Efficacy and Safety of MMFS in Early AD

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MMFS for improving cognition and global function in patients with probable Early Alzheimer's disease.

This is a phase 2 study in patients with probable Early Alzheimer's disease (AD). Early AD includes Stage 3 AD patients (MCI due to AD) and Stage 4 AD patients (mild AD). The study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, parallel group design, in which participants (up to 6 per arm; 12 total) will receive oral placebo or MMFS twice daily for 24 weeks. Randomized patients and their informants (required) will complete 3 assessments total: at baseline (prior to taking any study tablets), week 12, and week 24 visits. At each of the three visits, participants will complete cognitive and behavioral measures and clinical interviews, a blood sample will be collected for safety and biomarkers related to Alzheimer's disease, and the informant will complete an interview concerning the patient's cognition, mood, and function. A range of safety and tolerability assessments will also be performed (including vital signs, laboratory tests, and ECGs). Participants will be contacted by phone between clinical assessments for monitoring.
