimer Disease (AD)
Many individuals develop dementia, and dementia has multiple causes, yet we currently have limited treatment options. A critical observation of the effectiveness of the available dementia treatments is that they tend to be more effective when started early. Previous studies have shown that multimodal lifestyle interventions can significantly delay the onset of Alzheimer's dementia in individuals with high risk for Alzheimer's or with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). These interventions may be less effective when initiated after dementia has already been diagnosed or is more advanced. This study has two primary goals. The first goal is to assess attitudes around dementia risk for participants throughout the study as they learn of their personalized risk and possible lifestyle factors that may modify that risk. The second goal is to serve as a logistical pilot for the implementation of data collection and processing and multimodal lifestyle intervention to reduce the risk factors of dementia in individuals without current cognitive impairment but who are at high risk of progression to dementia. Secondary goals of this study include better defining what factors contribute the most risk to dementia and identifying sub-types of dementia defined by different genetic and molecular risk factors.
Alzheimer Disease
The primary objective of this study is to measure the concentration and the regional brain distribution of pathologic amyloid deposition using the PET tracer \[C-11\]PiB in participants in the UAB Alzheimer's Disease Center cohort. Assessment of interactions between race and vascular risk factors, brain amyloid levels measured with \[C-11\]PiB-PET, and cognitive status will be the primary outcome of this imaging study.
Alzheimers Disease ยท Dementia ยท Alzheimers Disease, Familial
The purpose of this research study is to test the study drug, referred to as remternetug, to determine its effectiveness for the study treatment of asymptomatic (at risk) Alzheimer disease in individuals with AD-causing mutations. This study will also investigate the effects of remternetug on biomarkers (measures of the disease including brain scans, blood and spinal fluid tests), examine safety data to identify any potential benefits or risks, and examine how well participants can tolerate remternetug. Stage 1 will determine if treatment with the study drug prevents or reverses amyloid beta (Aฮฒ) accumulation compared with placebo in participants with dominantly inherited Alzheimer's disease (DIAD). Stage 2 will evaluate the effect of early anti-amyloid treatment on downstream biomarkers of AD in treated participants compared to external control groups.
Alzheimer Disease
The primary objective of this study is to measure the concentration and the regional brain distribution of pathologic tau deposition using the PET tracer AV-1451 in participants in the UAB-ADC cohort. The amount and distribution of AV-1451 in the brain will be correlated to demographic, clinical, genetic, and biospecimen data acquired through the separate ongoing UAB-ADC study. Assessment of interactions between race and vascular risk factors, brain tau levels measured with AV-1451-PET, and cognitive status will be the primary outcome of this imaging study. Individuals participating in this AV-1451-PET/MRI study will also be enrolled in an ongoing \[C-11\]PiB-PET/MRI study (IRB-300001005, IND-138128), and their amyloid, tau and cognitive statuses will be compared in terms of race and vascular risk factors.
Major Depressive Disorder ยท Mild Neurocognitive Disorder ยท HIV
A phase II, randomized, open-label, two-arm clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of pramipexole extended release (ER) versus escitalopram for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) and comorbid MDD with mild neurocognitive disorder (MND) in persons with HIV (PWH). Participants will be assessed comprehensively and briefly at intercurrent visits to monitor for toxicity, response to therapy, and to assess for dose changes. An optional sub-study to evaluate treatment impact on the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) profile will be conducted in a subset of 36 participants.
Psychosis Associated With Alzheimer's Disease
This is a Phase 3 global, multicenter, 52-week, open-label extension (OLE) rollover study for subjects completing study CN012-0026, CN012-0027 or CN012-0056. Subjects (randomized or non-randomized) who complete the 38-week CN012-0026 study, 14-week CN012-0027 study or 14-week CN012-0056 study will be eligible to enroll in CN012-0028. The primary objective of the study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of KarXT in subjects with psychosis associated with Alzheimer's Disease.
Alzheimers Disease ยท Dementia ยท Alzheimers Disease, Familial
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 (Aฮฒ) pathological disease accumulation demonstrated by Aฮฒ positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. Stage 2 will evaluate the effect of early Aฮฒ plaque reduction/prevention on disease progression by assessing downstream non-Aฮฒ 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.
Alzheimer Disease
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of donanemab plus usual care versus usual care alone in participants with early symptomatic AD. The study will employ a prospective, observational cohort design with participant management resembling real-world practice to the greatest extent possible via prospective assessments and linkage to historical and prospective electronic health records. The study will last about 273 weeks and may include up to 28 visits.
Alzheimers Disease
This study is a pre-screening process used to assess participants' potential eligibility for Roche interventional Alzheimer's disease studies.
Psychosis Associated With Alzheimer's Disease
This is a Phase 3, 38-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, outpatient study in subjects with psychosis associated with Alzheimer's Disease. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate relapse prevention in subjects with psychosis associated with Alzheimer's Disease treated with KarXT compared to placebo. The secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate the time from randomization to discontinuation for any reason or relapse and safety and tolerability in subjects with psychosis associated with Alzheimer's Disease treated with KarXT compared to placebo.

Agitation ยท Alzheimer Disease
This is a study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of BMS-986368, a FAAH/MAGL inhibitor, for the treatment of agitation in participants with Alzheimer's Disease.
Traumatic Brain Injury ยท Mild Traumatic Brain Injury ยท Aging
Older veterans with a history of mild brain trauma exhibit early cognitive challenges, especially in driving-related tasks. This is attributed to alterations in the brain's excitatory/inhibitory (E/I) balance. This pilot project investigates this phenomenon by leveraging electroencephalography (EEG) to measure parietal lobe alpha rhythms during visual attention tasks. The hypothesis is that targeted visual attention training can modulate these alpha rhythms, improving instrumental activities in daily life. However, outcomes from such training vary, possibly due to individual differences in cortical inhibitory functions. This study will assess the relationship between EEG measures of E/I balance pre- and post-visual attention training and its effects on processing speeds in aging veterans. Our findings aim to provide a foundation for customized therapies and interventions for veterans with and without a history of brain trauma.
Cognitive Impairment, Mild ยท Dementia ยท Cardiovascular Diseases
PREVENTABLE is a multi-center, randomized, parallel group, placebo-controlled superiority study. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to atorvastatin 40 mg or placebo. This large study conducted in community-dwelling older adults without cardiovascular disease (CVD) or dementia will demonstrate the benefit of statins for reducing the primary composite of death, dementia, and persistent disability and secondary composites including mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and cardiovascular events.
