Detailed Description
Eligible participants for this study must have a diagnosis of probable AD and must have clinically meaningful agitation secondary to AD.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-dummy, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, consisting of 10 weeks of treatment.
Up to 200 participants will be enrolled at approximately 30-40 centers in the US.
Study medication will be administered orally twice-daily from Day 1 through Day 70. Screening must occur within within approximately 4 weeks prior to randomization. Following screening procedures for assessment of inclusion and exclusion criteria, eligible participants will be randomized into the study.

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) Agitation/Aggression Domain Score From Day 1 (Stage 1 Baseline) to Day 36 (Stage 2 Baseline) and From Day 36 to Day 70
Time Frame: Day 1 (Stage 1 Baseline); Day 36 (Stage 2 Baseline); Day 70
|
The NPI is a retrospective interview covering 12 neuropsychiatric symptom domains and is used to evaluate psychopathology, neuropsychiatric manifestations, and caregiver distress.
The Agitation/Aggression domain was designed to collect information on the behavioral aspects of agitation/aggression in participants with probable Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and clinically meaningful agitation secondary to AD.
Each NPI domain is rated by the caregiver for symptom frequency and severity.
Symptom frequency is rated as: 1, occasionally; 2, often; 3, frequently; 4, very frequently.
Symptom severity is rated as: 1, mild; 2, moderate; 3, marked.
The total domain score is calculated as the frequency score multiplied by the severity score and thus ranges from 1 to 12.
A higher score represents worsening symptoms.
Change from Baseline is calculated as the post-Baseline score minus the Baseline score.
Data are reported for only those participants contributing data to the analysis.

The CSI is a 13-question tool that is used to measure strain related to care provision and to identify families with potential caregiving concerns.
There is at least one item for each of the following major domains: Employment, Financial, Physical, Social, and Time.
A 0 (No) to 1 (Yes) scale is used for each of the 13 questions; thus the total score ranges from 0 to 13.
Higher scores signify higher stress levels.
Positive responses to 7 or more items on the index indicate a greater level of strain.

Each of the 19 items is rated for severity on a scale of 0 to 2 (0, absent; 1, mild or intermittent; 2, severe).
The total score is calculated as the sum of the item scores and thus ranges from 0 to 38.
Higher scores signify more severe depression.
Scores above 10 indicate probable major depression.
Scores above 18 indicate definite major depression.
Scores below 6, as a rule, are associated with the absence of significant depressive symptoms.

|
The MMSE is a brief test that is used to screen for cognitive impairment.
The MMSE scale comprises 11 questions or simple tasks concerning orientation, memory, attention, and language to evaluate the participant's cognitive state.
The anchor values are not consistent for each task.
The MMSE total score is calculated by summing the item scores across all 11 tasks.
A participant's total possible MMSE score ranges from 0 to 30 points.
Higher scores indicate milder cognitive impairment.
Change from Baseline is calculated as the post-Baseline score minus the Baseline score.

Change in the Quality of Life-Alzheimer's Disease (QoL-AD) Score From Day 1 (Stage 1 Baseline) to Day 36 (Stage 2 Baseline) and From Day 36 to Day 70
Time Frame: Day 1 (Stage 1 Baseline); Day 36 (Stage 2 Baseline); Day 70
|
The QoL-AD is a brief, 13-item measure designed specifically to obtain a rating of the participant's quality of life (QoL) from both the participant and the caregiver.
It uses simple and straightforward language and responses and includes assessments of the individual's relationships with friends and family, concerns about finances, physical condition, mood, and an overall assessment of life quality.
Caregivers complete the measure as a questionnaire about the participants' QoL, whereas participants complete it in interview format about their own QoL.
Each of the 13 items is rated on a 4-point scale, with 1 indicating a poor QoL and 4 indicating an excellent QoL.
Total scores range from 13 to 52, with a higher score indicating a better QoL.
Change from Baseline is calculated as the post-Baseline score minus the Baseline score.

|
The ADCS-ADL inventory measures basic activities of daily living such as dressing, conversation, eating, bathing, and grooming.
The 19-item version, covering mainly basic ADL, is used to assess participants with more severe disabilities.
The ADCS-ADL uses a scale from 0 to 54. Lower scores indicate declining ability.
Change from Baseline is calculated as the post-Baseline value minus the Baseline value.

The NPI is a retrospective interview covering 12 neuropsychiatric symptom domains and is used to evaluate psychopathology, neuropsychiatric manifestations, and caregiver distress.
The Agitation/Aggression domain was designed to collect information on the behavioral aspects of agitation/aggression in participants with probable AD and clinically meaningful agitation secondary to AD.
Each NPI domain is rated by the caregiver for symptom frequency and severity.
Symptom frequency is rated as: 1, occasionally; 2, often; 3, frequently; 4, very frequently.
Symptom severity is rated as: 1, mild; 2, moderate; 3, marked.
The total domain score is calculated as the frequency score multiplied by the severity score and thus ranges from 1 to 12.
A higher score represents worsening symptoms.
Change from Baseline is calculated as the post-Baseline score minus the Baseline score.

Time Frame: up to Week 10
|
Concomitant medications (CMs) are defined as non-study medications with a start date on or before the final study visit, and that were either ongoing at the end of the study or had a stop date on or after the date of first dose of study drug.
Drugs for the treatment of AD (e.g., donepezil, rivastigmine, galantamine, memantine) were allowed when administered at stable dose for at least 2 months prior to randomization.
Concomitant use of the following medications was allowed, provided the participant had been on a stable dose for at least 1 month prior to randomization and remained stable throughout the study: medications for agitation secondary to AD; medications for nighttime management of insomnia or behavioral disturbances that included short-acting benzodiazepines, a low dose of alprazolam up to 0.5 milligrams (mg)/day, and a low dose of trazodone up to 50 mg/day; hypnotics for the treatment of insomnia; and certain classes of antidepressants.

up to Week 10
|
Number of Participants Using Rescue Medications
Time Frame: up to Week 10
|
Participants were allowed to receive oral lorazepam as rescue medication for the short-term treatment of symptoms of agitation, if deemed necessary by the investigator.
Lorazepam was to be administered at doses up to 1.5 mg/day, and dosing was not to exceed 3 days in any 7-day period.
