A Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Randomized Withdrawal Trial to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of AXS-05 for the Treatment of Agitation in Subjects With Dementia of the Alzheimer's Type
A Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Randomized Withdrawal Trial to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of AXS-05 for the Treatment of Agitation in Subjects With Dementia of the Alzheimer's Type
This is a multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized withdrawal study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AXS-05 compared to placebo in the treatment of agitation symptoms in subjects with agitation associated with Alzheimer's disease.
Enrolled patients will first enter a 9-week, open-label stabilization period, during which they will be treated with AXS-05 and monitored for a treatment response. Patients who experience a treatment response during the stabilization period will then be randomized into the double-blind treatment period, in a 1:1 ratio, to continue treatment with AXS-05 or to switch to placebo, for up to 26 weeks or until a relapse of agitation occurs.
