Exercise study for people with schizophrenia
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how exercise affects brain function in people with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. It may help researchers understand whether exercise can improve brain-related outcomes alongside standard treatment.

This trial studies how a structured exercise program may affect brain health in people with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. It may help researchers understand whether exercise can support brain function and overall health in this condition.
This study tests whether adding a mild brain stimulation therapy (called tDCS) to a supervised exercise program can help improve thinking and memory in people with treatment-resistant schizophrenia. The goal is to see if combining these activities works better than exercise alone.
This study combines brain stimulation with physical exercise to see if it can improve thinking skills in people with schizophrenia. You will receive a gentle form of brain stimulation while doing exercise.
This study tests a brain-training method called neurofeedback that may help improve thinking and reduce symptoms in people with schizophrenia. You'll get feedback on your brain activity while doing tasks, and the researchers hope it will help your brain work better.
This trial tests whether a combination of at-home (telehealth) aerobic exercise and computer-based cognitive training can improve thinking and day-to-day function after a first episode of schizophrenia-spectrum illness. It may help by strengthening attention and learning skills after the initial psychotic episode.
This study tests whether a combination of a daily medication (olanzapine-samidorphan) and a structured exercise program can help people with schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or bipolar disorder improve their health and well-being.
