Filter by:This is a follow-up study to assess safety and clinical activity of continued AFFITOPE® AD02 vaccinations in patients with Alzheimer's disease. Patients, who have already participated in AFF006 will be involved in 27 study sites in Europe. Duration of patient's participation in the clinical trial is 19 months.
This is a 26-week, randomized extension of the Phase 3 double-blind placebo-controlled studies, EVP-6124-024 and EVP-6124-025. In this extension study, subjects who complete study EVP-6124-024 or EVP-6124-025 and fulfill all entry criteria will be randomized to receive EVP-6124 for an additional 26 weeks.
GSK2647544 is an orally available, selective inhibitor of Lp PLA2 that is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. The current study is a single-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, 4-cohort study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of repeat doses of GSK2647544. Cohorts 1, 2 and 3 will evaluate escalating doses of GSK2647544 in young healthy volunteers for 7 days, 7 days, and 14 days, respectively. Cohort 4 will evaluate repeat doses of GSK2647544 in healthy elderly volunteers for 14 days. Additionally, Cohorts 1 and 3 will include an assessment of potential drug-drug interaction with simvastatin to examine CYP3A4 inhibition by GSK2647544.
The purpose of this study is to examine whether the rTMS (repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) could change cortical excitability measured by off-line EEG in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 2 fixed doses of EVP-6124 compared to placebo for 26 weeks in subjects with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease currently receiving stable treatment or previously treated with an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor.

This study consists of two parts, Part 1 and Part 2. Part 1 assesses the efficacy and safety of verubecestat (MK-8931) compared with placebo administered for 104 weeks in the treatment of amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) due to Alzheimer's Disease (AD), also known as prodromal AD. Participants are randomized to receive placebo, or 12 mg or 40 mg verubecestat, once daily. The primary study hypothesis for Part 1 is that ≥1 verubecestat dose is superior to placebo with respect to the change from baseline in the Clinical Dementia Rating scale-Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB) score at 104 weeks. Participants completing Part 1 may choose to participate in Part 2, which is a long term double-blind extension to assess efficacy and safety of verubecestat administered for up to an additional 260 weeks. In Part 2, all participants receive either 12 mg or 40 mg verubecestat, once daily.
The purpose of this study is to qualify the biomarker risk algorithm for prognosis of the risk of developing Mild Cognitive Impairment due to Alzheimer's Disease (MCI-AD), and also to evaluate the efficacy of pioglitazone compared with placebo to delay the onset of MCI-AD in cognitively-normal participants who are at high-risk for developing MCI within 5 years.
This is an open label, PET study in healthy male subjects to determine if GSK2647544 is able to cross the blood-brain-barrier. The study will use GSK2647544 radiolabelled with fluorine-18 ([18F] GSK2647544) to determine the ratio of the concentration of the compound in tissue to that in plasma at equilibrium, expressed as the PET volume of distribution (VT). The study will consist of at least four visits; 2 screening visits, scanning day and follow-up. On Day 1 (scanning day) the subject will receive a single oral dose of GSK2647544 (100 mg) followed approximately 2 hours later by a single intravenous (IV) infusion of [18F]-GSK2647544 and a dynamic PET scan. Arterial and venous blood sampling will be used to determine the plasma kinetics of [18F]-GSK2647544 and unlabeled GSK2647544. In addition, each subject will undergo a structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the brain to aid in the definition of neuroanatomy. The dose of GSK2647544 was selected based on the review of the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamic (PD) data obtained in the first time in human (FTIH) study.
To test the idea that solanezumab will slow the cognitive decline of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) as compared with placebo in participants with mild AD.
