Testing a new drug for Alzheimer's dementia
This study tests whether a new drug called Latrepirdine (DMB-I) is safe and effective for people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's dementia. It may help slow cognitive decline when added to current treatment or used alone.
Kazan'Ages 60–90 - NCT06194799Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Long-term ACP-204 for Alzheimer's psychosis
This study tests a long-term medicine (ACP-204) for people with Alzheimer's disease who also have psychosis (hallucinations or delusions). If you took part in the earlier ACP-204 study, this open-label extension lets you continue receiving the medicine to see how well it works over time.
Costa Mesa, CaliforniaAges 55–95 - NCT07265323Recruiting
Testing insulin effects on brain function
This study looks at how giving insulin in a way that mimics the body's natural release can affect thinking and memory. It may help understand how insulin relates to brain health.
Baton Rouge, LouisianaAges 18 years+ - NCT07264439Recruiting
Virtual reality with hypnosis for Alzheimer's patients during hygiene care
This trial tests whether virtual reality headsets showing hypnosis scenes can reduce agitation and resistance during bathing or toileting in people with Alzheimer's disease. It aims to make daily care calmer and less stressful for patients and caregivers.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT07272811Recruiting
Computer memory testing for early Alzheimer's signs
This study uses a computer-based platform to test memory and thinking in healthy adults and in people with mild memory concerns (called aMCI). The goal is to better understand how memory changes with age and to spot early signs of Alzheimer's disease.
Milan, ItalyAges 55–80 - NCT07294885Recruiting
Lymphatic surgery for Alzheimer's disease
This study tests a surgical procedure to connect lymph vessels in the neck to veins, which may help clear waste from the brain in people with mild cognitive impairment or mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. It is for patients who have not improved after at least 3 months of standard care.
ShenyangAges 50–80 - NCT07303998Recruiting
Brain stimulation and chair yoga for knee pain in Alzheimer's
This study tests two treatments together for people with Alzheimer's who also have chronic knee pain: a gentle brain stimulation (tDCS) and online chair yoga. The goal is to see if these can reduce knee pain and improve daily life.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 60 years+ - NCT07323927RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing galcanezumab for Alzheimer's disease
This trial tests whether galcanezumab, an antibody injection, can help people with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease. It is for patients who have a confirmed Alzheimer's diagnosis and a caregiver who can support them.
BeijingAges 50–90 - NCT07332260RecruitingPhase 1
Fecal transplant for Alzheimer's disease
This study tests whether a fecal transplant (transferring healthy bacteria from a donor's stool into your colon) can improve memory and thinking in people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's. You would receive the transplant via colonoscopy and have follow-up brain scans.
Tromsø, TromsAges 18 years+ - NCT07341009Recruiting
Study of time processing skills in Alzheimer's disease
This study uses a brain game to measure how people with Alzheimer's disease process the passage of time. The goal is to better understand this ability, which could lead to new ways to support patients.
CaenAges Any age - NCT07679906Recruiting
Nationwide digital study for Alzheimer’s prevention and trial readiness
This study uses a saliva sample and online tools to see if you have a genetic risk factor for Alzheimer’s. It aims to build a large group of people who may be at higher risk, so they can be invited to future prevention trials.
HuningueAges 45 years+ - NCT07328451RecruitingPhase 1
Study of DNL628 for people with early Alzheimer's disease
This trial tests an experimental drug, DNL628, to see if it is safe and how it affects people with early Alzheimer's disease. It may help slow the disease by targeting a specific process in the brain.
's-HertogenboschAges 18–75 - NCT07367815RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cells from fat tissue for Alzheimer's disease
This trial tests whether stem cells from donated fat tissue can help people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. It combines infusions of these cells with standard care, and includes brain scans and memory tests to see if the treatment is safe and effective.
ToulouseAges 50–85 - NCT02022943Recruiting
Join an Alzheimer's prevention registry website
This trial builds a registry so researchers can contact you about future Alzheimer’s studies. It mainly requires agreeing to the registry’s website terms and conditions.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18–110 - NCT02795052Recruiting
Stem cell treatment trial for nerve injury
This study tests whether bone-marrow stem cells can improve nerve function in people with nerve damage that usually doesn’t recover with current care. It also checks whether the treatment is safe and whether people can be followed over time with repeated nerve exams.
Westport, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT02414347Recruiting
Tau PET scan study for Alzheimer’s disease
This study uses a PET brain scan with a small injected tracer to look for “tau” protein changes linked to Alzheimer’s disease. It may help researchers better understand how tau appears in people who are cognitively normal or have mild dementia.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT02800395Recruiting
Study links brain changes to diet and blood markers in Alzheimer’s
This study looks at how diet-related and blood “stress” markers relate to how thinking and memory decline over time in people with Alzheimer’s. It may help researchers find useful biomarkers to better track progression and guide future care.
Pierre-BéniteAges 55 years+ - NCT02649985RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
PET brain scan study for several brain and mood conditions
This early-phase study uses PET and MRI brain scans to better understand brain changes in multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, and other neurological or mood conditions. The goal is to test whether these scans can show disease-related differences and guide future treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–85 - NCT02811653Recruiting
Brain movement and memory study in early dementia
This study looks at how “slower movement” and brain changes relate to memory and thinking problems in people with early dementia (and some related conditions). It may help researchers understand what brain differences go with these symptoms, using tests and an MRI scan.
AmiensAges 40–85 - NCT03035851Recruiting
Exercise program for older adults at risk of memory decline
This trial tests whether a structured aerobic (heart-pumping) exercise program can improve memory and thinking in older adults who feel memory trouble but have not been diagnosed with dementia. It focuses on people who are “at increased risk” due to common health factors like high blood pressure or diabetes.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 50–80 - NCT02564692Enrolling by invitation
APOE gene testing registry to find Alzheimer’s prevention studies
This program enrolls people to get a gene test (APOE) so researchers can match you to Alzheimer’s prevention studies in the future. If you qualify, you do the test but you would not receive your gene test results.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 50–90 - NCT02414178Enrolling by invitation
Tau PET brain scan for inherited Alzheimer’s disease
This study uses a special brain scan to measure “tau” buildup in people with an inherited form of Alzheimer’s. It may help researchers better understand disease changes and evaluate whether the scan can track them over time.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for alzheimer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 627 recruiting alzheimer 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 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 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.
