简要总结
No Dimebon clinical data exist yet in patients with disease that has advanced to the moderate-to-severe stage. Therefore, this study evaluates the safety and efficacy of Dimebon in patients with moderate-to-severe AD who are receiving existing background therapy with memantine.
详细描述
This study was terminated on May 7, 2010 due to modification of the dimebon development plan following the lack of demonstration of efficacy in the completed DIM14 (CONNECTION) Study. The study was not terminated due to any safety findings. Dimebon has been well-tolerated in clinical trials. Demonstration of efficacy for dimebon in Alzheimer's disease is pending completion of the ongoing DIM18 (CONCERT) Study.

结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline in the Severe Impairment Battery (SIB) Score at Week 26
时间窗: Baseline, Week 26
SIB developed for evaluation of cognitive function in participants, who demented to a degree that they cannot complete conventional neuropsychological testing. Test items consisted of simple, one-step commands presented with gestural cues and instructions that were repeated if necessary. SIB test consisted of 51-item scale, divided into 9 subscales: social interaction (0-6), memory (0-14), orientation (0-6), language (0-46), attention (0-6), praxis(0-8), visuospatial ability(0-8), construction(0-4), orienting to name(0-2). Total possible score:0-100; lower score = greater cognitive impairment.
Change From Baseline in the Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study - Activities of Daily Living (Severe) (ADCS-ADLsev) Score at Week 26
时间窗: Baseline, Week 26
ADCS-ADLsev: 19-item scale measures basic and instrumental abilities in participant population and had good metric properties and reliability in detecting change. Individual score range: 0 to 5 for telephone, 0 to 4 for dressing, watch television, get around outside home, 0 to 3 for eating, walking, toilet, bathing, grooming, conversation/small talk, clear dishes, find personal belongings, obtain beverages, dispose of garbage, left on own, 0 to 1 for run water from and turn off faucet to wash hands, turn on and off light. Total score range: 0 to 54 lower scores=greater functional impairment.

- Clinician's Interview-Based Impression of Change Plus Caregiver Input (CIBIC-plus) Scores(Week 26)
- Resource Utilization in Dementia-Lite Version (RUD-Lite)(Baseline, Weeks 12, 18, 26)
- Euro Quality of Life - 5 Domain (EQ-5D) Assessment(Baseline, Weeks 12, 26)
- Population Pharmacokinetic (PK) Analysis(Pre-dose, 0.5 to 1.5 hours, 2.5 to 3.5 hours post-dose at Week 12)
- Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)(Baseline up to Week 30 (follow-up))
