BAN2401-G000-301 (Study 301) is an 18-month treatment (Core Study), multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study in subjects with EAD (mild cognitive impairment [MCI] due to AD with intermediate likelihood/Prodromal AD or mild AD dementia) with confirmed amyloid pathology indicated by either positive amyloid load confirmed by amyloid PET assessment or CSF …
The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship between chronic sleep disturbance and chemicals in spinal fluid that are related to dementia and a molecule called orexin that helps regulate wakefulness and appetite in the brain. Individuals with sleep problems and good sleepers will be asked to participate.

The longstanding view has been that insomnia, and other forms of sleep disturbance, emerge as a consequence of dementia and are the result of progressive neuronal damage. However, there is growing evidence that the direction of causation may go both ways, with sleep disturbance potentially increasing vulnerability to dementia. Longitudinal …
This study is designed to determine the changes in the brain that occur during conditions of verbal stimulation in patients who have Parkinson’s Disease and Parkinson’s Disease with Dementia or Dementia with Lewy Bodies.
New treatments that target the protein tau are beginning to enter human clinical trials. While tau-related therapies hold great promise for AD, clinical trials focusing on pure tauopathies are appealing because these diseases do not exhibit concurrent amyloid pathology. Pure 4 microtubule binding repeat (4R) tauopathies (4RT) include corticobasal degeneration …
