Trial Description/Purpose
Enrollment is complete for Myriad's U.S. Phase 3 trial of FLURIZAN in patients with mild Alzheimer's disease (MMSE 20-26).
The Phase 3 study is a double blind, placebo-controlled trial, with
randomization of patients at enrollment into one of two arms. Patients
will be given 800mg of FLURIZAN or placebo twice daily for the
duration of the 18-month study period. Patients may be taking approved
medication for Alzheimer's disease provided the dose has been stable
for at least 6 months. The study is designed to determine FLURIZAN's
ability to alter the course of cognitive decline and functional change
in patients with mild Alzheimer's disease, as measured by the ADAS-cog
(Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale, cognitive subscale) test, and
the change in ADCS-ADL (Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study -
Activities of Daily Living scale), respectively. Patients who complete 18 months of the study may be eligible for treatment with Flurizan under an open-label protocol.
