Alzheimer's disease research study with brain scans and spinal tap
This study at Duke University is looking for people aged 25 to 80 who may be at risk for Alzheimer's disease. It involves brain scans (MRI and PET) and a spinal tap to learn more about the disease and find better ways to detect and treat it early.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 25–80 - NCT05322343Recruiting
Study biobank and brain health in people age 55–80
This study collects blood samples to build a biobank and learn how brain health changes with age. Some participants may also do an MRI scan to better understand brain changes and immune response.
Bordeaux, BordeauxAges 55–80 - NCT06668610Recruiting
Brain stimulation study for mild memory problems
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (tDCS) combined with brain wave recording (EEG) to see if it can improve memory and thinking in people with mild cognitive impairment or early dementia.
Caserta, ItalyAges 55–85 - NCT06647498RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of a treatment for early-onset Alzheimer's caused by a gene change
This study tests a potential disease-modifying treatment for people who have a specific gene mutation that causes early-onset Alzheimer's disease. The goal is to see if the treatment can delay or prevent symptoms.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06639282RecruitingPhase 2
Testing siponimod for mild Alzheimer's dementia
This study tests if a medicine called siponimod, already used for multiple sclerosis, can help people with mild Alzheimer's dementia. You will take a pill daily and be monitored closely for safety and cognitive changes.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 50–85 - NCT06584357Recruiting
Digital and blood markers linked to brain scans in older adults
This study is looking for older adults (60–90) who are either cognitively normal, have mild cognitive impairment (MCI), or have mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's dementia. It aims to see how digital tests and blood-based markers relate to brain scans (amyloid and tau PET). You will need a study partner, undergo MRI and PET scans, and give blood samples.
Atlantis, FloridaAges 60–90 - NCT06597942RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Brain stimulation for Alzheimer's disease
This study tests whether a new type of brain stimulation (called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, or rTMS) with a larger coil can improve memory and thinking in people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. It involves multiple sessions of rTMS and MRI scans.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 55–100 - NCT06570109Enrolling by invitation

This study looks at how frailty affects people newly diagnosed with Alzheimer's dementia. It aims to understand risk factors and outcomes to help improve care.
AalborgAges 65 years+ - NCT06547099Recruiting
Understanding new blood markers in memory loss and dementia
This study is looking for older adults (60+) to help researchers better understand how to detect and track memory changes and dementia. Participants will provide blood samples and other health information over time to identify new markers that might help with early diagnosis.

Time-Restricted Eating for Alzheimer's Disease
This study tests whether a time-restricted eating schedule (eating all meals within a 10-hour window each day) can improve memory and thinking in people with early Alzheimer's disease or mild cognitive impairment. Healthy partners of people with memory problems can also join as a comparison group.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 60 years+ - NCT06529744Recruiting
Using blood tests to better diagnose early dementia
This study is testing whether simple blood tests can help doctors better understand the type and progression of memory or thinking problems in people with early dementia. It aims to improve confidence in the diagnosis and future outlook.

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.
