Actual (reported)Since its launch in 2004, the overarching aim of the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) has been realized in informing the design of therapeutic trials in AD. ADNI3 continues the previously funded ADNI-1, ADNI-GO, and ADNI-2 studies that have been combined public/private collaborations between academia and industry to determine the relationships between the clinical, cognitive, imaging, genetic and biochemical biomarker characteristics of the entire spectrum of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The overall goal of the study is to continue to discover, optimize, standardize, and validate clinical trial measures and biomarkers used in AD research.

Actual (reported)Rate of change in cognition as measured by the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive (ADAS-Cog13)
The ADAS-Cog is an in-person examiner-administered, structured scale that evaluates memory (word recall, word recognition), reasoning (following commands), language (naming, comprehension), orientation, ideational praxis (placing letter in envelope) and constructional praxis (copying geometric designs). Ratings of spoken language, language comprehension, word finding difficulty, and ability to remember test instructions are also obtained.
5 years
Rate of change in cognition as measured by the Logical Memory Test I and II
5 years
Rate of change in cognition as measured by the Mini-Mental State Examinations (MMSE)
The MMSE scale evaluates orientation, memory, attention, concentration, naming, repetition, comprehension, and ability to create a sentence and to copy two overlapping pentagons.
135-500 newly enrolled participants with no apparent memory problems, and 295-300 cognitively normal participants followed from the ADNI2 study. Currently recruiting non-Caucasian participants only for the normal cognition group.
150 - 515 newly enrolled participants with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and 275-320 MCI participants followed from the ADNI2 study.
85 - 185 newly enrolled participants with mild Alzheimer's disease (AD) dementia, and 130 - 150 mild AD participants followed from the ADNI2 study.
Cognitively normal (CN), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and mild AD dementia participants.
