Can ginkgo biloba alter Alzheimer's blood signs?

NCT ID NCT07579689

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

Summary

This study tests whether a daily 240 mg dose of Ginkgo biloba extract can change certain blood markers linked to Alzheimer's disease in people with mild cognitive impairment. Over 6 months, 120 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either Ginkgo biloba or a placebo. The main goal is to see if the supplement affects levels of p-tau217 and other proteins in the blood, which may indicate changes in disease activity.
