Testing cognition in clinical drug trials for Alzheimer's disease
featuring Dr. John Harrison
The number of adults living with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is expected to top 14 million by 2060. Not only is there no cure at this point, but current treatments haven’t been successful, and clinical trials to develop new therapeutic interventions keep failing. What’s holding back novel treatment option breakthroughs? Watch this webinar for insight into why assessment tools fail, strategies for selecting appropriate scales, and how better endpoint measures can help advance AD research.
Finding the best metrics for pediatric neurogenetic trials
featuring Dr. Shapiro, Dr. Eisengart, and Dr. Harmatz
Neurogenetic disorders that impact how the brain functions affect up to three percent of children, but available evaluation tools aren’t sensitive enough to detect change in their developmental skills. This poses a challenge for clinical trial sponsors who are trying to assess potential treatments. Gain more expert insight into the difficulties associated with therapy in these trial settings.
