Phase 3
Terminated
Conditions
Alzheimer Disease
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT00996918
Lead Sponsor
Pfizer
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of bapineuzumab in subjects with Alzheimer Disease who participated in study 3133K1-3000 (NCT00667810). Over 250 sites will participate in over 26 countries. Subjects will receive bapineuzumab. Each subject's participation will last approximately 4 years.

Safety was measured according to standard adverse event collection as described in the Adverse Event Section of the Results. Complete tables of events are provided there.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Base Study Baseline in Alzheimer's Disease Assesment Scale-Cognitive Subscale (ADAS-Cog/11) at Weeks 13, 26, 39, 52 and 78.Weeks 13, 26, 39, 52 and 78

The ADAS-Cog is a multi-item, objective measure of cognitive function. The scale evaluates memory, language, and praxis with items such as orientation, word recall, word recognition, object identification, comprehension, and the completion of simple tasks. Analysis of the ADAS-Cog for this study was based upon an 11 item score from the following items 1) word recall task, 2) naming objects and fingers, 3) following commands, 4) constructional praxis, 5) ideational praxis, 6) orientation, 7) word recognition, 8) remembering test instructions, 9) spoken language ability, 10) word finding difficulty in spontaneous speech, and 11) comprehension.This scale had to be administered by a trained and certified psychometric rater who did not have access to any information regarding adverse events experienced. The ADAS-Cog/11 ranged from 0 to 70 points, with higher scores indicating a greater degree of impairment. A negative change from baseline indicates a decrease in cognitive impairment.

Change From Base Study Baseline in Disability Assessment for Dementia (DAD) Score at Weeks 13, 26, 39, 52 and 78.Weeks 13, 26, 39, 52 and 78

The DAD measures instrumental and basic activities of daily living in participants with Alzheimer's Disease (AD). The DAD is administered to the participants'caregiver in the form of an interview. This scale had to be administered by a trained and certified psychometric rater who did not have access to any information regarding adverse events experienced by the participant. This scale assesses a participants' ability to initiate, plan, and perform activities related to hygiene, dressing, continence, eating, meal preparation, telephoning, going on an outing, finance and correspondence, medications, leisure, and housework. Each item can be scored as 1 = yes, 0 = no, non applicable = NA. A total score is obtained by adding the rating for each question and converting this total score out of 100. Higher scores indicate better function; a positive change from baseline indicates an improvement

Change From Base Study Baseline in Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) Score at Weeks 26, 52 and 78.Weeks 26, 52 and 78

NPI:12-domain caregiver assessment of behavioral disturbances occurring in dementia: delusions, hallucinations, agitation/aggression, depression/dysphoria, anxiety, elation/euphoria, apathy/indifference, disinhibition, irritability/lability, motor disturbance, appetite/eating, nighttime behavior. Severity (1=Mild to 3=Severe), frequency (1=occasionally to 4=very frequently) scales recorded for each domain; frequency\*severity=each domain score(range 0-12). Total score=sum of each domain score (range 0-144); higher score=greater behavioral disturbances; negative change score from baseline=improvement.

Severity (1=Mild to 3=Severe), frequency (1=occasionally to 4=very frequently) scales recorded for each domain; frequency\*severity=each domain score(range 0-12). Total score=sum of each domain score(range 0-144); higher score=greater behavioral disturbances; negative change score from baseline=improvement.

Change From Base Study Baseline in Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) Score at Weeks 6, 19, 32, 45 and 78.Weeks 6, 19, 32, 45 and 78

MMSE measured general cognitive functioning: orientation, memory, attention, concentration, naming, repetition, comprehension, and ability to create a sentence and to copy two intersecting polygons. Total score derived from sub-scores; total ranged from 0 to 30, higher score indicates better cognitive state.
