The lack of an in-vivo pathology marker for synuclein pathology has been a long standing challenge for dementia for Lewy bodies (DLB) research. This issue is critically important for phase II trials, which are often small, requiring the precise measurement of the biological effects, whether disease modifying or symptomatic. Recent advances have enabled the determination of alpha-synuclein pathology status with CSF measurements, using aggregation assays [RT-QUIC].

Dementia patients often received one clinical diagnosis, yet most of these cases present multiple underlying pathologies. Bringing the transition from clinical-based to biological-based diagnosis holds promise with the diagnostic criteria proposed by the Alzheimer's Association (AA) Revised Criteria for Diagnosis and Staging of Alzheimer's Disease and the Neuronal Synuclein Disease Integrated Staging System (NSD-ISS). This session aims to explore the practical implications of the AA revised criteria for diagnosing and designing clinical trials in Lewy body disease (LBD).

We leverage deep learning predictive models to create prognostic scores (forecasted control outcome) of trial participants and in combination with a linear statistical model to increase statistical power in randomized clinical trials (RCT). This is a straightforward extension of the traditional RCT analysis, allowing for ease of use in any clinical program.

Currently, one in three older adults pass away with a form of Alzheimer's disease or related dementias (ADRD). This figure is higher in underrepresented and underserved groups including older adults in rural Appalachian communities.

Center for Health + Technology, University of Rochester Medical Center, Rochester, NY, USA.
Background: To bolster clinical trial infrastructure, there is a need to develop novel, valid, and reliable patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures capable of tracking clinically-relevant changes in Alzheimer's disease (AD), Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and dementia over time. This research describes the development and validation of the Alzheimer's Disease-Health Index (AD-HI) as a tool to measure how patients feel and function in response to therapeutic intervention.
Method: We previously conducted semi-structured qualitative interviews and a national cross-sectional study with individuals with AD, MCI and dementia to ascertain the most prevalent and impactful symptoms identified by the participants.
