A Study of a Potential Disease Modifying Treatment in Individuals at Risk for or With a Type of Early Onset AD Caused by a Genetic Mutation

Join a study on early-onset Alzheimer's due to genetic mutation.

Phase 2/3

This study aims to test a new drug, remternetug, for treating people at risk of early-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD) due to genetics. Alzheimer's disease is a condition that affects the brain, causing memory loss and other thinking problems as people age. In this study, researchers are looking to see if the drug can prevent or slow the buildup of a protein called amyloid beta (Aβ) in the brain, which is believed to play a key role in AD.

The study is divided into two stages. Stage 1 checks if remternetug can stop or reduce Aβ accumulation. Stage 2 looks at the effects of early treatment on other disease indicators compared to control groups. Participants will undergo brain scans and blood tests to track changes.

  • Participants must be asymptomatic carriers of AD-related gene mutations.
  • The study involves regular visits for assessments and tests.
  • Potential benefits include slowing disease progression before symptoms appear.

Participants need to be at least 18 years old, fluent in the trial's language, and have a study partner. They must also meet specific health criteria and not have certain medical conditions.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
