Individual Closed-Loop Neuromodulation Therapy for Alzheimer's Disease
Testing a brain stimulation approach to study memory and thinking in people with early
📍 Massachusetts General Hospital · Charlestown, MA · Get directions →
The project is a placebo-controlled study that aims to use closed-loop transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) to study patients with symptoms of mild cognitive impairment which is likely due to Alzheimer's disease or another form of dementia (AD-MCI). Patients will undergo an EEG and complete some questionnaires and computer tasks during each study visit.

Investigation of Inflammation in Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD) Using [11C]-CS1P1
Testing a brain scan tracer to measure inflammation in dementia
📍 Washington University School of Medicine · St Louis, MO · Get directions →
This study involves a brain positron emission tomography (PET) scan with a new, investigational radioactive tracer called \[11C\]-CS1P1 to identify inflammation in the brain by testing with healthy older adults and with cognitively impaired older adults.

New Heart Imaging Techniques to Evaluate Possible Heart Disease
Testing new heart imaging to check for possible heart disease
📍 National Institutes of Health Clinical Center · Bethesda, MD · Get directions →
Background: \- Imaging tests, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), can provide information about heart and blood vessels. The tests let doctors can see the amount of blood vessel narrowing and vessel wall thickness.

Testing an online speech and language program to improve communication and quality of life for
📍 University of Texas · Austin, TX · Get directions →
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether a personalized, multi-component, virtual speech language treatment program can improve communication and quality of life for adults with primary progressive aphasia (PPA) and their primary communication partners. The study will enroll participants who speak English and/or Spanish.

Sotagliflozin to Slow Kidney Function Decline in Persons With Type 1 Diabetes and Diabetic Kidney Disease
Testing whether sotagliflozin can slow kidney damage in type 1 diabetes
📍 Stanford University Medical Center · Stanford, CA · +12 more US sites · Get directions →
Powerful new drugs that can prevent or delay end stage kidney disease (ESKD) - so called sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) - are now available for patients with type 2 diabetes. Whether these drugs have similar effects in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) remains unknown because of the few studies in this population, due to concerns about the increase in risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA, a serious, potentially fatal acute complication of diabetes due to the accumulation of substances called ketone bodies) observed with SGLT2i therapy in T1D.

Prevention of Progression of Prediabetes, Obesity and CV Risk
Testing ways to stop prediabetes and obesity from getting worse
📍 University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio · San Antonio, TX · Get directions →
The investigators are studying how to help people with prediabetes (Pre-DM) and obesity. The goal is to use new and affordable treatments to bring blood sugar levels back to normal and help participants to lose weight.

Maridebart Cafraglutide in Heart Failure With Preserved or Mildly Reduced Ejection Fraction and Obesity
Testing maridebart cafraglutide with standard care to reduce heart failure events in obese people
📍 University of Alabama Saint Vincent's Birmingham · Birmingham, AL · +39 more US sites · Get directions →
This trial will examine if maridebart cafraglutide as an adjunct to standard of care will lead to a reduction in heart failure (HF) events such as HF hospitalizations and urgent HF visits, cardiovascular (CV) deaths and improvement in HF symptoms in participants with HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and HF with mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF) who are obese. This is a phase 3, global, multicenter, 2-part trial with a double-blind period and an open-label extension (OLE).
