Could a simple home sensor reveal how a Vitamin-Like supplement affects Alzheimer's?
NCT ID NCT05245903
First seen Nov 06, 2025 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 31 times
Summary
This study tests whether a radio-wave sensor placed in the home can measure sleep, movement, and walking speed in 40 people with mild cognitive impairment or mild Alzheimer's who are taking nicotinamide riboside (a form of vitamin B3). The goal is to find digital biomarkers that reflect changes in brain energy metabolism. The study does not test whether the supplement improves symptoms, but rather how well the sensor can track potential effects.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
nicotinamide riboside
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help identify digital biomarkers that track brain energy changes, potentially guiding future treatments for cognitive decline.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study focused on measuring outcomes, not testing effectiveness. The sensor technology may not reliably capture meaningful changes.
