The primary purpose of the study is to assess if treatment with TML-6 for 52 weeks will be effective in slowing, stopping, or improving cognitive and functional decline in participants with early Alzheimer's Disease (AD) as compared to participants receiving placebo.

TML-6 is a novel, orally active, synthetic curcumin analog. it is an investigational oral small molecule which demonstrated multiple mechanisms of action for the treatment of AD and is different from the currently common antibody-based approaches. TML-6 uses a first-in-class upstream autolysosomal targeting approach, which may enable a multi-target approach in AD. There remains a significant unmet need for safe and effective disease-modifying therapies in AD as disease-modifying agents offer the greatest potential to alter the course of disease progression. TML-6, a curcumin analog with multi-targeted biological activity, is under investigation as a potential disease-modifying therapy for AD.

TML-6 has demonstrated biological activity, including antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, autolysosomal, and anti-amyloid effects. TML-6 exhibits multiple biological effects to anti-aging to improve metabolism and to reduce amyloid levels and inflammation. This study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of TML-6 in participants with early AD.
