Hereditary dementia

This early-stage trial tested a gene therapy called SBT101 for adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN), a rare nerve disease that causes walking difficulties. Eight adults received either the therapy or a sham procedure. The study was terminated early, so we have limited data on safety and e…

This study was designed to let people who had already taken latozinemab in an earlier study continue receiving the drug. Only 17 people took part, and the study was stopped early. The goal was to track safety and how long people stayed on treatment, not to test if the drug could …

This phase 3 study tested a drug called AL001 in 119 people who carry a mutation in the progranulin gene, putting them at high risk for or already diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia. The goal was to see if AL001 could slow the worsening of memory, behavior, and language probl…

This study tested a fast-dissolving film (BXCL501) placed under the tongue to quickly reduce severe agitation in older adults with dementia. The trial aimed to enroll many participants but was stopped early after only 5 people joined. Because it ended so soon, we cannot draw reli…

This phase 2 trial tests whether nabilone, a synthetic cannabinoid, can reduce agitation in people with frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Participants receive both nabilone and a placebo in random order to compare effects. The study includes adults with behavioral variant FTD or pri…

This study tested a drug called AVP-786 to see if it could safely reduce disinhibition—impulsive or inappropriate behavior—in people with neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's or frontotemporal dementia. The trial planned to include many participants but was terminated ear…

This study tested a personalized touchscreen device (My PATI) to help people with Alzheimer's or related dementias communicate their care preferences. The goal was to improve quality of life for both patients and their caregivers. The study was terminated early, so results are li…

This study tested a drug called CVL-871 to see if it is safe and can help reduce apathy (lack of motivation or interest) in people with dementia. The trial included 41 participants with mild to moderate dementia and clinically significant apathy. The main goal was to check for si…

This study tested whether a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation technique (tDCS) done at home, along with computer-based brain games, could improve thinking and language skills in people with primary progressive aphasia, mild cognitive impairment, or dementia. Participants use…

This study investigates how Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal dementia alter a person's sense of self and ability to understand others. Researchers will compare patients with healthy older adults using questionnaires and brain imaging. The goal is to link changes in self-awa…

This study followed 65 adult men with a rare inherited nerve disease called AMN (a form of spastic paraplegia) to understand how their symptoms change over time. Researchers collected data on walking ability and quality of life. The goal was to fill gaps in knowledge about the di…

This is an OLE study conducted to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and clinical effects of WVE-004 in adult participants with ALS, FTD, or mixed ALS/FTD phenotype with a documented mutation in the C9orf72 gene. To participate in the…
