SB-742457 And Donepezil In Alzheimer's Disease

May 28, 2009 updated by: GlaxoSmithKline

A Double-Blind, Randomised, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel Group Study to Investigate the Effects of SB-742457, Donepezil and Placebo on Cognition in Subjects With Mild to Moderate Alzheimer's Disease

The purpose of this study is to find out if SB-742457 is a safe treatment and what effects it has on the symptoms of mild to moderate Alzheimer's Disease. SB-742457 is a new treatment which is thought to increase the levels of certain chemicals in the brain that are often decreased in patients with Alzheimer's Disease.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

50 years to 85 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion criteria:

  • Clinical diagnosis of probable mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's Disease as determined by the NINCDS-ADRDA and DSM-IV criteria with an MMSE score of 12-24.
  • Subjects and their caregivers must provide informed consent prior to study entry.
  • Adequate blood pressure and laboratory values.

Exclusion criteria:

  • Females of child-bearing potential.
  • Have other causes of dementia such as vascular damage, depression, bipolar affective disorder, schizophrenia, syphilis, vitamin B12 deficiency or thyroid deficiency.
  • Subjects taking medication for Alzheimers disease or centrally acting agents which might impact study outcomes.

  • Subjects with conditions which might be exacerbated by exposure to donepezil.
  • Subjects with known hypersensitivity to sunlight or seizures.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Change in cognition and function after 24 weeks.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Change in behavioral symptoms, activities of daily living and caregiver burden after 24 weeks Changes in all symptoms at 8 and 12 weeks Safety and tolerability PK (pharmacokinetic) profiling. Efficacy related to ApoE and HTR6 status
