Recruiting studies in Florida
- NCT04916210Recruiting
Study how stroke type affects thinking and recovery
This study looks at what predicts memory and thinking problems after different types of stroke or brain bleeding, and how blood-vessel changes relate to recovery. You may be invited if you recently had a stroke/bleed and can complete a baseline check within 6 weeks.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05543681RecruitingPhase 2
Study drug for agitation in Alzheimer’s dementia with caregiver support
This Phase 2 trial tests a study medicine to reduce “agitation” behaviors in people with Alzheimer’s dementia. You and your caregiver would complete required assessments and may need genetic and blood testing to check how the body handles the drug.
Maitland, FloridaAges 60 years+ - NCT05748613Recruiting
Anxiety-focused skills training for people with Alzheimer’s
This study tests a treatment aimed at reducing anxiety in people who have Alzheimer’s disease or related memory problems. It also involves a support partner, and the goal is to see whether the program can lower anxiety and stress day-to-day.
Tallahassee, FloridaAges 60 years+ - 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.
Melbourne, FloridaAges 60–90 - NCT07602582RecruitingPhase 3
Donanemab Extension Study for Alzheimer's Disease
This is a follow-up study for people who already completed a previous donanemab trial (AACM). Donanemab is a medication designed to slow cognitive decline in early Alzheimer's disease by targeting amyloid buildup in the brain.
Tampa, FloridaAges 55 years+ - NCT06722352Recruiting
Palliative care education for dementia in assisted living
This study trains staff in assisted living facilities to better support residents with dementia and their families in planning future care. It focuses on helping families talk about advance care planning (decisions about future medical care) with the care team.
Tampa, FloridaAges 21 years+ - NCT06781333RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cells for behavior problems in Alzheimer's
This trial tests whether a single infusion of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) can improve difficult behaviors like agitation, anxiety, or hallucinations in people with Alzheimer's disease. It's designed for those who have been taking antipsychotic medication for at least 4 weeks and have a study partner to help track behavior changes.
Miami, FloridaAges 55–90 - NCT07349706Recruiting
Breathing exercise for dementia risk reduction
This trial tests a simple breathing exercise done for about 5–10 minutes each day for 8 weeks. It aims to see if this exercise can reduce your risk of dementia. If you are between 60 and 80 years old and have at least one risk factor for dementia, this study may be a fit for you.
Tallahassee, FloridaAges 60–80 - NCT07049341Enrolling by invitation
A pilot trial of the MemorEM device for neurological diseases
This trial tests a device called MemorEM to see how patients with neurological diseases like Alzheimer's or Parkinson's experience it. It aims to understand if the device is comfortable and easy to use.
Tampa, FloridaAges 45–100 - NCT06860828Enrolling by invitation
Football players and brain health study: DIAGNOSE CTE
This study looks at brain changes in former college and professional football players, people with memory problems, and healthy controls. It aims to learn more about chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) and Alzheimer's disease.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 50 years+ - NCT06809725Enrolling by invitation
Study of a headband device for cognitive health check
This study tests a new way to check cognitive (thinking and memory) health using a simple headband that measures electrical signals on your scalp. It is looking for people 65 to 90 years old, with or without memory concerns, and a family member or friend who can also take part.
Miami, FloridaAges 65–90

What taking part in a dementia study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there dementia clinical trials in Florida?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 35 recruiting dementia studies with a site in Florida, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a dementia study in Florida?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Florida to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Florida, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a dementia trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New dementia studies open in Florida regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
