  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • 1. Age range: Adult patients (>40 years old) 2 Possible or Probable Dementia associated with cerebrovascular disease as defined by NINDS-AIREN Criteria with dementia of greater than 3 months duration.
  • 3. Radiological evidence of cerebrovascular disease. 4. Sex distribution: Both men and women. Women of child-bearing potential (<1 year post menopausal) must be willing to practice effective contraception and have a negative serum B-HCG at Screening. Pregnant and/or lactating females are excluded.
  • 5. Race and Health: Any generally healthy, ambulatory or ambulatory aided (i.e., walker, cane or wheelchair) outpatient. Vision and hearing (glasses, contact lens, and hearing aid permissible), speech, motor function and comprehension must be sufficient for compliance with all testing procedures.
  • 6. Patients with risk factors of hypertension and cardiac disease may be enrolled in the study, provided that hypertension is medication controlled (supine diastolic BP < 95 mm Hg) and cardiac disease (e.g. angina pectoris, congestive heart failure, right bundle branch block, or arrhythmias) is stable on appropriate medication for 3 months prior to Screening. Peripheral vascular disease must have been stable for 3 months prior to Screening. No elective surgical procedures should be planned during the course of the study (e.g., vascular bypass procedures or coronary artery bypass surgery).
  • 7. Patients with risk factors of diabetes mellitus may be enrolled in the study, provided that the patient's disease is stable and that there have been no recent (within 3 months) admissions for diabetic ketoacidosis, hyperosmolar coma, or hypoglycemia. Patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes may enroll in the study if controlled on diet or oral medications. All diabetic patients must have a HbA1c concentration of <=10% and a plasma glucose concentration of <= 250 mg/dL.
  • 8. Patients with risk factors of stroke may be enrolled in the study, provided that the disease process has been stable or controlled on medication for greater than 3 months prior to Screening. Patients receiving anticoagulation with warfarin are eligible for inclusion in the study if the International Normalized Ratio (INR) for prothrombin time is within the therapeutic range for prophylaxis (1.4-3.0) and the dose of warfarin is stable.

  • -- Patients with prosthetic heart valves, who require full anticoagulation, should have a stable (>= 3 months) INR in the range of 2.5-3.5.
  • 9. Patients who have taken a previously approved cholinesterase inhibitor (e.g., Aricept., Exelon., Reminyl., Cognex.) or memantine (Ebixa, Akinatol) are allowed provided that the medication was discontinued at least six (6) weeks prior to Screening.
  • 10. Patients with thyroid disease may be included in the study, provided they are euthyroid on treatment.
  • 11. Patient and study partner are willing to participate and have provided written Informed Consent prior to being exposed to any study-related procedures.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Donepezil Hydrochloride in people with Dementia, Vascular, run by Eisai Inc. at 5 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 0 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Apr 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety: physical examinations, ECG and clinical laboratory tests. Efficacy: Vascular-Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive subscale (V-ADAS-cog) and the Clinician's Interview-Based Impression of Change-Plus Version (CIBIC-Plus). (time frame: Parameters will be measured prior to, during and at the end of the study.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Apr 2011.
