Summary

This trial is testing whether a new drug, AL002, is effective and safe in people with early Alzheimer's disease.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people with early Alzheimer's Disease who score at least 22 on the MMSE, have a CDR Global Score of 0.5 - 1.0, and an RBANS DMI score ≤85. They must have evidence of brain amyloidosis and a study partner available for support. Excluded are those with severe allergies to certain proteins, uncontrolled health conditions like hypertension or diabetes, significant non-AD brain diseases, pregnant or breastfeeding women, and users of anticoagulants.
What is being tested?
The trial tests AL002 against a placebo in participants with early Alzheimer's Disease to see if it's effective and safe. Participants will be randomly assigned to either receive AL002 or a placebo without knowing which one they're getting (double-blind).
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects for AL002 aren't listed here, common risks may include allergic reactions due to its antibody nature; potential side effects often seen in similar treatments could range from mild injection site reactions to more serious immune-related responses.
