Critical Path for Alzheimer's Disease (CPAD) Consortium, Critical Path institute, Tucson, AZ, USA.
Background: To help improve the Alzheimer's disease (AD) therapeutics research and development process, the Critical Path for Alzheimer's Disease (CPAD) Consortium at the Critical Path Institute (C-Path) provides a neutral framework for the drug development industry, regulatory agencies, academia, and patient advocacy organizations to collaborate. CPAD's extensive track record of developing regulatory-grade quantitative drug development tools motivates sponsors to share patient-level data and neuroimages from clinical trials. CPAD leverages these data and uses C-Path's core competencies in data management and standardization, quantitative modeling, and regulatory science to develop tools that help de-risk decision making in AD drug development.

The aim of this study is to explore the baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes of patients with different types of DVT.
