NCT ID NCT07399418
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
The TRIAD study is testing whether combining biological markers, psychological tests, and social factors can help diagnose Alzheimer's disease earlier and more accurately. Researchers will follow 80 patients with cognitive decline and their caregivers, collecting data through memory tests, blood samples, brain scans, and questionnaires. The goal is to create a more complete picture of the disease to improve early detection and care.
