Digital Lifestyle Coaching for Alzheimer's Disease Prevention in APOE4 Carriers (WellderlyBrain)
9 de junio de 2026 actualizado por: Scripps Translational Science Institute
Wellderly Brain - Alzheimer's Disease Prevention With Lifestyle Coaching Intervention: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Wellderly Brain is a randomized, direct-to-participant trial evaluating whether a virtually delivered, multidomain lifestyle coaching intervention can favorably impact plasma biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (AD) in adults aged 60-80 with APOE4 positivity or elevated polygenic risk.
Participants are recruited through 23andMe and enrolled via the MyDataHelps platform.
Following genetic eligibility screening, 1,200 participants will be randomized to either a digital lifestyle coaching arm (UCardia) or an education-only control arm.
The intervention consists of 16 virtual coaching sessions delivered over 52 weeks.
All participants will wear an Oura Ring for continuous health monitoring and provide dried blood samples at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months for plasma p-tau217 and proteomic profiling via the NULISAseq CNS Disease Panel.
Saliva samples will be collected for epigenetic aging analysis.
The study duration is 14-16 months per participant.

Comparador activo: Virtual Lifestyle Coaching
|
Treatment group will recieve 16 virtual lifestyle coaching sessions with a certified wellness coach over the course of 52 weeks.
Education will focus on activity and sleep (with guidance from Oura ring) and anti inflammatory diet.

Sin intervención: Standard of Care
Participants will receive an Oura Ring with daily metrics of sleep and activity but no supplemental education of guidance on improving their scores.
They will have access to current standard of care worksheets.

Medidas de resultado primarias
Medida de resultado |
Medida Descripción |
Periodo de tiempo |
|---|---|---|
|
Plasma pTau217 Concentration
Periodo de tiempo: Month 1, Month 6, Month 12
|
Plasma phosphorylated tau 217 (pTau217) concentration will be measured from self-collected dried blood spot samples at three timepoints across the 12-month active monitoring period.
Both absolute concentration at each time point and change from baseline will be assessed.

Medidas de resultado secundarias
Medida de resultado |
Medida Descripción |
Periodo de tiempo |
|---|---|---|
|
Composite proteomic brain-aging score
Periodo de tiempo: Month 12
|
A composite proteomic brain-aging score will be derived from proteomic biomarkers associated with biological brain aging, measured via dried blood spot samples collected from participants.
The score represents estimated biological brain age relative to chronological age; lower scores indicate a younger biological brain.
Analysis will be restricted to participants who return all required dried blood spot samples.
|
Month 12
|
|
Neuropsychological Test Composite Score
Periodo de tiempo: Month 1, Month 3, Month 6, Month 9, Month 12
|
A composite neuropsychological score will be derived from repeated administration of validated online cognitive assessments, including the Stroop Test, Processing Speed Assessment Test (PSAT), and Trail Making Test, spanning cognitive domains of attention, processing speed, executive function, and cognitive flexibility over time.
The direction of the composite score will be defined in the statistical analysis plan.
Both composite score at each time point and change from baseline will be assessed.

Physical Activity
Periodo de tiempo: Continuously throughout study completion, an average of 1 year
|
Physical activity will be assessed continuously via Oura Ring throughout the 12-month study period.
Metrics may include daily movement, step count, activity volume, energy expenditure, and overall activity score.
Both metric values at each time point and change from baseline will be assessed.
|
Continuously throughout study completion, an average of 1 year
|
|
Patient Reported Physical Activity
Periodo de tiempo: Once per month throughout study completion, an average of 1 year
|
Self-reported physical activity will be assessed monthly via participant questionnaire measuring average duration, frequency, and intensity of physical activity performed during each assessment period.
|
Once per month throughout study completion, an average of 1 year
|
|
Sleep Health via Oura Ring Sleep Score
Periodo de tiempo: Continuously throughout study completion, an average of 1 year
|
Sleep health will be assessed continuously via Oura Ring wearable device throughout the 12-month study period.
Sleep metrics include total sleep duration, sleep efficiency, REM sleep, deep sleep, sleep latency, sleep timing, restlessness, breathing regularity, blood oxygen saturation, and heart rate variability (HRV), which are combined to generate the Oura Sleep Score (range: 0-100; higher scores indicate better sleep quality).
Both Sleep Score at each time point and change from baseline will be assessed.
|
Continuously throughout study completion, an average of 1 year
|
|
Patient Reported Sleep Quality
Periodo de tiempo: Once per month throughout study completion, an average of 1 year
|
Subjective sleep quality will be assessed monthly via an 11-point rating scale (range: 0-10) measuring how refreshed participants feel upon waking.
Higher scores indicate better subjective sleep quality.
|
Once per month throughout study completion, an average of 1 year
|
|
Heart Rate Variability
Periodo de tiempo: Continuously throughout study completion, an average of 1 year
|
Heart rate variability (HRV) will be assessed continuously via Oura Ring wearable device throughout the 12-month study period.
Higher HRV trends over time are interpreted as indicative of better cardiovascular health.
Both HRV values at each time point and change from baseline will be assessed.
|
Continuously throughout study completion, an average of 1 year
|
|
Dietary Changes
Periodo de tiempo: Once per month throughout study completion, an average of 1 year
|
Self-reported dietary behaviors will be assessed monthly via participant questionnaire.
Measures include dietary pattern adherence (e.g., specific diet type followed), macronutrient and food group intake changes (e.g., protein and vegetable consumption), and self-reported weight changes throughout the study period.
