Testing Centella asiatica for memory problems in older adults
This Phase 1 study tests whether Centella asiatica (a plant-based supplement) is safe and reaches its intended target in people with mild cognitive impairment or early Alzheimer’s disease. It also checks how it affects memory-related brain measures like MRI scans, which is why multiple scans are required.
Portland, OregonAges 60–85 - NCT05688618Recruiting
Probiotic and fiber supplement for mild memory problems
This trial studies whether a daily supplement containing a probiotic and a fiber called inulin can improve mild cognitive impairment (mild memory/thinking difficulties) in older adults. If you have mild cognitive impairment (not dementia), you may be asked to take the supplement and be monitored over time.
Mexico CityAges 70–85 - NCT05708001Recruiting
Testing brain stimulation to improve memory in mild impairment
This study tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation method (tACS) can improve memory in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). A caregiver also helps with the stimulation during the study, and success is measured through study visits and memory-related evaluations.
GenevaAges 55–85 - NCT05725668Recruiting
Dual-task exercise to help prevent falls in memory trouble
This study tests a type of exercise training (doing a physical task while also doing a thinking task) to help older adults with mild memory problems prevent falls. If you have fallen before or have trouble with balance, this program may help you improve safety and coordination.
Springfield, OregonAges 65–95 - NCT05790707Recruiting
Ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation to help memory
This study checks whether a procedure called atrial fibrillation ablation can slow memory problems in people who already have mild cognitive impairment. Participants will be tested on thinking and memory before and after treatment to see if the procedure helps.
AngersAges 60–80 - NCT05791994Recruiting
Study tests visual stimulation to improve attention in mild memory issues
This study looks at whether repeated visual stimulation exercises can improve attention in people age 60+ with a specific type of mild cognitive impairment. A study team will also want you to have an informal caregiver to support participation.
AngersAges 60 years+ - NCT05877196Recruiting
Adaptive walking and fitness program for mild memory decline
This study tests an “adaptive” exercise plan that adjusts over time to help improve aerobic fitness and your body’s fitness response in people with mild memory problems or early Alzheimer’s. It may help you safely build the kind of fitness that supports brain health, while researchers monitor changes with fitness testing and blood work.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 65 years+ - 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.
