- NCT05004987RecruitingPhase 4
Study brain and blood changes in older adults with depression
This study looks at how a brain protein linked to Alzheimer’s disease changes over time in older adults who have major depression but no major memory problems. It involves brain scans, blood and urine tests, and a spinal fluid sample to better understand the connection between depression and brain aging.

Testing a stress-blocking drug for early Alzheimer's risk
This study tests a new medication, CORT108297, that may help protect the brain from the harmful effects of stress in people at risk for Alzheimer's disease. It is looking for adults age 55 and older who either have mild memory problems or are healthy but have a family history, APOE4 gene, or memory concerns.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 55 years+ - NCT04104659Enrolling by invitation
Tau PET scan study to map brain changes in Alzheimer’s
This study tests a PET scan “tracer” medicine called [18F]MK-6240 to see how tau protein changes show up in the brain. It may help researchers measure disease-related brain changes in people with normal thinking or mild dementia.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT03860857RecruitingPhase 3
Study biomarkers in memory aging and brain health
This Phase 3 study looks for blood/brain “biomarkers” linked to aging, memory changes, and early brain degeneration. It may help researchers better identify who is at risk and how biology relates to thinking and memory, using brain scans and thinking tests.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 60 years+ - NCT04956549Recruiting
Exercise program for early memory loss in African Americans
This study tests whether a structured exercise program can lower Alzheimer’s risk in older African American adults who have mild cognitive impairment (MCI). You’ll be placed by chance into an exercise group or a comparison group and attend group sessions for about a year.
Baton Rouge, LouisianaAges 60 years+ - NCT06891716RecruitingEarly Phase 1
PET scan for TDP-43 proteinopathies
This study tests a new PET scan dye that may help see TDP-43 protein buildup in the brain, which is linked to certain dementias and ALS. It aims to improve diagnosis and tracking of these conditions.
AmsterdamAges 40–70 - NCT07775625Recruiting
Music therapy for anxiety in Alzheimer's disease
This study tests whether a specially designed music activity can help lower anxiety in people with Alzheimer's disease. If you or a loved one has Alzheimer's and feels anxious, this trial may offer a non-drug way to feel calmer.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 55 years+ - NCT07764185RecruitingPhase 2
Recharge and support program for dementia caregivers
This study tests an online program designed to help caregivers of people with Alzheimer's or other dementias recharge and reduce stress. It may help you feel more supported and better able to handle caregiving challenges.
Campbell, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07764679RecruitingPhase 3
Brain scan to detect Alzheimer's plaques
This study tests a new PET brain scan that uses a special dye to show amyloid plaques, which are linked to Alzheimer's disease. It may help doctors see if your memory problems are caused by Alzheimer's or something else.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 40 years+ - NCT07752784RecruitingPhase 3
Tau brain imaging in people with mild thinking changes or Alzheimer's
This study uses a special PET scan to take pictures of abnormal tau protein in the brain. It aims to see if the scan results match what is found in brain tissue after death, which could help improve diagnosis of Alzheimer's and related conditions.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 50 years+ - NCT07672938Recruiting
Olive supplement and Mediterranean diet for mild memory loss
This trial tests whether a dietary supplement made from olive polyphenols, combined with following a Mediterranean diet, can help protect thinking and memory in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It may be a good fit if you have early memory changes and want to try a nutrition-based approach.
Thessaloniki, Central MacedoniaAges 50–85 - NCT07643363Recruiting
Brain Stimulation for Cognitive Impairment in Dementia
This study tests a new brain stimulation technique called temporal interference stimulation to help slow cognitive decline in people with Alzheimer's disease or frontotemporal dementia. Researchers will combine this stimulation with cognitive training to see if it improves memory and thinking skills.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 45–85 - NCT07611396Recruiting
Study of brain changes in memory and thinking with aging
This study follows people with normal thinking, early memory problems, or Alzheimer's disease to understand how the brain changes over time. Researchers will use smell tests, blood work, and memory testing to learn more about these conditions and potentially help future treatments.
Germantown, MarylandAges 55 years+ - NCT07580703RecruitingPhase 1
Brain Imaging Study for Memory and Thinking Changes
This study tests a new type of brain scan (called [18F]Flortaucipir PET) that may help detect early signs of Alzheimer's disease. Researchers want to make sure the scan is safe and works well in Chinese patients aged 50–85 with normal thinking, mild memory problems, or Alzheimer's disease.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 50–85 - NCT07486037Recruiting
Exercise program for African American Alzheimer's caregivers
This study is for African American caregivers of someone with Alzheimer's or a related dementia. It explores whether a gentle exercise program can help you feel better and manage the stress of caregiving.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18–99 - NCT07466394Recruiting
Early detection of thinking problems study
This study tests a new way to find early signs of memory or thinking problems in older adults. It could help identify people who might benefit from earlier support or treatment.
MünchenAges 60 years+ - NCT07457138Recruiting
Brain health study for people with memory worries
This study looks at people who are worried about their memory or thinking skills, even if tests show no problems. It aims to understand brain health over time in a Lombardy clinic.
Costa Masnaga, LombardyAges 18 years+ - NCT07383311Recruiting
Natural supplements for memory and sleep
This study tests whether certain natural compounds (autophagy enhancers) can improve sleep in people with age-related memory concerns, including those with mild cognitive impairment and those with only subjective declines.
Greifswald, Mecklenburg-VorpommernAges 55–75 - NCT07328386Recruiting
Neck surgery for brain lymphatic disorder
This trial tests a neck surgery (lymphaticovenous and lymph node-to-vein anastomosis) to see if it improves symptoms in people with Alzheimer's disease linked to a brain lymphatic circulation disorder. It focuses on those with moderate-stage Alzheimer's and confirmed amyloid buildup.
SeoulAges 19–100 - NCT07298876Enrolling by invitation
Ultrasound for memory and sleep in early Alzheimer's
This study tests if a gentle ultrasound treatment to the brain can help improve memory and sleep quality in people with very early Alzheimer's disease. If you have mild memory issues and trouble sleeping, this low-intensity approach might be a safe option to explore.

Testing Centella asiatica for memory problems in older adults
This Phase 1 study tests whether Centella asiatica (a plant-based supplement) is safe and reaches its intended target in people with mild cognitive impairment or early Alzheimer’s disease. It also checks how it affects memory-related brain measures like MRI scans, which is why multiple scans are required.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for alzheimer's disease dementia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 471 recruiting alzheimer's disease dementia 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's disease dementia 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's disease dementia 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.
