Study Summary

This trialis testing a drug (GV1001) to treat mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease by reducing the amount of proteins that damage the brain. In a completed study, the drug showed promising results and was safe.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals aged 55-85 with mild to moderate Alzheimer's, as shown by specific memory and cognition tests. They must have had a brain scan within the last two years consistent with Alzheimer's and no other dementia causes.

What is being tested?
The trial is testing GV1001, given as an injection under the skin in two different doses (0.56mg and 1.12mg), against a placebo to see if it can treat mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease by protecting nerve cells from damage caused by amyloid beta proteins.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While the exact side effects are not listed here, previous studies suggest GV1001 has an acceptable safety profile. Potential side effects may include typical drug reactions such as irritation at the injection site, allergic responses, or issues related to immune system changes.
