Open-Label Extension of the PTI-125-04 Study in Mild-to-Moderate Alzheimer's Disease

July 30, 2025 updated by: Cassava Sciences, Inc.

An Open-Label Extension of the PTI-125-04 Study Evaluating the Safety and Long-Term Treatment of Simufilam in Mild-to-Moderate Alzheimer's Disease Patients

This is a 96-week extension study of open-label simufilam 100 mg b.i.d. for mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease subjects who completed the Phase 2 study, PTI-125-04. The study will evaluate safety and long-term treatment. Safety will be assessed by AE monitoring, clinical labs, urinalysis, vital signs, ECGs, and C-SSRS.

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.

Detailed Description

This is an open-label 96-week extension study of open-label simufilam 100 mg b.i.d. for subjects who completed the Phase 2 study, PTI-125-04. All subjects will provide consent to enroll into this study. Simufilam will be administered as coated oral tablets. The last study visit, Month 24, from the PTI-125-04 study will be used for the Study Day 1 visit assessments in this extension study. Clinic visits will occur every 12 weeks ±10 days. A complete physical examination will be performed at Study Day 1, Week 48 and Week 96. Subjects will return to the clinic every 12 weeks for safety assessments of vital signs, AE monitoring, C-SSRS, and drug dispensation and accountability. Blood draws for clinical laboratory testing, urine collection for urinalysis, and ECGs will be performed at Study Day 1 and Weeks 24, 48, 72, and 96. Safety will be evaluated by adverse event monitoring, vital signs, clinical labs, and the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS).

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 and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

  1. Must have completed the PTI-125-04 study or Week 96 in the PTI-125-09 study.
  2. Male subjects must be willing to continue use of contraception during the study. With female partners of childbearing potential, male subjects, regardless of their fertility status, must agree to either remain abstinent or use condoms in combination with one additional highly effective method of contraception (e.g., oral or implanted contraceptives, or intrauterine devices) or an effective method of contraception (e.g., diaphragms with spermicide or cervical sponges) during the study and for 14 days after study drug dosing has been completed.

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.
