APOE gene testing registry to find Alzheimer’s prevention studies
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This program enrolls people to get a gene test (APOE) so researchers can match you to Alzheimer’s prevention studies in the future. If you qualify, you do the test but you would not receive your gene test results.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 50 and 90 years old (inclusive)
- Live in the United States
- Share basic information like your contact details, medical history, and demographics
- Agree to have APOE gene testing done, but you will not be told your results
- You should not already report having dementia or any objective memory/cognitive problem

This study looks at how a person’s APOE gene relates to early brain and health changes that could lead to Alzheimer’s. If you are not currently having memory or thinking problems, you may be asked to do brain scans, cognitive testing, and blood plus a spinal fluid sample to support research.
This study supports Alzheimer’s research by collecting health and thinking (cognitive) test results and blood samples to study genetics and biomarkers. You may be enrolled if you’re age 40 or older and can do these checkups, even if you have mild memory problems or dementia.
This study invites people age 50+ who do not have dementia to do ongoing thinking tests online. If an online risk screen suggests you may be at higher risk, you may be referred for in-person body tests (biomarker assessment).
This study looks for brain/biological “signals” (biomarkers) that may identify Alzheimer’s disease earlier, including stages before clear symptoms. You may be followed for about 5 years, with repeated memory and thinking testing to see how these signs relate to future diagnosis.
This study looks at people from families with inherited Alzheimer’s disease, including those who may be cognitively normal. It uses medical checkups and brain/nerve tests to better understand Alzheimer’s risk and symptoms in families with specific gene changes.
This study helps people understand their results from brain scans that measure amyloid and tau proteins, which are linked to Alzheimer's disease. It is for adults 45 and older who are part of specific Alzheimer's research programs and have no dementia diagnosis.
