MeasureTime frameDescription
Stage 1 and Stage 2: Change From Baseline in the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) Agitation/Aggression Domain Score to Week 6 and Week 12Stage 1: Baseline, Week 6; Stage 2: Baseline (Week 6), Week 12The NPI is a retrospective interview covering 12 neuropsychiatric symptom domains and is used to evaluate psychopathology, neuropsychiatric manifestations, and caregiver distress. The Agitation/Aggression domain is designed to collect information on the behavioral aspects of agitation/aggression in participants with probable Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and clinically meaningful agitation secondary to AD. Each NPI domain is rated by the caregiver for symptom frequency and severity. Symptom frequency is rated as: 1, occasionally; 2, often; 3, frequently; 4, very frequently. Symptom severity is rated as: 1, mild; 2, moderate; 3, severe. The total domain score is calculated as the frequency score multiplied by the severity score and thus ranges from 1 to 12. Higher scores indicate worsening symptoms. Change from Baseline was calculated as the post-Baseline score minus the Baseline score.
Stage 1 and Stage 2: Change From Baseline in the NPI Caregiver Distress Score to Week 6 and Week 12Stage 1: Baseline, Week 6; Stage 2: Baseline (Week 6), Week 12The NPI is a retrospective interview covering 12 neuropsychiatric symptom domains and is used to evaluate caregiver distress. Each NPI domain is rated by the caregiver for symptom frequency and severity. Symptom frequency is rated as: 1, occasionally; 2, often; 3, frequently; 4, very frequently. Symptom severity is rated as: 1, mild; 2, moderate; 3, marked severe. The total caregiver distress score is calculated as the frequency score multiplied by the severity score and thus ranges from 1 to 12. Higher scores indicate worsening symptoms. Change from Baseline was calculated as the post-Baseline score minus the Baseline score.
Stage 1 and Stage 2: Change From Baseline in the NPI Aberrant Motor Behavior Domain Score to Week 6 and Week 12Stage 1: Baseline, Week 6; Stage 2: Baseline (Week 6), Week 12The NPI is a retrospective interview covering 12 neuropsychiatric symptom domains and is used to evaluate aberrant motor behavior. Each NPI domain is rated by the caregiver for symptom frequency and severity. Symptom frequency is rated as: 1, occasionally; 2, often; 3, frequently; 4, very frequently. Symptom severity is rated as: 1, mild; 2, moderate; 3, severe. The total domain score is calculated as the frequency score multiplied by the severity score and thus ranges from 1 to 12. Higher scores indicate worsening of the symptoms. Change from Baseline was calculated as the post-Baseline score minus the Baseline score.
Stage 1 and Stage 2: Change From Baseline in the Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI) Score to Week 6 and Week 12Stage 1: Baseline, Week 6; Stage 2: Baseline (Week 6), Week 12The ZBI is a 22-item scale used to assess the impact of a participant with dementia and also other illnesses on the caregiver's burden. For each item of the scale, the caregiver indicates how often they feel the burden (never, rarely, sometimes, quite frequently, or nearly always). The score ranges from 0 to 88 and is determined by adding the numbered responses of the individual items. Higher scores indicate greater caregiver distress. Change from Baseline was calculated as the post-Baseline score minus the Baseline score. Treatment effects were estimated at each stage by ANCOVA with fixed effects for treatment, Baseline, and in the Stage 1 model, Baseline NPI AA (≤ 6 versus \> 6), risk assessments for falls (normal/mild versus moderate/severe), Baseline concomitant use of antipsychotic medications (yes versus no). Missing values were imputed by LOCF within each stage.
Stage 1 and Stage 2: Change From Baseline in the NPI Irritability/Lability Domain Score to Week 6 and Week 12Stage 1: Baseline, Week 6; Stage 2: Baseline (Week 6), Week 12The NPI is a retrospective interview covering 12 neuropsychiatric symptom domains, including the irritability/lability domain score. Each NPI domain is rated by the caregiver for symptom frequency and severity. Symptom frequency is rated as: 1, occasionally; 2, often; 3, frequently; 4, very frequently. Symptom severity is rated as: 1, mild; 2, moderate; 3, severe. The total domain score is calculated as the frequency score multiplied by the severity score and thus ranges from 1 to 12. Higher scores indicate worsening of the symptoms. Change from Baseline was calculated as the post-Baseline score minus the Baseline score.
Stage 1 and Stage 2: Change From Baseline in the NPI Total Score to Week 6 and Week 12Stage 1: Baseline, Week 6; Stage 2: Baseline (Week 6), Week 12NPI evaluates both frequency and severity of 12 neuropsychiatric disturbances including delusions, hallucinations, agitation/aggression, depression/dysphoria, anxiety, elation/euphoria, apathy/indifference, disinhibition, irritability/lability, motor disturbance, nighttime behaviors, as well as appetite/eating. Total domain score= frequency x severity and thus ranges from 1 to 12. NPI domain is rated by caregiver for symptom frequency and severity. Frequency is rated as: 1=occasionally, 2=often, 3= frequently, and 4=very frequently. Severity is rated as: 1=mild; 2= moderate, and 3=severe. Frequency and severity rating scales has defined anchor points to enhance reliability of caregiver responses. Caregiver distress is rated for each positive neuropsychiatric symptom using following anchored scores. It is rated as 0=not at all, 1=minimal, 3=moderate, 4=severe, 5=very severe. Total score is calculated by adding the individual Item scores, to yield a possible total scores of 0 to 144.
Stage 1 and Stage 2: Change From Baseline in the Clinical Global Impression of Severity of Illness (CGIS)-Agitation Domain Score to Week 6 and Week 12Stage 1: Baseline, Week 6; Stage 2: Baseline (Week 6), Week 12The CGIS-Agitation is an observer-rated scale that measures illness severity. CGIS is used to assess the severity of agitation. The CGIS score is rated on a 7-point scale (1 = normal, not at all ill; 7 = among the most extremely ill participants). Change from Baseline was calculated as the post-Baseline score minus the Baseline score. Treatment effects were estimated at each stage by ANCOVA with fixed effects for treatment, Baseline, and in the Stage 1 model, Baseline NPI AA (≤ 6 versus \> 6), risk assessments for falls (normal/mild versus moderate/severe), Baseline concomitant use of antipsychotic medications (yes versus no). Missing values were imputed by LOCF within each stage.
Stage 1 and Stage 2: Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study-Clinical Global Impression of Change (ADCS-CGIC) Rating at Week 6 and Week 12Stage 1: Baseline, Week 6; Stage 2: Baseline (Week 6), Week 12The ADCS-CGIC rating scale provides a reliable means to assess change from a Baseline level of global function within the time frame of the trial. ADCS-CGIC-Overall focuses on the clinician's observations of change in the participant's cognitive, functional, and behavioral performance. The ADCS-CGIC-Overall responses (1-7) are rated as: 1 = marked improvement, 2 = moderate improvement, 3 = minimal improvement, 4 = no change, 5 = minimal worsening, 6 = moderate worsening, or 7 = marked worsening. Treatment effects were estimated at each stage by ANCOVA with fixed effects for treatment, Baseline CMAI Total score, and in the Stage 1 model, Baseline NPI AA (≤ 6 versus \> 6), risk assessments for falls (normal/mild versus moderate/severe), Baseline concomitant use of antipsychotic medications (yes versus no). Missing values were imputed by LOCF within each stage.
Stage 1 and Stage 2: Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) Score at Week 6 and Week 12Stage 1: Baseline, Week 6; Stage 2: Baseline (Week 6), Week 12The PGIC is a 7-point (1-7) scale used to assess treatment response: 1 = very much improved, = much improved, 3 = minimally improved, 4 = no change, 5 = minimally worse, 6 = much worse, or 7 = very much worse. Treatment effects were estimated at each stage by ANCOVA with fixed effects for treatment, Baseline CMAI Total score, and in the Stage 1 model, Baseline NPI AA (≤ 6 versus \> 6), risk assessments for falls (normal/mild versus moderate/severe), Baseline concomitant use of antipsychotic medications (yes vs no). Missing values were imputed by LOCF within each stage.
Least Squares Mean Modified Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study-Clinical Global Impression of Change (mADCS-CGIC)-Agitation Score at Week 6 and Week 12Stage 1 Week 6; Stage 2 Week 12The intent of the ADCS version of the CGIC is to provide a means to reliably assess the global impression of change from Baseline in a clinical trial. The mADCS-CGIC is a modification of the ADCS-CGIC instrument that focuses specifically on agitation. The participants are asked to rate their impression of change from Baseline as: 1, marked improvement; 2, moderate improvement; 3, minimal improvement; 4, no change; 5, minimal worsening; 6, moderate worsening; 7, marked worsening. Baseline was defined as the last non-missing assessment prior to Stage 1 randomization. Treatment effects were estimated at each stage by analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with fixed effects for treatment, Baseline CMAI Total score, and in the Stage 1 model, Baseline NPI AA (≤ 6 versus \[vs\] \> 6), risk assessments for falls (normal/mild vs moderate/severe), Baseline concomitant use of antipsychotic medications (yes vs no). Missing values were imputed by last observation carried forward (LOCF) within each stage.
Stage 1 and Stage 2: Change From Baseline in the Cornell Scale for Depression in Dementia (CSDD) Score to Week 6 and Week 12Stage 1: Baseline, Week 6; Stage 2: Baseline (Week 6), Week 12The CSDD scale is used to assess signs/symptoms of major depression in participants with dementia. CSDD has 19 items, and each item is rated for severity on the following scale of 0 to 2 (0 =absent, 1= mild/intermittent 2=severe). CSDD score is calculated by summing non-missing scores from each item score. The scale ranges from 0-no depression to 38 maximum depressions. Scores above 10 indicate a probable major depression, above 18 indicate a definite major depression, and below 6 as a rule are associated with the absence of significant depressive symptoms. Higher score indicated maximum depression.
Stage 2: Percentage of Participants With General Medical Health Rating (GMHR) ScoreBaseline; Week 12The GMHR is a global clinical rating for medical health, designed to quantify in a single number (1 to 4) the severity of general comorbidity in a participant with dementia. The ratings are: 1 = poor; 2 = fair; 3 = good; 4 = excellent to very good. Data was collected for the treatment arm groups as pre-specified in the protocol for this outcome measure.
Stage 1 and Stage 2: Change From Baseline in the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale (ADAS-Cog) Score to Week 6 and Week 12Stage 1: Baseline, Week 6; Stage 2: Baseline (Week 6), Week 12The ADAS is designed to evaluate the cognitive and non-cognitive behavioral dysfunction characteristics of participants with AD. The cognitive subscale (ADAS-cog) consists of 11 subsets related to memory, praxis, and language. ADAS-cog scores range from 0 to 70. Higher scores indicate greater cognitive impairment. The ADAS-cog is assessed for participants with an Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of ≥10 at the Baseline Visit. Change from Baseline was calculated as the post-Baseline score minus the Baseline score. Treatment effects were estimated at each stage by ANCOVA with fixed effects for treatment, Baseline, and in the Stage 1 model, Baseline NPI AA (≤ 6 versus \> 6), risk assessments for falls (normal/mild versus moderate/severe), Baseline concomitant use of antipsychotic medications (yes vs no). Missing values were imputed by LOCF within each stage.

Outcome results

Primary

Stage 1 and Stage 2: Change From Baseline in the Cohen-Mansfield Agitation Inventory (CMAI) Composite Score to Week 6 and Week 12

The CMAI score is used to assess the frequency of manifestations of agitated behaviors in participants. The CMAI consists of 29 agitated behaviors that are rated on a 7-point scale of frequency: 1, never; 2, less than once a week; 3, once or twice a week; 4, several times a week; 5, once or twice a day; 6, several times a day; 7, several times an hour. The CMAI total score ranges from 29 to 203. Higher scores indicate worsening of the condition. Change from Baseline was calculated as the post-Baseline score minus the Baseline score.

Time frame: Stage 1: Baseline, Week 6; Stage 2: Baseline (Week 6), Week 12

Population: Stage 1 Modified Intent-to-Treat (mITT) Population: all participants randomized in Stage 1 who had at least 1 post-Baseline efficacy assessment. Stage 2 mITT Population: all participants randomized in Stage 2 who had at least 1 efficacy assessment in Stage 2. Data were reported for only those participants contributing data to the analysis.

Least Squares Mean Modified Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study-Clinical Global Impression of Change (mADCS-CGIC)-Agitation Score at Week 6 and Week 12

The intent of the ADCS version of the CGIC is to provide a means to reliably assess the global impression of change from Baseline in a clinical trial. The mADCS-CGIC is a modification of the ADCS-CGIC instrument that focuses specifically on agitation. The participants are asked to rate their impression of change from Baseline as: 1, marked improvement; 2, moderate improvement; 3, minimal improvement; 4, no change; 5, minimal worsening; 6, moderate worsening; 7, marked worsening. Baseline was defined as the last non-missing assessment prior to Stage 1 randomization. Treatment effects were estimated at each stage by analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with fixed effects for treatment, Baseline CMAI Total score, and in the Stage 1 model, Baseline NPI AA (≤ 6 versus \[vs\] \> 6), risk assessments for falls (normal/mild vs moderate/severe), Baseline concomitant use of antipsychotic medications (yes vs no). Missing values were imputed by last observation carried forward (LOCF) within each stage.

Stage 1 and Stage 2: Change From Baseline in the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale (ADAS-Cog) Score to Week 6 and Week 12

The ADAS is designed to evaluate the cognitive and non-cognitive behavioral dysfunction characteristics of participants with AD. The cognitive subscale (ADAS-cog) consists of 11 subsets related to memory, praxis, and language. ADAS-cog scores range from 0 to 70. Higher scores indicate greater cognitive impairment. The ADAS-cog is assessed for participants with an Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of ≥10 at the Baseline Visit. Change from Baseline was calculated as the post-Baseline score minus the Baseline score. Treatment effects were estimated at each stage by ANCOVA with fixed effects for treatment, Baseline, and in the Stage 1 model, Baseline NPI AA (≤ 6 versus \> 6), risk assessments for falls (normal/mild versus moderate/severe), Baseline concomitant use of antipsychotic medications (yes vs no).

Stage 1 and Stage 2: Change From Baseline in the Cornell Scale for Depression in Dementia (CSDD) Score to Week 6 and Week 12

The CSDD scale is used to assess signs/symptoms of major depression in participants with dementia. CSDD has 19 items, and each item is rated for severity on the following scale of 0 to 2 (0 =absent, 1= mild/intermittent 2=severe). CSDD score is calculated by summing non-missing scores from each item score. The scale ranges from 0-no depression to 38 maximum depressions. Scores above 10 indicate a probable major depression, above 18 indicate a definite major depression, and below 6 as a rule are associated with the absence of significant depressive symptoms. Higher score indicated maximum depression.

There are 2 versions of the DEMQOL: a 28-item version (rated by the participant); and a 31-item version (DEMQOL-proxy, rated by the caregiver). Both versions are recommended for evaluating participants (and their caregivers) with mild to moderate dementia. The DEMQOL total score ranges from 28 to 112. The DEMQOL-proxy is used for participants with severe dementia; the total score ranges from 31 to 124. For both versions, higher scores indicate greater QOL. Change from Baseline was calculated as the post-Baseline score minus the Baseline score. Treatment effects were estimated at each stage by ANCOVA with fixed effects for treatment, Baseline, and in the Stage 1 model, Baseline NPI AA (≤ 6 vs \> 6), risk assessments for falls (normal/mild vs moderate/severe), Baseline concomitant use of antipsychotic medications (yes vs no).

Stage 1 and Stage 2: Change From Baseline in the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) Agitation/Aggression Domain Score to Week 6 and Week 12

The NPI is a retrospective interview covering 12 neuropsychiatric symptom domains and is used to evaluate psychopathology, neuropsychiatric manifestations, and caregiver distress. The Agitation/Aggression domain is designed to collect information on the behavioral aspects of agitation/aggression in participants with probable Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and clinically meaningful agitation secondary to AD. Each NPI domain is rated by the caregiver for symptom frequency and severity. Symptom frequency is rated as: 1, occasionally; 2, often; 3, frequently; 4, very frequently. Symptom severity is rated as: 1, mild; 2, moderate; 3, severe. The total domain score is calculated as the frequency score multiplied by the severity score and thus ranges from 1 to 12. Higher scores indicate worsening symptoms. Change from Baseline was calculated as the post-Baseline score minus the Baseline score.

Stage 1 and Stage 2: Change From Baseline in the NPI Total Score to Week 6 and Week 12

NPI evaluates both frequency and severity of 12 neuropsychiatric disturbances including delusions, hallucinations, agitation/aggression, depression/dysphoria, anxiety, elation/euphoria, apathy/indifference, disinhibition, irritability/lability, motor disturbance, nighttime behaviors, as well as appetite/eating. Total domain score= frequency x severity and thus ranges from 1 to 12. NPI domain is rated by caregiver for symptom frequency and severity. Frequency is rated as: 1=occasionally, 2=often, 3= frequently, and 4=very frequently. Severity is rated as: 1=mild; 2= moderate, and 3=severe. Frequency and severity rating scales has defined anchor points to enhance reliability of caregiver responses. Caregiver distress is rated for each positive neuropsychiatric symptom using following anchored scores. It is rated as 0=not at all, 1=minimal, 3=moderate, 4=severe, 5=very severe. Total score is calculated by adding the individual Item scores, to yield a possible total scores of 0 to 144.

Stage 1 and Stage 2: Change From Baseline in the Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI) Score to Week 6 and Week 12

The ZBI is a 22-item scale used to assess the impact of a participant with dementia and also other illnesses on the caregiver's burden. For each item of the scale, the caregiver indicates how often they feel the burden (never, rarely, sometimes, quite frequently, or nearly always). The score ranges from 0 to 88 and is determined by adding the numbered responses of the individual items. Higher scores indicate greater caregiver distress. Change from Baseline was calculated as the post-Baseline score minus the Baseline score. Treatment effects were estimated at each stage by ANCOVA with fixed effects for treatment, Baseline, and in the Stage 1 model, Baseline NPI AA (≤ 6 versus \> 6), risk assessments for falls (normal/mild versus moderate/severe), Baseline concomitant use of antipsychotic medications (yes versus no). Missing values were imputed by LOCF within each stage.
