Brief summary

This study seeks to evaluate the effect of intepirdine (RVT-101) on gait and balance in patients with Alzheimer's Disease, Dementia with Lewy Bodies or Parkinson's Disease Dementia.

Detailed description

To assess the effect of intepirdine (RVT-101) versus placebo on quantitative and qualitative gait and balance parameters. Each subject will be randomized 1:1 to one of the following sequences: Sequence 1: AB = RVT-101 35 mg during the early treatment period and Placebo during the late treatment period Sequence 2: BA = Placebo during the early treatment period and RVT-101 35 mg during the late treatment period Treatment A = RVT-101 35 mg once daily. Treatment B = Placebo once daily.

Interventions

RVT-101 once daily, oral, 35-mg tablets

DRUGPlacebo

Placebo once daily, oral

Inclusion criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria: Male or female subject with a clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), or Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD). Mini Mental State Examination score 14 to 26 Gait impairment, as assessed by history gathered by the clinical investigator and quantitative measurements Subjects must be on stable background acetylcholinesterase inhibitor therapy Key

Exclusion criteria

History and/or evidence of any other CNS disorder that could be interpreted as a cause of dementia (in the opinion of the investigator) Any clinically relevant concomitant disease which, in the opinion of the investigator, makes the subject unsuitable for inclusion in the study.

Participant flow

Pre-assignment details

68 participants signed consent and were screened for participation. Of these, 40 entered a 2-week single-blind placebo run-in period with treatment with placebo qd. Subjects were allowed to re-screen if they failed the initial screening assessments. All subjects deemed eligible following run-in were randomized to a treatment group.
