Study to Assess Adverse Events, Change in Disease Activity and How Oral ABBV-552 Capsules Moves Through the Body of Participants Aged 50 to 90 Years With Mild Alzheimer's Disease

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Alzheimer's Disease (AD)
Interventions
Drug: Placebo for ABBV-552
Registration Number
NCT05771428
Lead Sponsor
AbbVie
Brief Summary

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive, irreversible neurological disorder and is the most common cause of dementia in the elderly population. Clinical symptoms of the disease may begin with occasional forgetfulness such as misplacement of items, forgetting important dates or events, and may progress to noticeable memory loss, increased confusion and agitation, and eventually, loss of independence and non-responsiveness. This study will assess how safe and effective ABBV-552 is in treating symptoms of early AD. Adverse events, change in disease activity, how ABBV-552 moves through body of participants and the body response to ABBV-552 will be assessed.

ABBV-552 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Study doctors put the participants in 1 of 4 groups (3 active dose groups and a placebo group), called treatment arms. Each group receives a different treatment. There is a 1 in 4 chance that participants will be assigned to placebo. Approximately 240 participants aged 50-90 years with mild AD will be enrolled in approximately 60 sites across the world.

Participants will receive oral ABBV-552 or placebo capsules once daily for 12 weeks and followed for 30 days after the last dose of study drug.

There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale (ADAS-Cog 14) scoreFrom Baseline (Week 0) through Week 12

The ADAS-Cog was designed to assess the cognitive impairments most common in AD. The ADAS-Cog-14 includes the original 11 items from the ADAS-Cog-11 \[1. Spoken language ability, 2. Comprehension of spoken language, 3. Recall of test instructions, 4. Word-findings difficulty in spontaneous speech, 5. Following commands, 6. Naming objects and fingers, 7. Constructional praxis, 8. Ideational praxis, 9. Orientation, 10. Word-recall task, 11. Word-recognition task\] and includes 3 additional tasks \[12. Number cancellation task, 13. Delayed word recall task, 14. Executive functioning\], for increased sensitivity in mild cognitive impairment (MCI) patients. The Total Score of the ADAS-Cog-14 ranges from 0 to 90, with a higher score representing greater impairment.
