The present project is an intervention proof of concept study to test the efficacy of neflamapimod in a population of AD patients at an early stage. To track the impact of this drug in patients, the investigators will use an innovative radiotracer, \[18F\]DPA-714, as a promising ligand of microglial activation targeting the translocator protein (TSPO), specific of microglial activation. The use of \[18F\]DPA-714 will allow to monitor the evolution of neuroinflammation in patients as a function of treatment. The main objective will be to compare the level of inflammation using the \[18F\]DPA-714 in neflamapimod and placebo groups after 12 weeks of treatment. Blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) will also be collected to assess inflammation markers and brain structure respectively in these patients.
