The next generation of treatments for Alzheimer’s Disease in clinical trials

The latest advances in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease and how Cambridge Cognition are designing and implementing empirically validated and clinically-relevant cognitive tasks to help develop the next generation of Alzheimer’s disease treatments. 

There are presently over 140 drugs being explored as possible treatments for Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) in clinical trials. Of these, nearly 80% are intended to slow the progression of AD.
