Alzheimer's clinical trials in Utah: what to expect

Alzheimer's trials now span the whole course of the disease. Prevention studies enroll people with normal memory who have early signs of amyloid in the brain; treatment studies enroll people with mild cognitive impairment or early Alzheimer's and test the next generation of antibodies, tau-targeting drugs and combinations; and symptom studies address agitation, sleep and depression in later stages. Alongside drugs there are trials of exercise, cognitive training, blood tests for diagnosis and support programs for care partners.

In Utah, recruiting alzheimer's studies are concentrated in Salt Lake City, Bountiful and Provo. 5 of the 7 are run by a drug or device company, which usually means a larger study with travel reimbursement; the rest are academic or hospital-led.

Who Alzheimer's trials usually look for

Most drug trials enroll ages 50 to 85 and define a stage with a memory test score range, then confirm Alzheimer's with an amyloid PET scan, a spinal fluid test or, increasingly, a blood test, all done by the study. Nearly every trial requires a study partner: someone who knows you well, attends visits and answers questions about daily life. Common exclusions are another cause of memory loss, a recent stroke and, for antibody trials, some blood thinners or MRI findings. Prevention trials enroll people with no symptoms at all.

What taking part involves

Screening is longer than for most conditions, often several visits over a few weeks with memory testing, an MRI and an amyloid test. Antibody trials then involve an infusion or injection every two to four weeks, regular safety MRIs and visits for eighteen months to four years, with an extension in which everyone receives the drug. Lifestyle trials involve classes or coaching for six to twenty-four months. All study care is free and travel is usually reimbursed for you and your partner.

Questions worth asking the study team

Whether you will be told your amyloid or genetic results; what the MRI safety monitoring involves; how much time the study partner must give; whether there is an extension after the placebo period; and what happens if memory worsens during the study.

A Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of KarXT + KarX-EC for the Treatment of Agitation Associated With Alzheimer's Disease
PHASE3 Chandler, Arizona +4 sites NCT07011745
This trial is looking for adults with agitation related to Alzheimer's Disease. Participants will receive a treatment and will be asked to have their caregiver attend visits and help with the study.
Recruiting
A Study to Evaluate the Long-term Efficacy and Safety of KarXT + KarX-EC for Agitation in Alzheimer's Disease (ADAGIO-3)
PHASE3 Chandler, Arizona +4 sites NCT06937229
This trial is looking for people with agitation related to Alzheimer's Disease who have completed earlier studies. Participants will take a combination of two specific medications to see how well they work over time and if they are safe.
Recruiting
A Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of KarXT + KarX-EC for the Treatment of Agitation Associated With Alzheimer's Disease (ADAGIO-1)
PHASE3 Scottsdale, Arizona +4 sites NCT07011732
This trial is looking for adults with Alzheimer's disease who experience agitation. Participants will take the study medication and have regular visits to assess their condition.
Recruiting
Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of BMS-986368, for the Treatment of Agitation in Participants With Alzheimer's Disease
PHASE2 Homewood, Alabama +4 sites NCT06808984
This trial is looking for people with Alzheimer's disease who experience agitation. Participants will take a medication called BMS-986368 and help researchers understand its effects.
Recruiting
A Study of Zunveyl on Safety, Tolerability, Neuropsychiatric Symptoms, and Caregiver Distress in Alzheimer's Disease (RESOLVE)
PHASE4 Irvine, California +4 sites NCT07633470
This trial is looking for adults aged 50 and older who have been diagnosed with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. Participants will take Zunveyl for 12 weeks and will be monitored for safety and side effects.
Recruiting
Financial Counseling for Dementia Family Caregivers in Early and Middle Adulthood
NA Salt Lake City, Utah NCT07681401
This trial is looking for family caregivers of individuals with dementia who need financial support. Participants will take part in a four-week program offering financial counseling and share their thoughts on the experience before and after the program.
Recruiting
Evaluating Novel Healthcare Approaches to Nurturing and Caring for Hospitalized Elders
NA Orange, California +4 sites NCT05929703
This trial is looking for older adults who are at least 70 years old and are expected to be in the hospital for at least three days. They should have some risks for confusion, like trouble thinking or seeing, and need to have a family member or caregiver who can be with them in the hospital. However, it won’t include anyone who is already confused when they arrive or can't communicate clearly.

Alzheimer's clinical trials in Utah: common questions

How many Alzheimer's clinical trials are recruiting in Utah?
TrialFinder currently lists 7 recruiting Alzheimer's clinical trials with study sites in Utah. Results are updated regularly from ClinicalTrials.gov, the official U.S. registry of clinical studies.
Where are Alzheimer's clinical trials located in Utah?
Study sites for the Alzheimer's trials listed on this page include Salt Lake City. Each trial page lists every participating site with contact details, so you can find the location closest to you.
Do I need insurance to join a Alzheimer's clinical trial in Utah?
No. Study-related care is covered by the trial sponsor at no cost to participants, including the study treatment, required lab tests and study visits. Many Alzheimer's trials in Utah also compensate participants for time and travel. Health insurance is not required to search or enroll.
How do I qualify for a Alzheimer's clinical trial in Utah?
Each study sets its own criteria based on age, Alzheimer's diagnosis details, prior treatments, current medications and general health. The fastest way to find out is to contact a research site directly — most will pre-screen you by phone in 10 to 15 minutes at no charge. You can also create a free TrialFinder profile to be matched automatically.
Do I need an Alzheimer's diagnosis to join a trial?
No. Prevention trials enroll people with normal memory and test them for early amyloid, and many treatment trials accept people with memory concerns who have not been formally diagnosed, then confirm the diagnosis as part of screening.
What is a study partner?
A family member or close friend who attends visits with you and answers questions about memory and daily activities. Nearly every Alzheimer's trial requires one, and their time is usually reimbursed too.
Will I learn my amyloid or APOE results?
Many trials now disclose amyloid status, since it decides eligibility, and explain what it means. Genetic results are disclosed in some trials and not others; ask before you consent.
