Alzheimer Disease Clinical Trials

135 studies are recruiting for alzheimer disease in the United States right now. Each one is listed on ClinicalTrials.gov, the public registry the research teams themselves file with. TrialBoost is not a doctor, a research site, or a study sponsor: the research team decides who takes part.

How to read this page. Every study here comes from ClinicalTrials.gov, the public registry that research teams are required to file with. We have summarised each one in plain language and shown where it is running. We have not changed what any study says it is doing.

What TrialBoost is. We help people find research that might suit them, and, if they ask us to, we pass their details to the research team running it. We are not a doctor, a research site, or a study sponsor, and we do not decide who takes part in anything. Joining costs nothing and you can change your mind at any point.

Paid placement. Some studies pay us when someone asks to be connected to them. Those are labelled Sponsored wherever they appear, and they only appear when they match what you were actually looking for.
