About this study

Official title: PRE3 PRE-CUBE. PREdiction, PREvention, PREdisposition: Applications in Neurology and Endocrinology

This project aims to introduce solutions for strengthening the management capabilities of two types of patients, in terms of care and prevention. Specifically, it is aimed at neurological patients with mild or minor neurocognitive decline (Mild Cognitive Impairment, MCI) and endocrinological patients diagnosed with obesity. The study want to enhance the predictive capacity of the care process management system through an Artificial Intelligence (AI) system. All patients diagnosed with MCI and obesity who, within 30 months, will be referred to the Neurology and Endocrinology clinics of the IRCCS Centro Neurolesi Bonino-Pulejo in Messina will be evaluated.

Patients will not be subjected to any procedure that goes beyond normal clinical practice; the clinical and neuropsychological variables that will be collected for the study are those that are commonly collected in normal clinical practice. All patients diagnosed with MCI and obesity who, within 30 months, will be referred to the Neurology and Endocrinology clinics of the IRCCS Centro Neurolesi Bonino-Pulejo in Messina will be evaluated.

All patients will undergo clinical, neuropsychological and psychological evaluation at the beginning (baseline T0), at the end (T1) and after ... months from the end of treatment (follow up T2).

What is being measured

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

  1. the creation of predictive algorithms capable of calculating the risk of onset and/or staging of neurodegenerative and metabolic pathologies

    The project has as its primary objective the creation of predictive algorithms capable of calculating the risk of onset and/or staging of neurodegenerative and metabolic pathologies, with the aim of identifying potential targets of subjects at risk of developing such diseases, in the context of patient enrollment, as per normal clinical practice, on an outpatient basis, at our IRCCS.

    Measured: 1 hour

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Evaluate the effectiveness of the therapeutic path and define the outcomes of the treatment plan for these types of patients

    Consider the macro-tasks relating to Taking Charge, Activation of the therapeutic, care and rehabilitation plan as well as the activation of care and follow-up services. With these macro-tasks, through an analysis of the data, it will be possible to carry out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the treatment path envisaged for the patient, identify the treatment process that follows the adopted PDTA (taking charge, evaluation, monitoring and follow-up up) and define the outcomes of the treatment plan for these types of patients, promoting a correct diagnostic classification and an effective therapeutic intervention aimed at managing comorbidities and improving the patients' quality of life.

    Measured: 1 hour

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Dementia and Mild Cognitive Impairment, run by IRCCS Centro Neurolesi Bonino Pulejo at 1 site in Italy.

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 6 inclusion and 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jan 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Italy. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the creation of predictive algorithms capable of calculating the risk of onset and/or staging of neurodegenerative and metabolic pathologies (time frame: 1 hour). 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 26 Jan 2024.
