Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

More than 5 million people live with Alzheimer's dementia (AD) in North America. No effective treatment exists yet probably because by the time AD has developed it is too late to intervene. Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is a clinical state that typically precedes AD. In MCI, the prefrontal cortex supports compensatory mechanisms that depend on robust synaptic plasticity and that delay progression to AD. Using a neurostimulation approach that enhances prefrontal cortical plasticity in vivo, this project aims to enhance prefrontal cortical plasticity and function in patients with MCI. If successful, this project would discover a treatment modality that enhances compensation in MCI and ultimately, prevents progression to AD.

Investigators

The overall officials registered on this study. Names that resolve to a findmyKOL profile link to it; the rest are shown as registered.

A profile link is shown only when the registered name resolves to a person record with a confident, namesake-checked match; ambiguous names stay unlinked.

Sites

1 registered facility, with the per-site recruitment status where the registry publishes one. ClinicalTrials.gov does not publish per-site enrollment counts.

Canada
  • Centre for Addiction and Mental Health

    Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Site investigator names are published by ClinicalTrials.gov only while a study recruits, so completed studies list sites without them.

Drugs studied

No drug or biological interventions are in our data for this study — it may test a procedure, device or behavioral intervention, or the intervention list isn't in our current snapshot. See the registry record ↗. Why? →
