  • Significant gastrointestinal disorders (for example gastrointestinal bleeding within the last two years, malabsorption syndromes, post-gastrectomy, or active peptic ulcer disease).
  • Uncontrolled endocrine disease such as uncontrolled diabetes mellitus or hyperthyroidism.

结局指标

主要结局

Change in Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-cognitive

时间窗: Week 28

Mean change from baseline in Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-cognitive subscale measured at the end of week 28. Total scores range from 0-70, with higher scores (≥ 18) indicating greater cognitive impairment.

Change in Clinical Dementia Rating-Sum of Boxes

时间窗: Week 28
