ParisAges 18–90 - 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+ - 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+ - NCT05048966Recruiting
Comparing two wellness support groups for brain injury and dementia
This study compares two group wellness programs for people with brain injuries or dementia and their caregivers. It aims to see which program helps improve well-being and quality of life for both the person with the condition and their support person.
East Hanover, New JerseyAges 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+ - NCT04905238Enrolling by invitation
Sleep apnea study linking breathing markers to memory changes
This trial looks at how severe sleep apnea breathing patterns relate to body “biomarkers” linked to Alzheimer’s disease, using blood or other measures. It may help researchers understand whether sleep apnea is connected to memory and brain health—and who might benefit most from better sleep care.
Palma, Balearic IslandsAges 18–65 - NCT04240665Enrolling by invitation
Test a digital notebook for memory problems
This study tests a digital “memory notebook” to help people who have early memory concerns keep track and report changes over time. It may be useful if you’re having mild memory issues and can complete surveys with a study partner.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 60 years+ - NCT04124029Recruiting
How head injuries affect brain health
This study looks at how mild or moderate head injuries (concussions) may relate to brain conditions like chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) and Alzheimer's disease. By comparing people with and without head injuries, researchers hope to learn more about what causes brain changes over time.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 30–90 - NCT00585572Enrolling by invitation
