Dementia With Lewy Bodies (DLB) can make you feel like your wires are crossed

The trial at Re:Cognition Health hopes to test an investigational medication to see if it might improve cognitive function, including attention, memory, and language in patients who have dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB).

What is Lewy Body Dementia?

Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is a type of dementia that shares symptoms with both Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.

Why take part in a Clinical Trial for Lewy Body Disease?

  • Volunteers participating in clinical studies at Re:Cognition Health Centres receive world-class health care including comprehensive health screens, MRI scans and PET scans and regular monitoring by the highly-skilled team of cognitive experts, at no cost.
  • Taking part in a clinical trial for Lewy Body Disease also provides the opportunity to be part of much-needed research to find medications, and ultimately a cure for Lewy Body, for current and future generations.
  • Clinical trial participants also receive a contribution to travel costs to appointments and refreshments are provided.

We’re committed to finding new treatments for Lewy Body Disease. The more people taking part in clinical trials, the more likely we are to be able to do so.

Lewy Body Clinical Trial Frequently Asked Questions:

What Is Involved in this Study?

If you qualify and agree to be in this study, you will visit the study site for medical tests and assessments. Most visits will last from one to three hours, and two visits will last longer, potentially four to six hours.

You will be randomly placed into one of two treatment groups. One group will receive the study drug, and the other group will receive a placebo. The placebo looks like the study drug, but contains no active ingredient. The study drug (or the placebo) is a capsule you will take once a day, every morning, with or without food. Neither you nor the study staff will know which group you are in.

Participation is completely free and you are free to stop you participation at any point should you wish.

Will I Be Paid to Participate in this Study?
