KuopioAges 18 years+ - NCT05288842Recruiting
Study spinal fluid and brain changes in dementia types
This study looks at spinal fluid and MRI results in people with Alzheimer’s disease, frontotemporal dementia, or normal thinking (controls). It aims to understand differences in brain-related cells and measure what might help explain or track these conditions.
LilleAges 40–85 - NCT05010603Recruiting
Studies families to understand late-onset Alzheimer’s
This study focuses on people with late-onset Alzheimer’s (and some similar memory diseases) and uses a close family “informant” to share what they’ve noticed. It may help researchers learn more about these conditions and how they progress in families.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 55 years+ - NCT04786223Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Testing an anti-inflammatory PET imaging treatment in memory loss
This Phase 2 study tests whether targeting “neuroinflammation” (inflammation in the brain) can help in Alzheimer’s disease and related memory disorders. You may help researchers by doing several brain scans (including a special PET/CT scan) along with MRI and amyloid imaging to understand what’s happening in the brain.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 60 years+ - NCT04701177Enrolling by invitation
Smartphone-based study of brain biomarkers in memory clinic patients
This observational study follows people with (or at risk for) Alzheimer’s-related brain changes and a comparison group without them. It uses clinic visits, cognitive testing, questionnaires, and possibly a spinal fluid test to better understand brain biomarkers and how they relate to thinking and daily life.
Corfu, CorfuAges 45 years+ - NCT03799991Recruiting
Balance therapy for people with early-to-moderate Alzheimer’s
This trial tests whether an 8-week balance and movement program can help people with early-to-moderate Alzheimer’s who also have inner-ear (vestibular) balance loss. You and a caregiver may learn exercises and attend weekly visits, while researchers compare the results to an active control program.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 60 years+ - NCT04396873RecruitingPhase 1
PET brain scan study of inflammation markers in neurodegeneration
This Phase 1 study tests a PET scan to measure inflammation-related changes in the brain using a medication called ketoprofen. It may help researchers understand which people with certain brain diseases could benefit from treatments aimed at inflammation.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT04335994Recruiting
Home sleep testing for people with memory trouble
This study looks at how well home sleep apnea testing works for people with cognitive impairment (memory/thinking problems) to help improve outcomes. You may be asked to do a home sleep test (and possibly an in-lab test) and will involve a caregiver if needed.
Toronto, OntarioAges Any age - NCT03402919Recruiting
Brain and memory study for people with thinking changes
This study looks at memory and thinking changes using questionnaires, memory testing, and brain scans. It may help researchers better understand neurodegeneration and dementia and how these problems show up over time.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 50–90 - NCT04042532Enrolling by invitation
Theta-burst brain stimulation for younger-onset Alzheimer’s
This trial tests whether a form of brain stimulation (theta-burst stimulation) can improve thinking and memory in people with younger-onset Alzheimer’s. It also compares results with people without dementia who meet similar age and health requirements.
Taoyuan, GuishanAges 50–75 - NCT03657732Recruiting
Study of inherited Alzheimer’s genes in families
This study looks at people from families with inherited Alzheimer’s disease, including those who may be cognitively normal. It uses medical checkups and brain/nerve tests to better understand Alzheimer’s risk and symptoms in families with specific gene changes.
