New digital platform aims to catch Alzheimer's before symptoms worsen

NCT ID NCT07272811

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study is testing a digital platform that uses EEG, eye-tracking, and blood flow sensors to detect early signs of Alzheimer's in people with mild cognitive impairment. Researchers will follow 100 participants aged 55–80 for 12 months to find markers that predict progression to dementia. The goal is to create a non-invasive tool for earlier diagnosis and targeted care.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a simple, non-invasive tool for catching Alzheimer's early, when interventions might work better.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage observational study with only 100 participants. The platform may not prove accurate enough for widespread use, and results may not apply to all populations.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The study will involve around 100 participants aged 55-80, including 50 with aMCI (single or multiple domain) and 50 healthy controls. Patients will be recruited from the Neurology Unit or dementia care clinics at IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele. Healthy controls will be selected from the general population based on the study's inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Ages

55 to 80 years

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion criteria common to both experimental groups: * Signature of informed consent * Age between 55 and 80 years * Absence of functional impact on daily living activities or minimal impact on instrumental activities Specfic inclusion criteria for Healthy Controls recruitment: * Normal global cognitive efficiency (Mini Mental State Examination scores of 28 or higher) * Absence of specific cognitive deficits (memory and other cognitive domains) that are abnormal for age, sex, and education level (1.5 standard deviations below the mean for age- and education-matched controls), as assessed by objective, standardized cognitive tests. Specific inclusion criteria for aMCI recruitment: * Cognitive difficulties reported by the individual, their family member, or their primary care physician * Normal global cognitive efficiency (Mini Mental State Examination score within 0.5 standard deviations of the average for age- and education-matched control subjects). * Specific cognitive deficits related to memory or multi-domain cognitive impairments (involving memory and other cognitive domains) that are atypical for the individual's age (1.5 standard deviations below the average for age- and education-matched controls), as determined by objective, standardized cognitive tests. Exclusion Criteria: * Rejection of informed consent * Important sensory deficits (e.g., hearing loss or hypovisus) * Current or previous history of psychiatric illness * Current or previous degenerative pathology of the central nervous system (CNS) * Presence of systemic diseases in anamnesis * Presence of cerebrovascular events in anamnesis * Use of alcohol or psychotropic substances in anamnesis
