Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

    • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).

    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    • MMSE
    • ADCS-CGIC/CIBIC Plus
    • QoL-AD
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1. Male or female participants 55 to 85 years of age (both inclusive) at the time of signing the informed consent.
    2. Diagnosis of probable AD based on NINCDS-ADRDA criteria as determined by a neurologist, geriatrician, psychiatrist, or clinician approved by the Sponsor or designee.
    3. Mild or moderate dementia as evidenced by MMSE score ≥13 to ≤24 at screening (Visit 1).
    4. Imaging studies (MRI or CT) within 2 years prior to screening that has findings consistent with AD and without any other disease that may cause dementia.
    5. An Aβ PET scan or CSF examination performed within 2 years prior to screening with results consistent with the presence of amyloid pathology.
    6. If receiving an approved medication for AD (ie, donepezil, galantamine, rivastigmine, memantine, or memantine/donepezil combination product), must be on the medication with a stable dose for at least 12 weeks before the screening visit (dosing should remain stable throughout the study).
    7. If receiving an OTC supplement for cognition (eg, gingko biloba, omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid, vitamin E, curcumin), must not be exceeding the recommended dose for at least 12 weeks prior to screening visit.
    8. Able to visit the study center and undergo cognitive, functional, and other tests specified in the protocol.
    9. Has a caregiver who agrees to accompany the participant, to supervise the participant’s compliance, sees the participant sufficiently to provide meaningful assessment of changes in participant behavior and function over time and provide information on safety and tolerability.
    10. A male participant must agree to use a highly effective contraception method
    11. A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant, not breastfeeding, and not a WOCBP or a WOBCP who agrees to use highly effective contraception method.
    12. A WOCBP must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening (Visit 1) and a negative urine pregnancy test at Visit 2 before randomization, and must use medically accepted means of contraception throughout the study.
    13. Written informed consent provided by participant (or legal representative) and caregiver prior to any study-specific procedures.
    14. Participants in France must belong to a social security scheme.

    2. Concurrent or history of clinically significant psychiatric conditions (eg, schizophrenia or bipolar affective disorder) that in the Investigator’s opinion prevents the participant from participating, or is likely to confound interpretation of drug effect or affect cognitive assessments.
    3. Vitamin B12, folic acid, syphilis serology, and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) results that are thought to contribute to the severity of dementia or cause dementia. Participants may be enrolled if in the Investigator’s medical judgment, the abnormal laboratory values are not the cause of the cognitive symptoms.
    4. History of known or suspected seizures including febrile seizures (excluding self-limited childhood febrile seizures), a history of significant head trauma with loss of consciousness or recent unconsciousness that is not explained.
    5. Acute or unstable cardiovascular disease, active peptic ulcer, uncontrolled hypertension, uncontrolled diabetes or insulin dependent patients or any medical condition that may interfere with the completion of the clinical study.

Atypical antipsychotics may be used at the discretion of the Investigator. Tricyclic antidepressants and monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors are prohibited
    12. Previous treatment with GV1001.
    13. Received an investigational product for AD within the last 6 months.
