This research study looks at people who have noticed problems with memory or thinking (like trouble focusing or finding words) and visit their primary care doctor for help. It aims to better understand and diagnose conditions that cause these symptoms, such as Alzheimer's disease.
MalmöAges 40 years+ - NCT06122415Recruiting
Memory clinic study with fluid and cognitive tests
This study looks at people who are being checked for memory or thinking problems. It uses standard tests done at the memory clinic, like a spinal tap and blood draw, plus memory and thinking tests, to learn more about these symptoms. You can join if these tests are already planned as part of your regular care, even if you don't take part in the study.
MalmöAges Any age - NCT06088121Recruiting
TMS with cognitive training for mild Alzheimer's dementia
This study tests a combination of brain stimulation (TMS) and cognitive training to improve memory and thinking in people with mild Alzheimer's. It may help if you are already on a stable dose of a donepezil-type medication and have a confirmed Alzheimer's diagnosis.
Incheon, Bupyeong 6(yuk)-dong, Bupyeong-guAges 60–85 - NCT05336695RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Brain scan study to measure fibrin in Alzheimer’s
This early study (Phase 1/2) uses brain imaging to look for “fibrin” (a blood-clot–related protein) in people with Alzheimer’s disease and related conditions. The goal is to understand whether fibrin changes can be seen on scans and what it might mean for Alzheimer’s.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 55–90 - NCT05245903Recruiting
Test a supplement and track brain changes with wearable sensors
This study tests whether taking nicotinamide riboside (a form of niacin) affects early memory changes in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild Alzheimer’s disease (AD). It also uses passive wearable or sensor data (“digital biomarkers”) to measure changes over time.
Belmont, MassachusettsAges 18–89 - NCT06079216Recruiting
Music and connection for older adults
This trial uses music to help older adults in residential care feel more connected. Volunteers will attend music sessions to see if they improve mood and social bonds.
Winchester, MassachusettsAges 18–103 - NCT05950607Recruiting
Nursing home study to reduce unnecessary antibiotic use
This study looks at ways to lower how often antibiotics are used in nursing home residents with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. It aims to make antibiotic use more appropriate while monitoring resident outcomes.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 60–106 - NCT05973448Enrolling by invitation
Nightlight Falls Prevention for People With Dementia
This study tests a simple plan to help prevent falls in people who have dementia. You may be able to join if you live in a participating assisted living community and meet the safety and room rules.
