Alzheimer’s Disease
Participate in an Alzheimer’s Research Study
We are currently actively looking for eligible participants for the APOLLOE4 study. Interested in learning more? Contact Premiere Research Institute at (561) 296-3838, or fill out the form below.
If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, consider participating in a clinical research study.
Participants receive a high standard of care, and health insurance is not necessary to participate. Patients who qualify for our clinical trials receive all study-related care and treatment at no cost. In some cases, you may be compensated for your time and travel. You may even gain access to research treatments before they become widely available.
Perhaps the best reason to participate in an Alzheimer’s clinical trial is so that you can take an active role in your health care, by educating yourself regarding your condition. You will obtain access to top quality medical care from our Board Certified physicians at a medical research healthcare facility specializing in Alzheimer’s care.
Without volunteers for clinical trials, improved treatments, including a cure for Alzheimer’s disease can never become a reality.
