Clinical Trial Summary

In clinical trials of preclinical pharmacodynamic studies, Flos Gossypii Flavonoids Tablet has been proved to significantly improve the learning and memory ability of Alzheimer's disease model. Phase I clinical tolerance test is to observe the human body's tolerance to Flos Gossypii Flavonoids Tablet, and provide a basis for the formulation of safe and reasonable dosing regimens for phase II clinical trials. Therefore, a Phase II clinical trial is now being conducted to explore the efficacy and safety of the Flos Gossypii Flavonoids Tablet in the treatment of mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (marinus sea deficiency/brain collateral stasis syndrome). In this study, the researchers will use a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel method to recruit AD patients to confirm the efficacy and safety of Flos Gossypii Flavonoids Tablet. Confirmation of drug efficacy will be observed through changes in AD patients' general cognitive and different cognitive domain functions, daily living activities, and symptom severities.


Description:

Cotton flower is a Xinjiang Uygur ethnic medicine, and its main active ingredients are flavonoids. Studies have proved that flavonoids have strong characteristics of antioxidant stress and anti-inflammatory response. Preclinical pharmacodynamic studies on rats showed that the Flos Gossypii Flavonoids Tablet could significantly improve the learning and memory ability of AD model caused by different factors, and the mechanism may be related to its inhibition of oxidative stress and inflammatory response. A total of 57 subjects were enrolled in the Phase I tolerance clinical study. The results showed that the experimental drug may temporarily increase the three indexes of glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase, which can self-recovery in a short time. Combined with the safety evaluation results of phase I clinical trial, Flos Gossypii Flavonoids Tablet is a drug with high safety.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive section(ADAS-cog/11) Differences between the low-dose and high-dose groups in changes in ADAS cog/11 scores (relative to baseline) at weeks 13 and 26 were compared with the placebo group.
The ADAS-cog assesses cognitive function in seven components: word recall, instruction, structural practice, naming, conceptual practice, orientation, and word recognition. The total score ranges from 0 to 70, with lower scores representing milder disease.
Change from baseline in ADAS-cog scores at Week 26
Secondary Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) Differences between the low-dose and high-dose groups in changes in MMSE scores (relative to baseline) at weeks 13 and 26 were compared with the placebo group.
The MMSE scale can reflect the mental state and the degree of cognitive impairment of the subjects, with a total score of 30 points. The higher the score, the better the subject's condition.
Change from baseline in MMSE scores at Week 26
Secondary Alzheimer's Disease Co-operative Study Activities of Daily Living (ADCS-ADL) Differences between the low-dose and high-dose groups in changes in ADCS-ADL scores (relative to baseline) at weeks 13 and 26 were compared with the placebo group.
The ADCS-ADL scale can reflect the degree of impairment of the subjects' daily life ability, with a total score of 78 points. The higher the score, the better the subjects' living ability.
Change from baseline in ADCS-ADL scores at Week 26
Secondary Clinician Interview Based Impression of Severity (CIBIC-plus) Differences between the low-dose and high-dose groups in changes in CIBIC-plus scores (relative to baseline) at weeks 13 and 26 were compared with the placebo group.
The CIBIC-plus scale is based on interviews with patients and their caregivers by research physicians to ask, record and assess changes in patients' conditions. Outcomes assessed were: Caregiver Meeting-Clinical Impression Change, Subject Meeting-Clinical Impression Change, and Overall Clinical Impression Change.
Change from baseline in CIBIC-plus scores at Week 26
Secondary Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) Differences in changes in 12-item behavioral domain scores (relative to baseline) on the NPI scale at weeks 13 and 26 between the low-dose and high-dose groups compared with placebo.
The NPI scale is an interview conducted by the research doctor based on the patient's caregiver to ask the patient's mental and emotional changes. The questions included 12 items including delusions, hallucinations, depression, and anxiety, each of which identified the severity, frequency, and psychological stress of the caregiver.
Change from baseline the scores of 12 behavioral domains in NPI at Week 26.
Secondary Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) Differences in changes in caregiver stress scores (relative to baseline) on the NPI scale at weeks 13 and 26 between the low-dose and high-dose groups compared with placebo. Change from baseline in Caregiver Stress Score on the NPI Scale at Week 26
Secondary Dementia syndrome classification scale (SDSD) Differences between the low-dose and high-dose groups in changes in SDSD scores (relative to baseline) at week 26 were compared with the placebo group.
This project selects the type of medullary sea insufficiency and the type of brain collateral stasis from the SDSD scale for evaluation. The maximum score for the assessment is 30 points. If the total score is less than 7 points, the syndrome is not established, and if the total score is = 7 points, the syndrome is established.
Change from baseline in SDSD scores at Week 26
