Las Vegas, NevadaAges 60 years+ - NCT05594017RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Test medicine to change brain rhythms and study memory
This early research study tests whether a medicine can change the brain’s electrical “rhythms” while people do memory-related tasks. It may help researchers understand how brain timing affects memory in people who are already being evaluated with specialized brain electrode monitoring.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–55 - NCT05606341RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a diabetes-style shot to boost brain immunity in early Alzheimer’s
This Phase 1 study tests whether stimulating the immune system (through a receptor called TLR9) is safe and may affect brain changes in people with early Alzheimer’s. It mainly enrolls older adults with memory impairment confirmed by specific amyloid imaging.
New York, New YorkAges 60–85 - NCT05625425Recruiting
Study testing a memory and wayfinding training program
This study tests a wayfinding (getting around) training program and how it may affect long-term memory. You may need brain scans (fMRI), virtual reality tasks, and regular short walks to participate.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 60–85 - NCT05710549Recruiting
Brain study of autobiographical memory using brain stimulation
This study looks at how the brain supports remembering your own past experiences. It tests brain mechanisms using brain scanning (MRI) and noninvasive brain stimulation to see how these memory processes work.
Geneva, Canton of GenevaAges 18–85 - 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+ - NCT05771844Recruiting
Home sleep treatment for older adults with memory changes
This study tests whether a home sleep therapy program can improve symptoms in older adults who have amnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or help compare to people without MCI. It may be useful if your main issue is memory or thinking changes and you also have sleep problems.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 40–85 - NCT05822362RecruitingPhase 2
CBD for People with Early Memory Trouble Risk
This Phase 2 study tests whether CBD (a cannabis-derived product) can improve thinking and memory in people who are at risk for Alzheimer’s disease. You would be followed for about 24 weeks with memory/thinking check-ins and require a study partner to help with certain assessments.
