Exercogs Study: Brain Training to Reduce Dementia Risk
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether Exercogs®—a computer-based brain training program—can help reduce your risk of memory problems and dementia. You'll do 60-minute sessions three times a week for 24 weeks if you have at least one treatable risk factor like high blood pressure, hearing loss, or physical inactivity.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 55 years old or older
- You have at least one modifiable dementia risk factor (e.g., untreated hearing loss, high blood pressure, being inactive, smoking, depression, diabetes, or social isolation)
- You can attend 60-minute sessions three times per week for 24 weeks (about 6 months)
- You do not have a diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease or dementia
- You do not have a severe neurological condition or unstable medical problem that would make participation unsafe
- You can understand and follow instructions, and read/hear clearly enough to safely use a computer program

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a structured lifestyle program (more activity and healthier eating) to help prevent or slow memory and thinking problems. It may be helpful if you’re older but not showing major memory impairment, and you can commit to weekly study activities for about 8 months.
This study checks whether a program called REMINDER can help reduce risk of developing dementia by improving risk factors over 12 weeks. It’s for older adults who have higher dementia risk but do not currently have dementia.
This trial tests whether a combined program of physical exercise and cognitive (thinking/memory) training can help seniors who are not demented yet but are at higher risk for Alzheimer’s. It may benefit people by improving thinking and slowing decline, but you must meet specific screening blood test and cognition criteria.
This study tests an online program designed to lower your risk of developing dementia. It provides education and support to help you make brain-healthy changes.
This trial tests a website program designed to help older adults keep their memory and thinking skills sharp. It is for people who may have mild memory concerns and at least one health risk like high blood pressure or diabetes, but who are otherwise healthy enough to use a computer.
This study tests whether a mix of aerobic exercise (like walking or other cardio) and cognitive training (memory/thinking practice) can help seniors who are at genetic risk for Alzheimer’s disease. You may be eligible if you have no clinical dementia but show specific brain/memory scores and meet genetic test results.
