NCT ID NCT06481878

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study is testing a new, non-invasive way to detect Alzheimer's disease by looking for specific proteins (amyloid and tau) in stool samples. The goal is to see if these proteins can serve as early warning signs, potentially allowing for earlier diagnosis and treatment. Researchers will compare stool samples from 115 people with and without Alzheimer's to validate this approach.
