Memory clinical trials

Quiet sounds during deep sleep for memory in older adults

This study tests whether playing a soft, silent sound (or no sound) during deep sleep can improve memory, brain activity, and blood markers. It is for older adults (60-85) who have mild memory issues but are otherwise healthy.

Improving Memory in Portuguese Patients with Multiple Sclerosis

This study tests a new method to improve memory and learning in people with multiple sclerosis who have mild memory problems. You'll undergo memory training and assessments to see if it helps.

Thinking and memory study for mood disorders

This study looks at how people with bipolar disorder or depression process social situations, memory, and thinking. It compares patients, their relatives, and healthy volunteers to better understand these conditions.

Olfactory training for mild cognitive impairment

This trial tests whether daily scent training can help improve memory and thinking in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), a condition that is more than normal aging but not dementia. You would smell different odors at home and track your progress.

Digital brain training in aging

This study tests whether a digital intervention can help older adults (60+) maintain or improve cognitive function. It is designed for healthy adults or those with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and people who do not regularly play a musical instrument or have extensive music training.

NK cells plus atezolizumab for acute myeloid leukemia

Memory and brain stimulation study

This study tests whether a type of brain stimulation (called theta synchronization) can improve memory. It is for healthy adults who are willing to wear a special cap and have their photo taken.

Memory and navigation study in healthy adults

This study uses brain scans (fMRI or iEEG) to understand how healthy people remember locations and navigate spaces. You may be eligible if you are a healthy adult aged 18–40 and meet the screening criteria.

Blood sugar dips and thinking in early or late sleep types

This study looks at how low blood sugar after eating affects thinking and memory in people who are either early birds or night owls. It may help understand if sleep type changes how your brain handles blood sugar dips.

Does breakfast type affect thinking in early or late risers?

This study tests how the glycemic index (how fast a food raises blood sugar) of breakfast affects memory and focus. It compares people who naturally wake early versus late, to see if the ideal breakfast depends on your body clock.

This trial tests a group memory training program for people who have had a brain injury at least 6 months ago and still have memory problems. The training is in Norwegian and aims to help improve memory skills.

Test a digital notebook for memory problems

This study tests a digital “memory notebook” to help people who have early memory concerns keep track and report changes over time. It may be useful if you’re having mild memory issues and can complete surveys with a study partner.

cmf chemotherapy for breast cancer in older adults

This trial tests a combination of three older chemotherapy drugs (cyclophosphamide, methotrexate, and fluorouracil, called CMF) for adults 70 and older with breast cancer. The goal is to see if this treatment is effective and well-tolerated in this age group.

Acupuncture for period loss after chemotherapy

This trial tests whether acupuncture can help bring back periods in young women who lost them due to chemotherapy. It may also help with menopause symptoms for those on hormone-suppressing treatments.

A Study of Counseling Support for Cancer Survivors Age 65+

Enhanced recovery after pituitary tumor surgery

This study tests a standard care plan to help patients recover faster after surgery to remove a pituitary tumor. It may reduce hospital stay and improve recovery.

Brain tumor radiation study using AI planning

This trial tests a new way to plan radiation therapy for brain tumors (gliomas) using artificial intelligence. It aims to make treatment more precise and personalized for people with either aggressive (GBM) or slower-growing (IDH-mutant) gliomas.

Study of brain channels and memory in cocaine users

This research explores how certain brain chemicals (potassium channels) affect memory and thinking in people who use cocaine regularly. The study may help develop better treatments for cocaine use disorder and related thinking problems.

Sound therapy for memory loss in older adults

This study tests whether listening to a special sound (gamma-frequency tones) can help slow down memory loss in older adults. It's for people who have mild memory problems but not dementia or other brain disorders.
