About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the concurrent validity between the Brain Performance Test (BPT) subtests and corresponding conventional in-person neuropsychological assessments (NP).

Read the detailed description

This will be a multi-site, randomized, counterbalanced, two-period, two-sequence, validation study of the online, unsupervised Brain Performance Test (BPT). Over the course of 14 days, participants will complete two in-clinic visits during which they will complete both the BPT and in-person neuropsychological assessments (NP).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Correlation coefficients (Pearson's r) of scaled scores of BPT subtests compared to scaled scores of their NP correlates at Time 1

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Interclass correlations (ICC) of scaled scores of BPT subtests compared to scaled scores of their NP correlates at Time 1

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Correlation coefficients (Pearson's r and ICC) of raw scores of BPT subtests compared to raw scores of their NP correlates at Time 1

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Correlation coefficients (Pearson's r and ICC) of BPT composite indices and NP composite indices at Time 1

    Measured: 1 day

  4. Correlation coefficients (Pearson's r and ICC) of raw and scaled scores of BPT subtests at Time 1 and Time 2 as measures of test-retest reliability

    Measured: 2 weeks

  5. Correlation coefficients (Pearson's r and ICC) of composite indices of BPT and NP at Time 1 and Time 2 as measures of reliability

    Measured: 2 weeks

  6. Correlation coefficients (Pearson's r and ICC) of BPT Grand Index and NP Overall Index at Time 1 and Time 2 as measures of reliability

    Measured: 2 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing BPT and NP in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Lumos Labs, Inc. at 3 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Correlation coefficients (Pearson's r) of scaled scores of BPT subtests compared to scaled scores of their NP correlates at Time 1 (time frame: 1 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 May 2017.
