Exercise and brain training for older adults at risk of Alzheimer's
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether combining aerobic exercise with cognitive training can help older adults who are at risk for Alzheimer's disease. It aims to see if this combined approach can slow or prevent memory decline.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must speak Mandarin Chinese.
- You must not have been diagnosed with dementia or Alzheimer's disease.
- You must have no major brain or mental health conditions like stroke, epilepsy, psychosis, or severe depression.
- You must not have serious health problems (like cancer or heart disease) that would make it hard to exercise.
- You need a blood test to check for certain brain protein levels — only low levels qualify.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial combines aerobic exercise and cognitive training to help seniors who may be at genetic risk for Alzheimer's disease. The goal is to see if this combination supports thinking and memory.
This trial tests whether a structured aerobic (heart-pumping) exercise program can improve memory and thinking in older adults who feel memory trouble but have not been diagnosed with dementia. It focuses on people who are “at increased risk” due to common health factors like high blood pressure or diabetes.
This study tests whether a healthy lifestyle program—combining nutrition advice and exercise training—can help protect brain health in people with early memory problems. It may be a good fit if you have mild cognitive concerns and are ready to make positive changes.
This study tests whether a 12-month exercise program can help protect memory and thinking skills in older adults who have noticed changes in their memory. You would be asked to exercise at home and attend some group classes.
This Phase 2 study tests whether a structured exercise program can improve brain health in adults age 60 and older who are less active and have early thinking/memory concerns. It may help maintain or improve thinking abilities over time, with medical supervision throughout the study.
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.
