Primary | Effect of Memormax on global cognitive performance across the entire population (ACE-R) | To evaluate the effect of Memormax on global cognitive performance across the entire population studied in a 6-month open-label extension phase (T6-T12), measured by the ACE-R | Day 181-360 | |
Secondary | variations of the main parameters of cognitive performance (MMSE) | Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) or Folstein test is a 30-point questionnaire that is used extensively in clinical and research settings to measure cognitive impairment. The MMSE test includes simple questions that are valuated using point subscales that are summed to have a maximunm of 30 points; the administration of the test takes between 5 and 10 minutes and cognitive functions of each patient are examinated as reported below; Orientation to time (0-5 points), Orientation to place (0-5 points), Registration (0-3 points), Attention and calculation (0-5 points), Recall (0-3 points), Language and Praxis (0-9 points). If the score is greater than or equal to 24, patient has a normal cognition. Below 24 points, we can indicate a severe cognitive impairment (=9 points), a moderate cognitive impairment (10-18 points) and a mild cognitive impairment (19-23 points). For these reasons, higher values represent a better outcome |

Secondary | variations of the main parameters of cognitive performance (Digit Span) | A digit-span task is used to measure working memory's number storage capacity. Participants see or hear a sequence of numerical digits and are tasked to recall the sequence correctly, with increasingly longer sequences being tested in each trial. The participant's span is the longest number of sequential digits that can accurately be remembered.measured with further tests that explore multiple cognitive functions compared to evaluations as primary objectives. | Day 0-180-360 | |
Secondary | variations of the main parameters of cognitive performance (Trail Making) | The Trail Making Test is a neuropsychological test of visual attention and task switching. It consists of two parts in which the subject is instructed to connect a set of 25 dots as quickly as possible while still maintaining accuracy.The test can provide information about visual search speed, scanning, speed of processing, mental flexibility, as well as executive functioning. | Day 0-180-360 | |
