About this study

Official title: Predictive Factors Associated With Impairment in Functional Autonomy in a Regional Real-life Cohort of Patients With Alzheimer's Disease or Related Disorders (ADRD)

The Alzheimer's disease or related disorders (ADRD) are among the most disabling diseases because of their main features such as cognitive impairment, loss of functional autonomy and behavioural disorders. In absence of current curative treatment, the identification of the predictive risk factors of progression of the disease, evaluated through its main symptoms, represents a major stake of public health. The Investigators aim at developing a regional database, which includes the patient medical records on a prospective basis, in collaboration with the medical and administrative staff and with the University hospital computer science departments.

The main objective is to study the predictive factors associated with change in functional autonomy level, measured every 6 to 12 months in centres across Region Auvergne Rhone-Alpes in France.

The real-life study population will consist in about 5400 patients with ADRD. The inclusion period will be of 3 years, the length of follow-up of each patient will be of 10 years max for a total study length of 13 years.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • no interventionOther

    This is study carried out in current practice. Patients are undergoing a medical examination in a memory center, with extensive and systematic evaluations for the study involving the following tests: IADL, DAD6, New AGGIR, NPI, and mini-Zarit) assessing the functions (autonomy, behavior and caregiver burden).

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

Contact Pierre Krolak-Salmon, PhD (04 72 43 20 50, pierre.krolak-salmon@chu-lyon.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Functional autonomy level (time frame: from 6 months to 12 months interval). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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?
