Can Brain-Training apps fix sleep in MS?
NCT ID NCT07762326
First seen Aug 13, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether AI-based cognitive training, using the Lumosity app, combined with a tailored physical-therapy program can improve sleep and quality of life in people with multiple sclerosis. Participants aged 25-40 with mild to moderate disability will undergo the training, and researchers will measure changes in sleep quality, daytime sleepiness, and cognitive function. The goal is to see if this non-drug approach can ease sleep problems and enhance daily well-being.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- AI-based cognitive training (Lumosity) and a designed physical-therapy program
- What this could lead to
- If effective, this approach could offer a non-drug way to improve sleep and daily functioning for people with multiple sclerosis.
- What could go wrong
- The trial is small (40 participants) and early, so results may not apply broadly. Benefits may be modest, and cognitive training requires consistent effort.
