Study of diabetes prevention participants using brain scans
This study looks at how people who previously took part in a diabetes prevention program are doing over time, including brain health using MRI scans for some participants. It may help researchers understand who is at higher risk for memory and thinking problems and why.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges Any age - NCT05671757RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Daratumumab for primary antiphospholipid syndrome
This early-phase study tests daratumumab, an immune-targeting drug, for people with primary antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). It aims to see whether it can reduce APS activity and improve outcomes while you continue your usual blood-thinning treatment.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT05641688RecruitingPhase 3
PET brain scan study for people with terminal illness
This Phase 3 study tests an amyloid/tau PET brain imaging agent (called [18F]PI-2620). It aims to see how well the scan helps with brain pathology findings in people who are expected to have a life expectancy of 1 year or less.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 50 years+ - NCT05658913Recruiting
Tau PET/CT scan study for people in an ongoing cohort
This study uses a special brain scan (tau PET/CT) to look for a protein called tau, and it ties the scan results to information collected in an existing research program. It may help researchers better understand brain changes over time.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–120 - NCT05643144Recruiting
Shared decisions for dementia and diabetes care
This study tests a program that helps people with both memory problems (like dementia or mild cognitive impairment) and diabetes, along with their caregivers, make better care decisions together. It uses a special device to track blood sugar without fingersticks.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 65 years+ - NCT05649098RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing dupilumab for itchy inherited genetic skin disorders
This early trial tests whether dupilumab can reduce itching in people with certain inherited (genetic) inflammatory skin conditions. It may help by calming skin inflammation that causes ongoing itch and sleep problems.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 6 months+ - NCT05661084Recruiting
Non-surgery brain stimulation for dementia thinking and movement
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation device (tES) can improve thinking and movement problems in people with dementia. You (and your caregiver, if needed) will be asked to follow the study plan and attend visits so researchers can measure results and safety.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 55 years+ - NCT05592678Recruiting
Study brain and memory test changes in Alzheimer’s or mild issues
This study looks at how well people with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) or mild cognitive impairment (MCI) perform on standardized memory/brain tests. It may help researchers understand changes over time, and whether certain types of brain signals or test results track with the condition.
San Antonio, TexasAges 65–100 - NCT05592366Recruiting
Testing a hospital tool for unpaid dementia caregivers
This study is testing a care-partner support tool for people who provide unpaid care to a hospitalized adult loved one or partner with dementia-related needs. It may help caregivers and hospitals communicate and coordinate better during a hospital stay.
Madison, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT05597124RecruitingPhase 2
Exercise program to improve brain health in older Black adults
This Phase 2 study tests whether a structured exercise program can improve brain health in adults age 60 and older who are less active and have early thinking/memory concerns. It may help maintain or improve thinking abilities over time, with medical supervision throughout the study.
Newark, New JerseyAges 60 years+ - NCT05574634Recruiting
Study of brain signaling and distraction in aging adults
This study looks at how a deep brain area helps people focus and ignore distractions as we get older. You may be invited if you’re a healthy adult and can safely complete brain-related testing.
Blacksburg, VirginiaAges 18–75 - NCT05586581RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
PET and MRI scans to study brain changes in treated HIV
This study uses PET and MRI scans, plus blood tests and memory/thinking questionnaires, to understand what drives brain problems in people living with HIV even during treatment. It may help researchers learn why symptoms happen and how treatment relates to brain function.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–80 - NCT05558709Recruiting
Test for thinking and behavior skills in neurodegenerative disease
This trial checks a new kind of paper-and-pen (or computer-based) test to better measure thinking and social/behavior skills in people with certain brain diseases. It may help researchers improve how these skills are tracked and understood over time.
ParisAges 18–90 - NCT04770519Recruiting
Family genetic study for eye misalignment and nystagmus
This study looks at genetics in families where eye misalignment (strabismus) and/or constant eye shaking (nystagmus) runs. It may help researchers understand the causes and guide future testing or treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT05475925RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test drug DR-01 for specific blood cancer types
This early-phase study tests DR-01 to treat large granular lymphocytic leukemia (LGLL) or certain aggressive T-cell or cytotoxic lymphomas. It aims to see whether the drug is safe and can shrink or control the cancer.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05452031Recruiting
Sleep program for people with dementia and their caregiver
This study tests a “dyadic” sleep health approach, meaning it works with both you and your caregiver together. It aims to improve sleep when dementia is causing frequent sleep problems, and to see whether a caregiver-involved plan helps both of you.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05398809RecruitingPhase 2
Ruxolitinib for hair regrowth in APECED-related alopecia areata
This Phase 2 study tests ruxolitinib to see if it safely helps regrow hair in people whose alopecia areata is linked to APECED (a rare immune condition). You may qualify if you have significant scalp hair loss for at least 6 months and haven’t had regrowth with other treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 12–75 - NCT05282550RecruitingPhase 2
Trazodone trial to improve sleep in early Alzheimer’s
This study tests whether the sleep medicine trazodone can improve thinking and memory in people with early Alzheimer’s-related changes who also have sleep problems. If better sleep helps the brain, it may improve memory test results over time.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 55 years+ - NCT05260177Recruiting
40 Hz light therapy for mild to moderate Alzheimer’s
This study tests whether a non-invasive 40 Hz light therapy system can help people with early Alzheimer’s. You’ll likely use the device at home and wear a small activity monitor, while doing memory and thinking tests.
RoskildeAges 40 years+ - NCT05231785RecruitingPhase 1
Test drug safety for early Alzheimer’s memory trouble
This Phase 1 trial tests how safe and tolerable ALN-APP is in people with early Alzheimer’s-related mild memory impairment or mild dementia. It may help researchers find a treatment path for early Alzheimer’s, while closely monitoring side effects and basic health markers.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05016219Recruiting
Light therapy to improve sleep and thinking in early Alzheimer’s
This trial studies rhythmic light therapy to help people with early Alzheimer’s or mild memory problems, especially when sleep is getting worse. If you fit the sleep and vision/medical safety requirements, the study may see whether the therapy improves sleep and thinking-related symptoms.
Menands, New YorkAges 55 years+ - NCT05048966Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for alzheimer disease or associated disorder?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,805 recruiting alzheimer disease or associated disorder studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a alzheimer disease or associated disorder trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a alzheimer disease or associated disorder trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
