研究概览
简要总结
ML-007C-MA-221 is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ML-007C-MA in male and female participants aged 55 to 90 years with hallucinations and delusions associated with Alzheimer's Disease Psychosis (ADP).
The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of ML-007C-MA compared with placebo for the treatment of hallucinations and delusions associated with ADP as measured by the Neuropsychiatric Inventory-Clinician (NPI-C): Hallucinations and Delusions (H+D) score.

- •Has a NPI-C H+D score of ≥ 6 AND meet at least 1 of the following criteria:
- •Moderate to severe delusions, defined as NPI-C Delusions domain score of ≥ 2 on at least 2 of the 8 items OR
- •Moderate to severe hallucinations, defined as NPI-C Hallucinations domain score of ≥ 2 on at least 2 of the 7 items.

结局指标
主要结局
Change from Baseline to End of Treatment in the Neuropsychiatric Inventory-Clinician: Hallucinations and Delusions (NPI-C H+D) score
时间窗: Baseline and End of Treatment (7 weeks)
NPI-C H+D scale includes 2 domains from the NPI-C scale, namely, hallucinations and delusions. These 2 domains include the following number of items to be rated by the clinician: Hallucinations, 7 items (maximum score = 21) and Delusions, 8 items (maximum score = 24). The maximum score for the NPI-C: H+D scale is 45. Higher scores on this scale indicate worse outcomes.
次要结局
- Change from Baseline to End of Treatment in the Clinical Global Impressions-Severity (CGI-S) hallucinations and delusions domain-specific score(Baseline and End of Treatment (7 weeks))
- Change from Baseline to End of Treatment in the Neuropsychiatric Inventory - Clinician Agitation and Aggression (NPI-C A+A) score in participants who have a CGI-S agitation/aggression domain-specific score of ≥4 at Baseline(Baseline and End of Treatment (7 weeks))
