Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT05460143Recruiting
Optical brain scanning to study memory and thinking
This study uses brain “optical” and possibly MRI scans to understand how thinking and memory work in people with Lewy body dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, or mild memory problems. It may help researchers find better ways to measure brain changes and cognition over time.
CambridgeAges 18 years+ - NCT07012993RecruitingPhase 2
Very low dose PET brain scan study
This study tests whether using a very low dose of radiation for a brain PET scan can still give clear images. If you are eligible, you will get a type of radioactive tracer that helps show amyloid plaques in the brain, often used in Alzheimer's research.
Englewood, New JerseyAges 18–120 - NCT06809725Enrolling by invitation
Study of a headband device for cognitive health check
This study tests a new way to check cognitive (thinking and memory) health using a simple headband that measures electrical signals on your scalp. It is looking for people 65 to 90 years old, with or without memory concerns, and a family member or friend who can also take part.
Miami, FloridaAges 65–90 - NCT06080659Recruiting
Brain network study for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's
This study uses brain scans to look for patterns that might help diagnose memory or movement problems like Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease. It compares people with mild symptoms, like forgetfulness or early Parkinson's, to healthy volunteers.
RennesAges 50–80 - NCT04850053Recruiting
Using brain-related “seeds” to help diagnose Alzheimer’s disease
This study looks for specific markers (“seeds”) that may help doctors diagnose Alzheimer’s disease and distinguish it from other memory or thinking conditions. If you are in the right age range and can complete memory testing and provide a sample, you may help validate a diagnostic approach.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 55–75 - NCT05372172Recruiting
Tennessee Alzheimer’s study for people 60 and older
This study is looking at how brain and memory changes show up in people across the Alzheimer’s spectrum—from normal thinking to mild memory problems to Alzheimer’s disease. You might join if you can do study visits and an MRI and have a reliable study partner available.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 60 years+ - NCT07646054Enrolling by invitation
Lifestyle coaching for preventing Alzheimer's in APOE4 carriers
This study tests a digital lifestyle coaching program designed to help prevent Alzheimer's disease in people who carry the APOE4 genetic variant, which increases risk. Over one year, you'll get personalized health coaching through apps and possibly a smart ring to track your progress.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 60–80 - NCT06417086Recruiting
Acupuncture for Alzheimer's in gene carriers and non-carriers
This trial tests whether acupuncture can help people with Alzheimer's disease. Researchers will compare results in people who carry the APOE e4 gene and those who don't, to see if the treatment works differently.
ShanghaiAges 50–80 - NCT05077579Recruiting
Alzheimer’s scan study for people with higher body weight
This study uses brain scans (MRI and two special PET scans) to see how Alzheimer’s-related changes show up in people who are overweight or obese, with different blood-sugar and insulin patterns. It may help researchers understand whether body weight and metabolism affect early Alzheimer’s markers in the brain.
St Louis, MissouriAges 40–60 - 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.
