LEWY BODY DISEASE

This study is testing whether stem cells taken from a person's own bone marrow and then given back through the veins and nose can improve brain and nerve function. It includes 500 people with various conditions like stroke, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and nerve damage. The goal is …

This phase 2 trial tests whether donanemab, an antibody given by IV, can slow worsening of thinking and daily function in people with early cognitive decline and Lewy body dementia. The study enrolls 350 participants who also have signs of two brain proteins (amyloid and alpha-sy…

This study is testing a non-invasive eye camera that takes pictures of the retina using different colors of light. Researchers want to see if these images can help detect signs of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and other neurodegenerative diseases. About 930 adults over age 30 with or…

This study is testing whether new blood tests can accurately diagnose the cause of memory loss or dementia, potentially replacing the need for a spinal tap. Researchers will compare blood test results with standard spinal fluid tests in 1,200 people at a memory clinic. If success…

This study aims to make it easier for family doctors to detect early signs of Alzheimer's and other dementias. Researchers will test 1,200 adults with memory or thinking problems using blood tests and brain scans. The goal is to see if these tools can accurately identify who has …

This phase 3 study is testing an improved PET/CT imaging method using a radioactive tracer called 18F-DOPA. Researchers want to see if it can better detect small lesions and reduce image artifacts in patients with conditions like congenital hyperinsulinism, neuroblastoma, neuroen…

This study looks at language difficulties in people with Lewy body disease (like Parkinson's or dementia with Lewy bodies) who also have mild cognitive impairment. Researchers will first compare sentence understanding between patients and healthy older adults. Then they will test…

This small pilot study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS can reduce psychotic symptoms like hallucinations and agitation in people with Lewy body dementia. Thirty participants will receive either real or sham stimulation over two weeks, and rese…

This study looks at whether new, quick tests that measure how fast people can move can help doctors diagnose brain diseases like Alzheimer's and predict recovery after a stroke. Researchers will test 129 adults aged 40-85 with stroke or memory problems. The goal is to see if thes…

This study follows 650 people with early Parkinson's disease or a sleep condition called idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder (iRBD). Researchers use brain scans, heart tests, and fluid samples to track changes over time. The goal is to better understand how these conditions de…

This study follows nearly 3,000 people, including healthy adults and those with memory or movement problems, to learn how brain diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's develop. Researchers use advanced brain scans and tests to track changes over time. The goal is to improve ear…

This study looks at how the brain, memory, thinking, and movement change over time in people with Lewy body disease, Alzheimer disease, and healthy volunteers. Researchers will use brain scans and brain-wave tests to learn more about these disorders. The goal is to better underst…

This study looks at how flexible brain activity is in people with Lewy body disease, a condition that causes thinking and behavior problems and is often hard to diagnose. Researchers will analyze past EEG recordings from 40 adults to see if certain brain patterns are linked to th…

This study is testing whether special eye scans can detect changes linked to memory disorders like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Researchers will compare eye images from 450 people with and without memory complaints. The goal is to see if these non-invasive scans can help diagnose…
