Study
Alzheimer’s Disease - Take Action on Cognitive Decline
Alzheimer's disease is an age-related neurodegenerative disease characterized by a progressive decline in cognitive function and the ability to perform activities of daily living that ultimately lead to death from complications of the disease.
Pathological features of the disease identified include neuronal loss, particularly pronounced in areas of the brain important for cognition, such as the hippocampus and temporal cortex.
The present clinical study aims to demonstrate that the medication currently used for this research slows cognitive and functional decline, and to assess the safety of chronic administration, in participants with symptomatic Alzheimer's disease.
To participate, you must:
- Be between 60 and 85 years old
- Have a gradual change in memory function reported by the participant or informant for more than 6 months.
You will be given reimbursement for study-related expenses when you participate in the clinical study and you will be surrounded by a medical team throughout the process.

Explanation
Step 1 | Before starting the study, we will take time to fully explain the selection process and the conduct of the study by phone.
Meeting
Step 2 | After the initial phone interview, if you are still interested in taking part in a study, we schedule a preliminary meeting with you during which you may ask all the questions you wish and take the time you require to read over the consent form. This form explains, in detail, the different stages of each study.
Decision
Step 3 | You may make a decision at that time to move forward with or terminate the selection process. However, you are under no obligation to make an immediate decision. Based on briefing content, you may take the time necessary to come to a decision and consult with your personal physician or loved ones.
Tests
Step 4 | Depending on the nature of the study, some tests or medical examinations may be required. In the majority of cases, these tests or examinations are conducted on Diex Research premises based on your individual availability.
Departure
Step 5 | If you are eligible, you may then begin a clinical study with us.
