What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study tests a new app called RACS that helps primary care doctors screen older adults for early cognitive decline. The app includes risk questions, a symbol matching task, and voice tasks. Researchers will enroll 500 adults aged 60 and older to see if the tool is easy to use and accurate.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
RACS app (a behavioral tool with risk questions, symbol matching, and voice tasks)
What this could lead to
If successful, this app could make it easier for primary care doctors to spot early memory problems in older adults, leading to earlier care.
What could go wrong
This is a mid-stage study testing feasibility and accuracy, not a treatment. The app may not work well in all clinics or for all patients.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 500 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Feb 2024

Expected to finish

Apr 2027

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

60 years and older

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Aged 60 years and older; * Ethnic/racial background consistent with NIH policy * Male or female * Fluent in English. Exclusion Criteria: * Confounding conditions that could impact ability to participate in the study (e.g., cognitive impairment sufficient to impact ability to follow instructions on the iPad, motor impairment that would prohibit independent use of RACS, poor visual acuity) * Prior diagnosis of dementia * Non-English speaking.
