Dronabinol for Agitation in Dementia Crossover Trial
Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to study the effects of dronabinol in US Veterans with agitation related to moderate to severe dementia.

COMPLETED
Agitation in Alzheimer's Disease
Description

Agitation affects 70 to 90 percent of patients with AD. Signs of agitation include verbal and physical aggressiveness, irritability, wandering, and restlessness. These behaviors often make caring for patients at home very difficult. Trazodone and haldol are two of the most commonly prescribed drugs for agitation in AD patients. Behavior management, a non drug approach, has been effective in reducing signs of agitation. Researchers have yet to compare the effectiveness of drug versus non drug therapy to treat agitation in AD patients and determine which is the best treatment. The Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study, with funding from the National Institute on Aging, is conducting an agitation treatment program at 21 sites in 16 States. This study will assess which of the above treatments is most effective.

Observe Change in Nasal Swab DRD2 Gene Expression in Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) Patients on Prolonged Dopamine Agonist Treatment
Description

The study aims to observe changes in dopaminergic genes expression in peripheral tissue upon prolonged dopamine agonist treatment on patients with Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS). Similar studies in Parkinson's disease have shown changes in alpha-synuclein expression, which might offer insights into the dopaminergic gene regulation seen in RLS. The dopamine agonist drugs to be included in this study are: Pramipexole (Mirapex), Ropinirole (Requip), Rotigotine (Neupro), Apomorphine (Apokyn), Bromocriptine (Parlodel). Specifically, the study will collect nasal swabs of participants partitioned into two groups, those who have not used a dopamine agonist or been on a dopamine agonist for less than 1 month compared to those who have been on the medication for 6 or more months. This research could provide insight into changes in dopaminergic gene expression associated with Augmentation Syndrome (AS) which occurs after long term dopamine agonist treatment in RLS patients.

Blood Changes After Exercise in Restless Legs Syndrome
Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how exercise changes molecules in the blood in people with restless legs syndrome (RLS) to better understand the cause(s) of RLS. The main questions the investigators aim to answer are: How does long-term exercise change proteins in the blood? How does a single exercise session change proteins in the blood? The investigators will compare long-term exercise to no exercise to see if the changes in proteins are specific to exercise. Participants will complete an exercise test and provide blood samples before and after the exercise test. Participants will be randomized (like the flip of a coin) in to either the exercise or no-exercise group for 12 weeks and then complete the exercise test and blood samples again at the end.
