- Planned Sample Size
- 256
- Recruitment Window Months
- 11
- Consent Approach
- Informed consent materials include a Main ICF plus country- and language-specific versions and optional/ancillary ICFs (e.g., optional future research, Greenphire notices). Because participants have AD/dementia, the study provides Study-Partner/Caregiver ICFs, Patient-Representative ICFs (country-dependent), and Assent forms. Pregnant-participant and pregnant-partner ICFs are also provided. Documents are available in multiple languages (examples in the dossier: English, Bulgarian, French, Polish, Romanian, Slovak, German, Hungarian, Portuguese, Spanish, Italian, Croatian and others). Consent is supported by caregiver/study-partner processes where capacity may be compromised.
Methods
- Digital marketing and online recruitment (Trialbee digital marketing content, Trialbee landing pages, Trialbee self-assessment and secondary assessment communication).
