AXS-05 for Alzheimer's Disease Agitation

Axsome Clinic, New York + 5 more

This trial is testing a new medication called AXS-05 to see if it can help reduce agitation in people with Alzheimer's disease. The goal is to find out if AXS-05 can balance brain chemicals to calm agitation and improve behavior. AXS-05, a combination of dextromethorphan and bupropion, is being investigated for its potential to treat agitation in Alzheimer's disease and has shown promise in early clinical trials.Show More

Brain Imaging Tracer for Neurodegenerative Disease

Research Clinic, New York + 1 more

This is a phase 0 study that will enable an assessment of biodistribution and estimation of absorbed dose in humans based on data collected from five healthy volunteers, which is typically the minimum number required by the FDA for first-in-human studies to assess dosimetry of a new tracer. The evaluation of the brain imaging of thirty additional subjects in the 2nd part of the study will lead to a descriptive assessment of the targeting and pharmacokinetics of MPC6827 in the brain and between normal and diseased brain.Show More

Escitalopram for Depression and Alzheimer's Prevention

Research Clinic, Orangeburg + 2 more

This trial will test if treating depression with the antidepressant escitalopram can affect biological markers related to Alzheimer's disease. It targets people with major depressive disorder to see if reducing their depression can also lower their risk of developing Alzheimer's. The study compares escitalopram to understand its effects on these markers. Escitalopram is commonly used to treat major depressive disorder.Show More

Semaglutide for Early Alzheimer's Disease

Novo Nordisk Clinic, Lake Success + 6 more

This study is done to find out whether the medicine, semaglutide, has a positive effect on early Alzheimer's disease. Participants will either get semaglutide or placebo (a "dummy" medicine which does not contain any study medicine) - which treatment participants get is decided by an equal chance. The study will last for up to 173 weeks (about 3 years and 4 months). Participants will have 17 clinic visits and 1 phone call with the study doctor. The study includes various tests and scans. At 10 of the clinic visits participants will have blood samples taken. Participants must have a study partner, who is willing to take part in the study. Women cannot take part if pregnant, breastfeeding or plan to become pregnant during the study period. A cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sub-study will be performed as a part of the study. The sub-study will be performed on a selection of sites based on their experience with CSF sampling and willingness to participate in this sub-study. The endpoints related to this sub-study are exploratory only.Show More

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do alzheimer's clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range. Further, most trials will cover the costs of an Uber to-and-from the clinic. Factors that can affect compensation include the phase of the trial, the length of the trial, the frequency of visits, and the specific condition being studied.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a medical study?

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.

How do alzheimer's clinical trials 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 typical be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and will receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across alzheimers trials in New York, 42% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or two. The average trial length in this city for alzheimers patients is 6 Months.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in getting approval for a specific condition. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where effectiveness has typically only been shown in animals and non-human experiments. Phase 1 trials are the trials where we don't have safety data in humans. As a general rule, phase 3 trials are more promising than phase 2, and phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Where in New York is research being conducted for alzheimer's?

Prominent hospitals in New York conducting Alzheimer's clinical trials include NYU Langone Health and Columbia University. These trials are primarily concentrated in the northern part of Manhattan, with approximately 35 ongoing as of 2024.

What promising new drugs are being tested?

In New York, Alzheimer's research is focusing on treatments like Monoclonal Antibodies and Gene Therapy. Notable drugs being studied include Lecanemab, Donanemab, and Semaglutide.
