Study Evaluating GSI-953 in Healthy Young and Alzheimer's Patients

A Single Dose Study of the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of GSI-953 in Blood and Cerebrospinal Fluid, When Administered Orally to Healthy Young Subjects and Patients With Alzheimer Disease

To assess the pharmacodynamics (PD) of biomarkers amyloid beta peptide 40 and 42 (Ab40 and Ab42) in CSF, following single oral doses of GSI-953, an investigational drug, in healthy young subjects and patients with Alzheimer Disease (AD).
