NCT ID NCT07279714
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This pilot study is testing the safety of fisetin, a natural compound found in fruits and vegetables, in 5 older adults with mild Alzheimer's or mild cognitive impairment. Participants will take fisetin daily for a period, and researchers will monitor for side effects. The goal is to see if it is safe enough to study further for possible benefits.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
fisetin (a natural plant compound)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a safe supplement to ease symptoms or slow decline in early Alzheimer's.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study (only 5 people) focused on safety, not effectiveness. It is too early to know if fisetin helps Alzheimer's symptoms.
