Recruiting studies
- 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 - NCT05405075Recruiting
Alzheimer’s research study with brain tests and blood samples
This study supports Alzheimer’s research by collecting health and thinking (cognitive) test results and blood samples to study genetics and biomarkers. You may be enrolled if you’re age 40 or older and can do these checkups, even if you have mild memory problems or dementia.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 40 years+ - NCT05516667Recruiting
Study of Alzheimer’s patients and their families
This study follows people with Alzheimer’s disease and family members over 2 years. It uses regular questionnaires and medical checkups to better understand needs and health changes for patients and caregivers.

Study stress effects in people at risk for Alzheimer’s
This study looks at how stress may affect thinking and memory in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) who are at risk for Alzheimer’s disease. You may be asked to do thinking tests and also involve a knowledgeable person who can report on changes over time.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 60 years+ - NCT06179680Recruiting
White matter changes in memory problems or Alzheimer's
This study uses brain MRI scans to look at white matter changes in people with memory problems (amnestic mild cognitive impairment) or Alzheimer's disease. It aims to understand how these changes relate to memory loss.
San Donato Milanese, MilanoAges 65 years+ - NCT06385951Recruiting
Virtual reality navigation test for early Alzheimer's detection
This study uses a virtual reality navigation task to detect early signs of Alzheimer's disease. It compares people with mild cognitive problems, mild Alzheimer's, and healthy older adults to see if this test can spot the disease earlier.

Study of cell energy in Alzheimer's and other dementias
This study looks at how energy production in cells (mitochondria) differs in people with Alzheimer's or other dementias compared to healthy volunteers. It involves a one-time spinal tap to collect fluid for analysis.
Nice, PACAAges 18 years+ - NCT07073066Recruiting
Lymphatic surgery for Alzheimer's disease (CLEAN-AD trial)
This trial tests a surgical procedure that connects lymphatic vessels in the neck to help clear waste from the brain in people with moderate-to-severe Alzheimer's disease. The goal is to see if this can improve thinking and memory.
Dongguan, GuangdongAges 50–80 - NCT07109999Recruiting
Biomarker study for Alzheimer's disease
This study uses brain scans or spinal fluid tests to confirm Alzheimer's-related changes. It aims to track the disease over time to better understand and improve care.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 40 years+ - NCT03035851Recruiting
Exercise program for older adults at risk of memory decline
This trial tests whether a structured aerobic (heart-pumping) exercise program can improve memory and thinking in older adults who feel memory trouble but have not been diagnosed with dementia. It focuses on people who are “at increased risk” due to common health factors like high blood pressure or diabetes.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 50–80 - NCT07598617Recruiting
Testing a New Computer Memory Assessment for Early Cognitive Changes
This study evaluates a new computer-based test to detect early memory and thinking changes before they progress to dementia. Researchers are looking for adults 65+ who've noticed subtle cognitive changes in the last 5 years to help refine and test this assessment tool.
Plymouth, DevonAges 65 years+ - NCT07202494Recruiting
Brain aging and resilience MRI study
This study uses powerful MRI scans to understand how the brain ages and why some people stay healthy while others develop neurological diseases like multiple sclerosis or Alzheimer's. It compares healthy volunteers to people with certain conditions, and all participants get a detailed brain MRI.
MarseilleAges 18–90 - NCT02795052Recruiting
Stem cell treatment trial for nerve injury
This study tests whether bone-marrow stem cells can improve nerve function in people with nerve damage that usually doesn’t recover with current care. It also checks whether the treatment is safe and whether people can be followed over time with repeated nerve exams.
Westport, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT07306598Recruiting
PET imaging for tau-related brain diseases
This trial uses a special imaging agent called [18F]NIDF to take pictures of tau protein clumps in the brain, which are linked to Alzheimer's and other memory or movement disorders. It may help doctors see these changes more clearly.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–90 - NCT07239310Recruiting
Device to improve memory and thinking in early Alzheimer's
This study tests a device called Neuclare that aims to temporarily boost memory and thinking skills in people with mild cognitive impairment or very early Alzheimer's disease. It could offer a non-drug way to help with daily mental tasks.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for alzheimer’s disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 595 recruiting alzheimer’s disease 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 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 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.
