Who may not be able to join

Each point below is a reason the trial team may not be able to accept someone. It is not a list of requirements to meet.

  • People who are currently taking part in, or have taken part in, an Alzheimer's treatment trial or intervention within the past 6 months — though people who were in a placebo or control group may still be considered.
  • Note: Standard dementia care and medications used to treat MCI or Alzheimer's disease, including monoclonal antibody therapies, are acceptable and do not exclude participation.
  • People with another significant brain or nervous system condition, such as Parkinson's disease, stroke, Huntington's disease, brain tumour, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy (seizure disorder), or similar conditions beyond Alzheimer's or MCI.
  • People with a history of alcohol or substance dependence in the past year.
  • People with a serious or unstable physical health condition that could affect memory or thinking (other than MCI or Alzheimer's), such as active cancer, HIV, untreated thyroid disease, heart failure, or kidney insufficiency.
  • People who currently have a diagnosis of diabetes.
  • People who are unable to read, are blind, or do not speak English.
  • People who are known to use antibiotics regularly on a scheduled basis (for example, before dental appointments).
  • People who are unable or unwilling to swallow capsules, including those with swallowing difficulties.
  • People who have an active gut infection at the time of joining the trial.

People who have stopped probiotic supplement use for at least 2 months may be considered for eligibility.

  • People who have received a solid organ transplant within the past 90 days, or who are currently being treated for organ rejection.
  • People with any other condition that could put their safety or rights at risk, make it unlikely they would complete the study, or affect the reliability of the study results.
  • People who have used systemic antibiotics (taken by mouth, injection, or drip) within the past 3 months — people who have been antibiotic-free for at least 3 months may be considered for eligibility.
  • People taking medications that stimulate or suppress the immune system.
