Summary

This trial is testing a drug called Xanamem as a potential treatment for early stages of Alzheimer's Disease and Major Depressive Disorder. Participants in the study will either receive 10mg of X

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men and women aged 50 or older with mild to moderate dementia due to Alzheimer's, who have specific biomarkers in their blood. They must have had a brain scan within the last year and show cognitive impairment on tests. Stable medication use for 3 months is required, as well as a partner to attend visits and report on the participant's condition.
What is being tested?
The study tests Xanamem at a dose of 10 mg daily against a placebo over 36 weeks to see if it's safe, tolerable, and effective for early-stage Alzheimer's Disease. Participants are randomly assigned to either treatment or placebo in equal numbers without knowing which they receive (double-blinded).
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects of Xanamem are not detailed here but typically could include gastrointestinal issues, headaches, dizziness, or other reactions common with medications affecting brain function.
