Description

The DIAN study is a non-treatment investigative initiative to research cognitive and biological changes in the progression of Alzheimer’s disease in patients with a family history of early-onset, dominantly inherited Alzheimer’s. Depending on age, patients will come in for a clinic visit every one to five years, with visit frequency increasing as patient nears family age of disease onset.
