Brain imaging, thinking, and medication study for Lewy body dementia
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how brain changes affect attention and thinking in people with Lewy body dementia. It includes brain scans, an EEG, and a medication option to see if it helps with symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You can speak and read English well enough to do thinking tests.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a noninvasive magnetic brain stimulation (rTMS) treatment for people with dementia with Lewy bodies. The treatment aims to help improve thinking and memory. It involves 1–2 weeks of daily sessions, and you'll have memory tests and brain scans during the study.
This trial tests whether ambroxol (a mouth medicine) can help people with new or early dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) or mild cognitive impairment linked to DLB. Participants take the medicine for about 18 months while the study tracks safety and changes over time.
This study tests if red-light therapy on the head can improve symptoms and daily life for people with dementia with Lewy bodies. It also looks at how the therapy affects brain activity.
This study uses brain “optical” and possibly MRI scans to understand how thinking and memory work in people with Lewy body dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, or mild memory problems. It may help researchers find better ways to measure brain changes and cognition over time.
This study tests digital health tools (like sensors or apps) to track symptoms of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) or dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) at home. It may help researchers understand how these conditions progress and improve care.
This study looks at how brain function changes over time in people with Lewy body disease or Alzheimer's. Researchers will use memory tests, MRI scans, and EEG (a painless brain-wave recording) to track these changes, and you will need a family member or friend to help report on your daily life.
