The mission of Accelerate Cures/Treatments for All Dementias (ACT-AD) is to
support accelerating research and approval for transformational therapies to
modify the progression, or relieve symptoms, of all dementias.

ACT-AD brings together companies, advocacy groups, and researchers to interact
with the FDA outside of an IND to explore challenges and themes in ADRD clinical
development. ACT-AD also provides an overview of research priorities for the NIA
and coverage and reimbursement issues for new AD medical products. ACT-AD
translates complex regulatory issues to a wide range of stakeholders, including
patients and caregivers, to create more engagement on issues that would
otherwise be restricted to regulators and companies.


METHODS



Program objectives are:

 * To create a sense of urgency in support of bringing dementia products to
   market;
 * To obtain public and government recognition of dementia as a serious,
   life-threatening epidemic; and
 * To accelerate development of safe and effective disease-modifying and
   symptomatic therapies in dementia.


FDA/ACT-AD ALLIES ANNUAL MEETING



Every year the FDA and ACT-AD convene a roundtable meeting to explore the
current therapeutic and research landscape for Alzheimer’s disease and related
dementias. Sessions address pertinent issues in the field of dementia research
and include presentations from NIH/NIA funded investigators and private
industry.

The 17th Annual FDA/ACT-AD Allies meeting will be held November 7, 2024 at the
Marriott Marquis, 901 Massachusetts Ave., NW, Washington, DC. Attendance is by
invitation only.
