Expert panel provides guidance for optimized design of early drug trials for Alzheimer s, related dementias An expert panel convened by the Alzheimer s Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF) and The Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration (AFTD) provides guidance on best practices for the design of early drug trials for Alzheimer s disease, frontotemporal degeneration (FTD), and other neurodegenerative dementias. Their guidance was published in the May 18, 2021 issue of Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology ( Value-Generating Exploratory Trials in Neurodegenerative Dementias ).
