Phase 3 — Testing in thousands of people, comparing the treatment against what doctors currently use. This is the last big step before approval.
This trial is testing whether adding to standard brain training and therapy helps people with newly diagnosed Alzheimer's disease better than brain training alone. You would be randomly assigned to receive either brain training with therapy as usual, or the same brain training and therapy plus daily tablets. The goal is to understand whether this medication, combined with these supportive treatments, makes a meaningful difference in how people manage their symptoms.
Alzheimer's disease currently has no cure, and doctors are looking for the best ways to help people in the early stages slow down memory and thinking problems. This trial exists to see whether this medication, when used alongside brain training and therapy, offers patients better outcomes than these supportive approaches alone.

If you enroll, you'll be randomly assigned to one of two groups. Both groups receive standard care including cognitive training sessions with a speech therapist and visits from an Alzheimer's specialist team at home. The other group also takes tablets daily — starting at 5 mg for one month, then increasing to 10 mg for the remaining five months. The trial lasts six months, and you'll have regular check-ins at memory clinics experienced in Alzheimer's care to monitor how you're doing.
