Recruiting studies
- NCT05042102RecruitingPhase 2
Donepezil plus brain training for alcohol use disorder
This Phase 2 study tests whether donepezil, along with structured cognitive (brain) training, can improve outcomes for people with alcohol use disorder. It will measure whether this combination helps after recent heavy drinking, while tracking safety over about 13 weeks.
West Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–80 - NCT07066826RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Huperzine A for mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's dementia
This study tests whether Huperzine A controlled-release tablets can help improve memory and thinking in people with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease. You'll take the tablets or a placebo to see if it slows down dementia symptoms.
BeijingAges 50–85 - NCT04661280RecruitingPhase 3
Donepezil compared with non-drug care for Alzheimer’s
This trial compares donepezil (a medicine for Alzheimer’s symptoms) against a non-drug treatment plan. It aims to see which approach helps people with Alzheimer’s who still have measurable thinking ability and specific Alzheimer’s test results.
ParisAges 50 years+ - NCT03810794Recruiting
Acupuncture study for people with Alzheimer’s memory problems
This trial tests whether acupuncture can improve symptoms in people with Alzheimer’s disease. You may qualify if you have memory and thinking changes consistent with Alzheimer’s and meet imaging and brain-scan score requirements.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 50–85 - NCT05592678Recruiting
Study brain and memory test changes in Alzheimer’s or mild issues
This study looks at how well people with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) or mild cognitive impairment (MCI) perform on standardized memory/brain tests. It may help researchers understand changes over time, and whether certain types of brain signals or test results track with the condition.
San Antonio, TexasAges 65–100 - NCT06041789RecruitingPhase 2
Testing donepezil for bone health in memory loss
This study tests whether a memory medication called donepezil (Aricept) can help strengthen bones in people with memory problems. If you have mild cognitive impairment or dementia and are not already on a similar medication, you may be able to join.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 50 years+ - NCT06417086Recruiting
Acupuncture for Alzheimer's in gene carriers and non-carriers
This trial tests whether acupuncture can help people with Alzheimer's disease. Researchers will compare results in people who carry the APOE e4 gene and those who don't, to see if the treatment works differently.
ShanghaiAges 50–80 - NCT07208344RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Umbilical cord blood infusion for Alzheimer's disease
This early-phase study tests whether infusing donated umbilical cord blood (a source of young immune cells) can help slow Alzheimer's disease. It is for people aged 50–75 with mild to moderate Alzheimer's who have a caregiver and are otherwise generally healthy.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Donepezil?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 8 recruiting studies that include Donepezil, drawn from the U.S. registry and rewritten for real people so you can see what each is testing and who it's for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a Donepezil trial?
- Each study lists its own eligibility criteria — rules about condition, age, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 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.
- Is Donepezil an approved treatment?
- A drug being studied in a trial may be investigational (still being tested) or already approved and being studied for a new use. Each study page explains what phase it's in. Clin2 does not provide medical advice — talk with your doctor about whether Donepezil or a specific trial is right for you.
