This study looks at how chemotherapy may affect memory and thinking, using thinking tests and possibly brain imaging. It compares older breast cancer patients who do and do not get chemotherapy, plus a group of healthy older adults.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 60 years+ - NCT07590999Recruiting
Probiotics and Menopause Symptoms: A Research Study
This study tests whether taking a probiotic supplement helps with hot flushes, mood changes, and other symptoms of perimenopause (the years around menopause). Researchers believe gut health may play a role in these symptoms.
Oxford, EnglandAges 45–60 - NCT05881239Recruiting
Remote smell tests to track early Alzheimer’s health changes
This trial uses remote, at-home (or remote) smell-based testing to help researchers assess health in people with preclinical Alzheimer’s disease and in control participants. It may help by showing how well smell-related changes can signal disease status over time.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–100 - NCT07586553Recruiting
Walking Test Study for Older Adults With Memory Concerns
This study tests a special walking pattern called the figure-of-8 walk in older adults who are noticing memory problems but don't have dementia yet. Researchers want to understand how walking ability connects to thinking and memory changes.
Balıkesir, BigadiçAges 65 years+ - NCT06052826RecruitingPhase 2
Geriatric support to speed recovery after CAR-T for older adults
This study tests whether extra geriatric support before and after CAR-T cell therapy helps people 60 and older recover faster. It is for patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma or multiple myeloma who are scheduled for an FDA-approved CAR-T treatment.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 60 years+ - NCT06511674Recruiting
Nerve pain risk study for cancer patients
This study looks at why some people with cancer develop nerve pain (neuropathic pain) during treatment. By tracking your health and symptoms, researchers hope to find ways to predict and prevent this side effect.
AjaccioAges 18 years+ - NCT05629871Recruiting
Tracking sleep changes in early Alzheimer’s and thinking decline
This study looks at how sleep and wake patterns change in people with early Alzheimer’s, and whether these changes relate to memory and thinking decline. You may be asked to do questionnaires, sleep diaries, and possibly a diagnostic spinal fluid test (lumbar puncture) to measure biomarkers.
MontpellierAges 50–85 - NCT06429774Recruiting
Comparing hospital treatments for traumatic brain injury
This study compares how well different hospital teams work together to treat people with traumatic brain injury. It aims to find the best care approach to help patients recover.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 1–89 - NCT03910738RecruitingPhase 2
Testosterone treatment for nerve protection and myelin repair in MS
This Phase 2 study tests whether taking testosterone (for low testosterone levels) can help protect nerves and repair myelin in people with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS). It may be most relevant if your MS is stable and you have low blood testosterone without current androgen treatment.
BesançonAges 18–55 - NCT05649514Recruiting
Studying sleep problems in early Alzheimer’s risk patients
This study looks at sleep problems in people with mild Alzheimer’s disease and whether sleep measurements and questionnaires can help researchers understand early changes. You may be able to join if your diagnosis is mild and you can complete repeated sleep and thinking questionnaires with a family caregiver’s help.
Montpellier, HéraultAges 50–85 - NCT06757569Recruiting
New PET scan for detecting amyloid plaques in the brain
This study tests a newer, shorter PET scan to see if it can detect amyloid plaques (sticky protein clumps linked to memory loss) as well as the standard scan. It may help diagnose cognitive problems with less time in the scanner.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cognitive assessment?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 140 recruiting cognitive assessment 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 cognitive assessment 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 cognitive assessment 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.
