Gantenerumab for Alzheimer's Disease
Recruiting0 awardsPhase 2 & 3
New York, New York
This trial will study if treatment with an investigational study drug can prevent or slow the rate of Alzheimer's disease (AD)-causing accumulation of amyloid beta (Aβ). Part 1 will use Aβ positron emission tomography (PET) imaging to determine if treatment with the study drug prevents or slows the rate of Aβ pathological disease accumulation. Part 2 will evaluate the effect of early Aβ plaque reduction/prevention on disease progression by assessing downstream non-Aβ biomarkers of AD.
Monoclonal Antibodies
Donanemab for Early Alzheimer's Disease
Recruiting1 awardPhase 3
Springfield, New Jersey
This trial is testing different doses of donanemab, a drug aimed at helping people with early Alzheimer's disease. Donanemab has shown rapid reduction of brain amyloid in early Alzheimer's disease. The study will look at how often and how severely participants experience a side effect involving brain swelling. Researchers also want to find out which patient characteristics might predict this side effect.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need insurance to participate in a trial?
Almost all clinical trials will cover the cost of the 'trial drug' — so no insurance is required for this. For trials where this trial drug is given alongside an already-approved medication, there may be a cost (which your insurance would normally cover).
Is there any support for travel costs?
Many of the teams running clinical trials will cover the cost of transportation to-and-from their care center.
Will I know what medication I am taking?
This depends on the specific study. If you're worried about receiving a placebo, you can actively filter out these trials using our search.
How long do clinical trials last?
Some trials will only require a single visit, while others will continue until your disease returns. It's fairly common for a trial to last somewhere between 1 and 6 months.
Do you verify all the trials on your website?
All of the trials listed on Power have been formally registered with the US Food and Drug Administration. Beyond this, some trials on Power have been formally 'verified' if the team behind the trial has completed an additional level of verification with our team.
How quickly will I hear back from a clinical trial?
Sadly, this response time can take anywhere from 6 hours to 2 weeks. We're working hard to speed up how quickly you hear back — in general, verified trials respond to patients within a few days.
