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 This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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 whether a structured program of nutrition advice, physical exercise, brain games, social activities, and health monitoring can improve brain health in adults aged 60 and older who are at risk for memory problems. About 80 participants will either follow the full program with guidance or do a self-guided version. Researchers will measure changes in lifestyle habits and thinking skills over 6 months.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
multidomain lifestyle intervention (nutrition, exercise, cognitive training, social engagement, risk management)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that a structured lifestyle program in primary care helps older adults maintain brain health and reduce dementia risk.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 80 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The program requires significant effort, and adherence may vary.

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 80 people

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

Expected to start

Aug 2026

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Aug 2028

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

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.

Show the full entry requirements

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

Inclusion Criteria: Individuals aged 60 and older who express interest in the study will be pre-screened by the research team using the CAIDE (Cardiovascular Risk Factors, Aging, and Dementia) Risk Score. Those scoring ≥6-indicating elevated dementia risk-will be invited for an in-person screening visit to confirm eligibility. The CAIDE score (range: 4-15) is based on age, sex, education, systolic blood pressure, BMI, total cholesterol, and physical activity. Additional inclusion criteria are a Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of ≥24, and ability to walk independently indoors and outdoors (with or without a mobility aid). Exclusion Criteria: Exclusion criteria include diagnosed dementia and residence in a nursing home.
