Original Press Release:
Oct. 30 — Cognivue issued the following news release:
– Cognivue Clarity®, a non-invasive and repeatable digital cognitive assessment tool that can assess cognitive functioning and amyloid presence, will be evaluated in the Bio-Hermes-002 study.
Cognivue’s FDA-cleared digital cognitive assessment technology will be one of the digital biomarkers used in the Bio-Hermes-002 study. The study will utilize the Cognivue Clarity® device, which digitally customizes the testing experience to each test taker’s baseline visual and motor abilities, providing a sensitive, reliable, and standardized approach to testing. The technology captures over 130,000 data points to enable a multi-domain cognitive assessment.
Its proven ability to distinguish between cognitively normal individuals, those with MCI, and mild dementia—regardless of amyloid status.[1],[2] Validated against standard neuropsychological measures,[3]-[8] Cognivue offers an innovative approach to cognitive testing that benefits both research and patient care.
“The work Cognivue did with GAP as part of the Bio-Hermes-001 study was meaningful. Our technology was in good company; it was an honor to be amongst other esteemed digital and plasma biomarkers in a study with a racially diverse cohort. The data from BH1 showed that Cognivue Clarity can reliably characterize amyloid status, even within the cognitively normal group.
Our participation in BH2 will allow us to continue to gather data to support Cognivue Clarity’s ability to predict underlying AD pathologies and analyze MRI, neuroinflammation and longitudinal data—further establishing Cognivue’s important role in the timely assessment and diagnosis of dementia and enrichment of clinical trial recruitment,” said Paul W. Estes, president of Cognivue. “We look forward to working with our friends at GAP and the trial sites again.”
“Cognivue was a tremendous partner in the inaugural Bio-Hermes study, and we welcome back their novel technology to help us improve the lives of those impacted by Alzheimer’s disease, in Bio-Hermes-002. An Alzheimer’s diagnosis can start at the primary care provider’s office, and the Cognivue technology can make it easier for primary care physicians to evaluate and treat cognitive impairment,” said John Dwyer, president of the Global Alzheimer’s Platform Foundation.
