NCT ID NCT07334392
First seen Jan 12, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether combining aerobic, strength, and balance exercises with cognitive training (dual-tasking) can improve gait, balance, and cognition in people with mild cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer's. Forty-five participants will be split into three groups: one doing the combined program, one doing exercise only, and a control group receiving only educational materials. The program lasts three months, with sessions twice a week.

Active substance

What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a non-drug way to help people with early Alzheimer's maintain their physical and mental function longer.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 45 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The improvements may be modest or not last long-term.
