Summary

The Digital Cognitive Multi-domain Alzheimer's Risk Velocity (DC MARVEL) study is a 2-year randomized controlled trial on dementia prevention. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of a digital cognitive health program on dementia risk, cognitive function, and general health outcomes in middle age to older adults compared to a control group that receives health education.

Detailed description

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is expected to affect 131 million people worldwide by 2050, but as many as 40% of these cases may be prevented by targeting modifiable risk factors such as diet, physical activity, cognitive engagement, and smoking. Neurotrack Technologies, Inc. will test the efficacy of a digital multi-domain lifestyle intervention with health coaching for cognitive health designed to change behaviors associated with increased risk for AD. This digital intervention addresses the challenge of scaling effective multi-domain lifestyle interventions for cognitive health and has the potential to improve risk behaviors, thereby reducing and/or delaying cognitive decline in older adults at risk for AD.
