Clinical Trial List

Current Clinical Trials

At the UCSF Memory and Aging Center, the Boxer Lab is currently running clinical trials for treatments of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) and Frontotemporal Dementias (FTD), including Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP).

These trials test a wide range of compounds with different therapeutic targets. Two of those targets are the proteins beta-amyloid and tau. During disease, these proteins may clump together in structures called “plaques” or “tangles”, and ultimately cause brain cells to die. The plaques and tangles are typically considered hallmarks of AD and FTD.

New trials are always launching, so if you don’t see one that fits what you’re looking for, check back in a month or two.
