Risk Evaluation and Education for Alzheimer's Disease (REVEAL) IV

24. September 2018 aktualisiert von: Robert C. Green, MD, MPH, Brigham and Women's Hospital
This study is intended to examine the impact of receiving a genetic risk assessment for Alzheimer's disease (AD) among individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI).

Studienübersicht

Detaillierte Beschreibung

Alzheimer's disease is a common condition affecting memory and thinking. Genes can sometimes be used to provide risk estimates for the eventual development of certain common diseases. Apolipoprotein E (APOE) is one gene which can provide information about a person's chances of developing Alzheimer's disease.

Some people with a diagnosis of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) are curious to learn more about the chance of developing Alzheimer's disease. In the REVEAL IV Study, we are examining the psychological and behavioral impact of learning genetic risk information pertaining to the chance for an individual with MCI to progress to dementia of the Alzheimer's type within three years.

Participation in this study requires an initial phone call which will elicit some demographic information about the participant and his or her study partner. A first in-person visit to the research clinic will consist of an education session, the administration of knowledge and attitudinal surveys and some tests to assess memory and thinking skills. This visit will take approximately 2-3 hours. Participants with MCI will have their blood drawn for genetic testing. Participants will then be randomized to one of two groups. Those in the intervention arm will receive a three-year risk estimate for the chance of progressing to dementia of the Alzheimer's type based on age, the diagnosis of MCI and their own APOE gene test result. Those in the comparison arm will receive a three-year risk estimate for the chance of progressing to dementia of the Alzheimer's type based on age and the diagnosis of MCI, without the APOE gene test result. Participants randomized to the comparison arm will have the opportunity to learn their own APOE gene test result at the end of the study. Participants and their study partners will be followed for 6 months following disclosure of results with 1 additional clinic visit and 1 additional phone interviews.

Waffen und Interventionen

Teilnehmergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandlung
Aktiver Komparator: APOE Genotype Non-Disclosure
Subjects will receive Alzheimer's disease risk disclosure. This assessment is based on age and MCI status alone.
Subjects with MCI will learn a three-year numerical risk estimate for the chance of progressing to dementia of the Alzheimer's type.
Experimental: APOE Genotype Disclosure
Subjects will receive both APOE genotype and Alzheimer's disease risk disclosure. The assessment is based on age, MCI status, and genotype.
Subjects with MCI will learn their own APOE genotype and a three-year numerical risk estimate for the chance of progressing to dementia of the Alzheimer's type.

Was misst die Studie?

Primäre Ergebnismessungen

Ergebnis Maßnahme
Maßnahmenbeschreibung
Zeitfenster
Geriatric Depression Scale
Zeitfenster: Baseline, 6 weeks post-disclosure, and 6 months post-disclosure
A 15-item self-report assessment used to identify depression in the elderly. GDS scores ranged from 0-15. Higher scores indicated greater depression.
Baseline, 6 weeks post-disclosure, and 6 months post-disclosure
Mini State Trait Anxiety Inventory
Zeitfenster: Baseline, 6 weeks post-disclosure, and 6 months post-disclosure
Validated introspective psychological inventory consisting of 6 self-report items pertaining to anxiety affect. Responses are transformed into scores that range from 20 to 80, with higher scores indicating greater anxiety.
Baseline, 6 weeks post-disclosure, and 6 months post-disclosure

Sekundäre Ergebnismessungen

Ergebnis Maßnahme
Maßnahmenbeschreibung
Zeitfenster
Impact of Event Scale (IES)
Zeitfenster: 1-3 Days, 6 Weeks and 6 Months Post-disclosure
The Impact of Event assesses intrusive thoughts and avoidance related to a specific stressful life event. It is a 15-item self-report measure with scores that range from 0 to 75, with greater scores indicating greater distress about the event.
1-3 Days, 6 Weeks and 6 Months Post-disclosure
Psychological Impact of Test Disclosure (IGT-AD)
Zeitfenster: 6 Weeks and 6 Months Post-disclosure
A 15-item scale measuring distress specific to the test results received. Scores range from 0-75, with higher scores indicating greater test-related distress. Higher scores indicate greater distress about the risk assessment.
6 Weeks and 6 Months Post-disclosure
Recall and Comprehension of Risk Information
Zeitfenster: 6 Weeks and 6 Months Post-disclosure
Several measures to assess participant recall and comprehension of personalized risk information for AD. The sum number correct of the two items that were presented to both randomization arms ("What form of APOE increases risk for Alzheimer's disease?", and "What percentage were you given as your 3-year risk of developing Alzheimer's disease?") are summarized here.
6 Weeks and 6 Months Post-disclosure
Participant Satisfaction
Zeitfenster: 6 Weeks and 6 Months Post-disclosure
How well participants' expectations about information, explanations, reassurance, advice, and help in decision making were met. Participants rated satisfaction for each dimension on a 1-7 scale, with higher scores indicating that expectations were met better.
6 Weeks and 6 Months Post-disclosure
User Ratings of Risk Assessment Experience
Zeitfenster: 6 Weeks and 6 Months Post-disclosure
Subjective ratings of the impact of risk assessment. Participants provided ratings on a 1-5 scale, with 1 being "very negative" and 5 being "very positive"
6 Weeks and 6 Months Post-disclosure
Health Behavior and Insurance Changes
Zeitfenster: Baseline, 6 weeks post-disclosure, and 6 months post-disclosure
AD prevention behaviors enacted within the prior two weeks.
Baseline, 6 weeks post-disclosure, and 6 months post-disclosure
Insurance and Advance Planning Changes
Zeitfenster: 6 months post-disclosure
A series of yes/no questions that ask whether the risk assessment motivated changes to insurance or advance planning.
