Mild Cognitive Impairment
Conditions
Brief summary
Primary objective is to evaluate the neuroprotective effect of T-817MA on Tau protein phosphorylated at threonine 181 (p-tau 181) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) compared with placebo in patients with a diagnosis of MCI due to AD or mild AD. Secondary objectives are: 1. To evaluate in patients on T-817MA and placebo: * cognitive function measured by the Clinical Dementia Rating Scale Sum of Boxes (CDR-sb) and working memory and attention domain as measured by the Cognitive Functional Composite (CFC). * AD-related biomarkers in CSF and plasma * imaging analysis using volumetric magnetic resonance imaging (vMRI) * alpha/theta ratio of the electroencephalogram (EEG) 2. To evaluate the safety of T-817MA by clinical laboratory tests and adverse events (AEs). 3. To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of T-817MA
Interventions
224mg T-817MA orally once daily for first 4 weeks, and then 448mg T-817MA orally once daily for the following weeks.
Placebo once daily

Inclusion criteria
Key Inclusion Criteria: * Female of non-childbearing potential or male, ages 50 to 80 years (inclusive) * MCI due to AD or mild AD per NIA-AA diagnostic criteria (Jack et al., 2018), with MMSE 24 to 30 (inclusive) * CSF results at Screening consistent with the presence of Aß and p-tau181 abnormality (≤1000 pg/ml for Aß, ≥19 pg/ml for p-tau181). * Taking stable dose of AChE Inhibitor (donepezil, galantamine or rivastigmine) at least for 3 months prior to randomization, or not taking any AChE Inhibitors. Key
Exclusion criteria
* MRI of the brain within the previous 2 years that showed pathology that would be inconsistent with a diagnosis of AD * Taking memantine * Any contraindications to lumbar puncture * Any contraindications to MRI
