β-AARC: Cohort Study for the Identification of Blood-based Biomarkers in a Population With Subjective Cognitive Decline

The overall (cross-sectional) objective of this study is to detect and describe the profile of AD-related blood biomarkers in a population with SCD (including individuals with MCI) with the ultimate goal of investigating their capacity to predict underlying AD pathology. Longitudinally, the β-AARC\_BBRC2021 study fundamentally aims at assessing the ability of AD-related blood-based biomarkers to predict disease progression in the Alzheimer's continuum. To achieve these cross-sectional and longitudinal objectives, an exhaustive set of clinical, risk factors, cognitive, mental health and neuroimaging data will be collected, as well as blood and CSF samples, from which AD-related fluid biomarkers will be determined. As a secondary objective, we will investigate the efficacy and accuracy of the Altoida NMI as a novel digital biomarker for identifying patients with SCD or MCI that have underlying AD pathology (cross-sectionally) and to test the capacity of the Altoida NMI to track disease progression in these popoulations (longitudinally).
