CADRO Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
CADRO (RRID:SCR_004046) | CADRO | data or information resource, controlled vocabulary | A classification system developed by the National Institute on Aging and the Alzheimer's Association that can be used to integrate and compare Alzheimer's disease (AD) research portfolios from public and private organizations supporting AD research in the US and abroad. The CADRO was constructed as a three-tier classification system organized around seven major categories: five in research and two resource-related: * Category A. Molecular Pathogenesis and Pathophysiology of Alzheimer's Disease * Category B. Diagnosis, Assessment and Disease Monitoring * Category C. Translational Research and Clinical Interventions * Category D. Epidemiology * Category E. Care, Support and Health Economics of Alzheimer's Diseases * Category F. Research Resources * Category G. Consortia and Public Private Partnerships * Category H. Alzheimer's Disease - Related Dementias Using information from project abstracts and research aims, the above categories were stratified into research topics and these were further divided into research themes. The three levels of classification are meant to enable a fine-grained portfolio analysis that can inform strategic planning and funding decisions. The CADRO was developed as a dynamic portfolio analysis tool that can be used to: (i) capture the changing landscape of AD research funded by different organizations, (ii) identify opportunities for coordination of support for AD research, and (iii) identify funding gaps as well as areas of overlap within and across organizations. | late adult human, alzheimer, aging |

Biomarkers Across Neurodegenerative Diseases Resource Report Resource Website |
Biomarkers Across Neurodegenerative Diseases (RRID:SCR_004015) | BAND | organization portal, data or information resource, portal, consortium, funding resource | Consortium that launched a Request for Applications (RFA) to stimulate analyses across the Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) research enterprises to engage in further data analysis of existing cohorts, including, but not limited to, biomarker discovery, standardization of assays, genetic profiles, and imaging modalities. The RFA aims to build on existing momentum to leverage similar activities and increase impact across the neurodegenerative disease spectrum. It also builds on recent evidence suggesting substantial overlap between AD, PD, and other neurodegenerative diseases pathologically, but also potentially biologically. The RFA is designed to enable preliminary pilot research or proof-of-principle studies utilizing data and/or samples from two large biomarker studies, the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) and the Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI), in order to garner further research support from other funding agencies. Application Deadline: March 19, 2014. Efforts under BAND include studies that: * analyze datasets to test hypotheses related to aging and neurodegenerative disorders; * seek to identify panels or pathways that may play a role in disease mechanisms, such as around inflammation; * pursue shared or disparate biochemical markers of disease risk, onset or progression; * assess potential commonalities across the disease spectrum, including around other neurological disorders such as Lewy body dementia. Recent data reported at the 2013 Alzheimer's Association's International Conference stimulated discussion in the research community about the possible cross talk between AD and PD. For example, underlying pathologies / biomarkers, such as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) alpha-synuclein, have been measured in the sample sets collected for both diseases to help understand similarities and differences in these diseases. Furthermore, similar imaging modalities, such as MRI and PET, are being employed to interrogate changes that occur with disease progression. As therapeutic approaches are developed that may be disease-modifying for several neurodegenerative diseases, stratification of clinical trial populations based on biomarker profiles may increase the probability of success in demonstrating a beneficial effect. | biomarker, grant, standardization, assay, genetic profile, neuroimaging, request for application, data acquisition, method, quality control |

Alzheimers Association Research Roundtable (RRID:SCR_004007) | Research Roundtable | training resource, organization portal, data or information resource, portal, meeting resource, consortium | A consortium aiming to facilitate the development and implementation of new treatments for Alzheimer's disease by collectively addressing obstacles to research and development, clinical care and public health education. The Roundtable convenes twice each year for a two-day presentation and discussion of specific topics within Alzheimer's research. Topics are selected from a list proposed and voted on by members. Roundtable members explore a broad range of Alzheimer's science topics, including: * New data and technologies that may improve the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, especially in its earliest and mildest stages. * Neuropsychological testing, genetic factors, and biochemical and neuroimaging biomarkers that could contribute to an earlier and more accurate Alzheimer's diagnosis. * Lessons learned about clinical trial design that may help shape future clinical trials of drugs aimed at slowing or stopping the progression of Alzheimer's. * The pros and cons of various scales as outcomes measures of clinical trials. The outputs of Roundtable meetings are published as articles in the Alzheimer's Association's journal, Alzheimer's & Dementia. The Research Roundtable also sponsors Alzheimer's Association grants. The chosen project is named Research Roundtable Sponsored Grant and the principal investigator of the project is invited to give a progress report at a Roundtable meeting. | drug, drug development, tool development, product development, discussion, funding resource, diagnosis, neuropsychological testing, genetic, biochemical, neuroimaging, clinical trial, outcome |

International Genomics of Alzheimers Project Resource Report Resource Website |
International Genomics of Alzheimers Project (RRID:SCR_004029) | IGAP | organization portal, data or information resource, portal, data set, consortium | Consortium to discover and map the genes that contribute to Alzheimer's disease and completely understand the role inheritance plays. To achieve this goal, they will work to identify all the genes that contribute to the risk of developing this disease. Investigators will have access to combined genetic data from a large number of Alzheimer's disease subjects and compare it to genetic data from an equally large number of elderly people who do not have Alzheimer's. In the initial phase of the work, more than 20,000 people with Alzheimer's and about 20,000 healthy elderly subjects will be compared. As the study progresses, 10,000 additional people with Alzheimer's and the same number of healthy elderly subjects will be added to the study. The subjects for these studies come from different Alzheimer research project locations across Europe, the UK, the US, and Canada. Data is available from their 2014 publication in Translational Psychiatry at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3944635/ (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24495969) Currently, there is no public access to the raw individual level genetic data because of privacy considerations. Researchers working with US cohorts deposit data in the database of genotypes and phenotypes (dbGaP), where it is available to all researchers who can show that they are able to guarantee the security of the data. After scanning the DNA of over 74,000 patients and controls from 15 countries, the IGAP consortium reported 11 new regions of the genome involved in late-onset Alzheimer's disease.
