Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To assess the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of AAB-001 in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease (AD). To evaluate the effect of AAB-001 on brain amyloid burden in patients with mild to moderate AD. ;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of AAB-001 in patients with mild to moderate AD.; Primary end point(s): The incidence and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs); Clinically important changes in safety assessment results (including, as appropriate, vital signs, weight, clinical laboratory tests, electrocardiograms [ECGs], MRIs, and physical and neurological exams); Change from screening brain amyloid burden at Weeks 24, 50, and 78 on PET using the amyloid binding agent, Pittsburgh Compound B (PIB). Change from screening in regional cerebral metabolic rates for glucose at Week 78 on PET using fluoro-deoxyglucose (FDG).
