简要总结
Rosiglitazone (RSG) has been tested in clinical studies and is approved by the FDA as a treatment for type II diabetes mellitus, a disease that occurs when the body is unable to effectively use glucose. RSG XR, the investigational drug used in this study, is an extended-release form of RSG.
This study tests whether RSG XR safely provides clinical benefit to people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD) when combined with the currently approved AD medication, Aricept (donepezil). RSG XR is a new approach to AD therapy and this study tests a new way to treat AD by testing whether one's genetic makeup affects their response to the study drug. Clinical data suggesting that RSG may benefit AD patients was first seen in a small study performed at the University of Washington and then from a larger GSK study conducted in Europe and New Zealand. In the first study, subjects receiving RSG once daily for 6 months scored significantly better on 3 tests of memory and thought than those who did not receive RSG. In the GSK study, those that appeared to benefit most from treatment with RSG XR had a specific genetic pattern. They did not have the gene that caused them to produce the protein apolipoprotein E e4 (APOE e4). Subjects who have the APOE e4 gene may have two copies, one from each parent, or they may have only one APOE e4 gene meaning that they inherited either the APOE e2 or APOE e3 version of the gene, instead of APOE e4, from one of their parents. Subjects with one copy of the APOE e4 gene remained at their same level of thinking ability while those with two copies of the APOE e4 gene, continued to worsen during the 6-month treatment. The current study will more directly test the effectiveness or RSG XR on people who either have or lack the APOE e4 gene.

结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline in Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale - Cognitive Subscale (ADAS-Cog) Total Score at Week 48
时间窗: Baseline (Week 0) and Week 48
ADAS is a performance-based test that measures specific cognitive and behavioral dysfunctions in participants with Alzheimer's Disease. The cognitive subscale of the ADAS (ADAS-Cog) comprises 11 items that are summed to a total score ranging from 0 to 70, with lower scores indicating less severe impairment. Change from baseline is calculated as Week 48 value minus the baseline value. APOE4 negative, All except E4/E4's: comprised of APOE4 negative and E4 heterozygote and full population was analyzed for this outcome measure. A hierarchical testing procedure was used to control for the two rosiglitazone dose groups and the genetic subgroups. Least square mean is entered for adjusted mean.
Change From Baseline in Clinical Dementia Rating Scale - Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB) at Week 48 for APOE E4
时间窗: Baseline (Week 0) and Week 48
CDR-SB is a semi-structured interview of participants and their caregivers. Participant's cognitive status is rated across 6 domains of functioning, including memory, orientation, judgment/problem solving, community affairs, home/hobbies, and personal care. Severity score assigned for each of 6 domains; Total score (SB) ranges from 0 to 18. Higher scores indicate greater disease severity. Change from baseline is calculated as Week 48 value minus the baseline value. APOE4 negative, All except E4/E4's: comprised of APOE4 negative and E4 heterozygote and full population was analyzed for this outcome measure. A hierarchical testing procedure was used to control for the two rosiglitazone dose groups and the genetic subgroups.
