For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • * Meets core clinical criteria for non-AD dementia.
  • * Two or more first degree relatives with a history of EOAD suggestive of autosomal dominant transmission, unless known pathogenic mutations in APP, PSEN1, PSEN2 have been excluded.
  • * Known mutation in an ADAD gene (APP, PSEN1, PSEN2) or other autosomal dominant genes associated with other neurodegenerative disorders.
  • * MRI scans with evidence of infection or focal lesions, cortical strokes, multiple lacunes (single lacune is allowable unless it meets criteria for strategic lacune affecting cognition)
  • * Any significant systemic illness or unstable medical condition, which could lead to difficulty complying with the protocol (at the discretion of the Site PI)
  • * Medical history of a brain disorder other than the disorder causing dementia except for headache.
  • * Deemed ineligible by the Site PI for any other reason.
