Dementia Clinical Trials

84 studies are recruiting for dementia 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.

  1. First-in-Human Evaluation of an Astrocytic Glutamate Transporter (EAAT2) PET Tracer in Dementia

    This is a first in human study that will assess the safety and diagnostic performance of [18F]RP-115 (fluorine-18 labeled RP115), a positron emission tomography (PET) agent. This agent has the potential to identify the early changes that occur in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD)…

  2. Delirium Identification in Older Patients With Alzheimer's and Other Related Dementias In the Emergency Department

    Delirium is highly prevalent and very bad for patients with dementia. Delirium is a dangerous medical condition that occurs in 6-38% of older Emergency Department patients and 70% of ICU patients. A person who develops delirium in the ED or hospital has a 12 times higher odds of being newly diagnos…

  4. Environmental and Sensory Intervention for Nursing Home Residents With Dementia Who Exhibit Persistent Vocalizations

    The purpose of this study is to test a person-centered, nature-based non-pharmacological intervention for nursing home residents living with dementia who exhibit persistent vocalizations. The Environmental And Sensory Experience (EASE) involves the projection of a still nature image and the playing…

  5. Alzheimer's Disease Treatment With Combination of 40Hz Light and Cognitive Therapy

    Electrical activity in the brain known as "gamma" brainwaves help connect and process information throughout the brain. These gamma waves are diminished in Alzheimer's disease. New research in Alzheimer's disease mouse models shows that exposure to light flickering at the rate of 40 flashes per sec…

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.
