Overview
Brief Summary
This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 design aimed at further verifying the safety and efficacy of Wujia Yizhi granules for mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's dementia
Detailed Description
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 clinical trial targeting patients with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's dementia (TCM differentiated as syndrome of deficiency of spleen and kidney). 570 subjects were recruited and randomly assigned to the experimental and placebo groups at a ratio of 2:1.

If participants lack previous pathological evidence or biomarkers of Alzheimer's dementia, they must have evidence of β-amyloid deposition biomarkers during screening (PET with abnormal amyloid deposition or low cerebrospinal fluid Aβ 42 and Aβ 42/Aβ 40 ratio).
- •MMSE score 11 to 26;CDR-GS score 1 to 2 。
Exclusion Criteria
- •Participants with non AD induced memory and cognitive impairment, such as diagnosis of other types of dementia, including but not limited to mixed dementia (AD VaD), vascular dementia (VD), Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD), Lewy body dementia (DLB), Huntington's disease related dementia, frontotemporal lobe dementia (FTD), etc; Endocrine system disorders (such as thyroid diseases, parathyroid diseases) and dementia caused by folate, vitamin B12 deficiency, or any other reason; Existence of consciousness disorders, etc.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Change from baseline to endpoint in Alzheimer's dementia Assessment Scale-Cognitive subscore (ADAS-Cog12).
Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Month 12
The Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale - Cognitive Scale (ADAS-Cog12) is used to assess the cognitive function level of AD subjects. The ADAS-Cog12 score range is 0-75 points, and the higher the score on the scale, the more severe the cognitive impairment.
Change from baseline to endpoint in Clinical Dementia Rating-Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB).
Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Month 12
The Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale - Cognitive Scale (CDR-SB) is used to assess the cognitive function level of AD subjects. The CDR-SB score range is 0-3 points, and the higher the score on the scale, the more severe the cognitive impairment.
Secondary Outcomes
- Change from baseline to endpoint in ADAS-Cog12.(Change from Baseline to month 3, 6, and 9)
- Change from baseline to endpoint in CDR-SB.(Change from Baseline to month 3, 6, and 9)
- Change from baseline to endpoint in he Alzheimer's dementia Cooperative Study-Activities of Daily Living (ADCS-ADL) scale.(Change from Baseline to month 3, 6, 9 and 12)
- Change from baseline to endpoint in Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI).(Change from Baseline to month 3, 6, 9 and 12)
- Change from baseline to endpoint in Traditional Chinese Medicine Syndrome Score(Change from Baseline to month 3, 6, 9 and 12)
- Change from baseline to endpoint in Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE).(Change from Baseline to month 3, 6, 9 and 12)
