Development of a Database to Investigate Digital and Blood-Based Biomarkers and Their Relationship to Tau and Amyloid PET Imaging in Older Participants Who Are Cognitively Normal (CN), Have Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), or Have Mild-to-Moderate AD Dementia (NCT06584357)

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Interventional Protocol ๐Ÿ“Š Observational Clinical Research Sponsor: GAP Innovations, PBC

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

Bio-Hermes-002 is a 120-day cross-sectional study that will result in a blood, CSF, retinal, digital, MRI, and PET brain imaging biomarker database that can be used to determine the primary objective. Digital biomarkers and blood-based biomarkers will be tested to determine whether a meaningful relationship exists between biomarkers alone or in combination with tau or amyloid brain pathology identified through PET images.

Who can join: To join this study, participants generally need to meet the listed inclusion criteria (9 items) and avoid the listed exclusions (28 items).

Location: JEM Research Institute โ€” Atlantis, Florida

Instant Checklist

Check every box below. If you can check all of them, you may meet the study's basic screening requirements (final eligibility is confirmed by the site team).

Usually NOT eligible if any of the following apply:

  • Exclusion Criteria: Pre-screening Exclusion Criteria Participants who meet ANY of the following criteria will not be eligible to progress to Visit 1 (Screening):
  • Participant is unable to undergo amyloid and tau PET scans due to self-reported pregnancy, sensitivity to ligands being used, poor venous access, contraindication to PET, or planned or recent exposure to ionizing radiation that in combination with the planned administration of amyloid radioligand would result in a cumulative exposure that exceeds recommended local guidelines;
  • Participants who have reported or have a known negative amyloid PET scan in the past 6 months;
  • Participants with any known contraindication to brain MRI scan;
  • Participants with history of stroke or seizures within 1 year of the Pre-Screening Visit;
  • Participants with history of cancer within the past 5 years with the exception of non-melanoma skin cancer or prostate cancer in situ;
  • Participants with known or suspected alcohol or drug abuse or dependence within 1 year of the Pre- Screening Visit;
  • Participants who report any current unstable psychiatric symptoms that could interfere with study procedures or impact study data (e.g., uncontrolled depression);
  • Participants who have received any potential disease modifying AD treatment within 6 months prior to the Pre-screening Visit; and
  • Participants with known history or self-report to be Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Positive unless controlled by antiviral medication. Core Study Exclusion Criteria Participants who meet ANY of the following criteria, in addition to the Pre-screening Exclusion Criteria, will not be eligible to enroll into the study:
  • Participants who, in the opinion of the Site Principal Investigator, have serious or unstable medical conditions that would prohibit their completion of all study procedures and data collection;
  • Participants who have serious or unstable medical conditions that would likely preclude their participation in an interventional research trial;
