Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Global Statistical Test (GST) Score at BaselineBaseline

The Global Statistical Test (GST) score is a composite of the change from baseline (CFB) z-scores to Week 26 in the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale - Cognitive Subscale, 13-Item Version (ADAS-Cog13; range 0-85; higher scores indicate greater impairment) and Event Related Potential P300 Latency (ERP P300; longer latency (milliseconds) indicates greater impairment). This composite approach was used to assess overall change in disease status and treatment effects of ATH-1017.

The GST score was defined as a single outcome variable based on standardizing and combining individual patient-level z-score of change from baseline cognition (ADAS-Cog13) and ERP P300 latency scores. The between-group difference was calculated by subtracting the mean GST score for placebo from the mean GST score for ATH-1017. A negative value based on GST scores (ATH-1017 minus placebo) indicates a favorable response to ATH-1017, while a positive value favors placebo.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Event-related Potential (ERP) P300 Latency at BaselineBaseline

ERP P300 was a method of recording brain activity elicited by external stimuli, for example (e.g.), an oddball auditory stimulus, particularly of working memory access. The participant had to perform a task related to auditory stimuli in order to assess the P300 component (latency). The stimulus consisted of an oddball paradigm with 2 sound stimuli. Stimuli were presented through headphones and auditory stimulation for P300 was assessed in a recording lasting up to 10 minutes. It was calculated as the average across the pre-dose values at Baseline visit.

Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale (ADAS-Cog13) at BaselineBaseline

The Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale - Cognitive Subscale, 13-Item Version (ADAS-Cog13) is designed to measure cognitive symptom change. The test comprises 9 performance items and 4 clinician-rated items (total score ranging from 0 to 85). Higher scores indicate more severe cognitive impairment.
