Adaptive walking and fitness program for mild memory decline
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild Alzheimer’s dementia
- You live in the community (at home or assisted living), and you are age 65 or older
- Your primary care doctor or heart doctor clears you to exercise
- You have a study partner who agrees to check in at least twice a week for 6 months
- You agree to blood draws and to MRI safety screening (you must be MRI-safe)
Quick eligibility check
Answer a few plain-language questions, based on this study's own requirements, to get a preliminary sense of fit.

This study tests whether a mix of physical exercise and computer brain training can improve working memory in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It may help by strengthening memory skills and supporting brain health through supervised activity and computer-based practice.
This trial tests if a supervised exercise program can improve thinking skills and daily function in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It may help slow memory decline and keep you independent longer.
This six-week exercise program helps older adults with mild memory or thinking problems and trouble walking stay independent and safe at home. You will work with a trainer and wear an activity tracker to track your progress.
This study tests whether regular physical exercise can improve memory and thinking skills in people 65 and older who have mild cognitive impairment. Researchers want to see if staying active helps protect brain function.
This study looks at how older adults with mild cognitive impairment or Alzheimer's disease adapt their walking. It aims to understand walking and balance to help people stay mobile and safe longer.
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.
