A Safety and Efficacy Study of TC-1734-112 in Subjects With Age Associated Memory Impairment (AAMI)

The purpose of this Phase II study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ispronicline (TC-1734-112) compared to placebo (inactive substance pill) in patients with age associated memory impairment (AAMI). AAMI is characterized as cognitive impairment including memory loss and poor concentration associated with aging.
