Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy and safety of cholinesterase inhibitor (donepezil hydrochloride) Aricept in patients with vascular dementia (VaD).


Clinical Trial Description

Vascular dementia is a significant cause of intellectual and functional impairment in young patients consequent to cerebrovascular disease. Post-mortem studies show that VaD patients have a cholinergic deficiency like in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Cholinesterase inhibitors are now standard treatment for mild to moderate AD. This study aims to determine if donepezil, a cholinesterase inhibitor, would benefit patients with VaD by decreasing their scores in the VaDAS-cog and improvement in their CIBIC rating over a period of 24-weeks treatment. Adverse events will also be monitored. ;
