About this study

Official title: Phase III Trial of Octohydroaminoacridine Succinate Tablet for Mild-to-Moderate Alzheimer's Disease: a 26 Weeks, Randomized, Double-blind, Double-dummy, Placebo- and Positive- Parallel Controlled and Extended Single Arm to 54 Weeks Multicentre Study

Inhibition of acetylcholinesterase has been a effective treatment for Alzheimer's disease. Octohydroaminoacridine, a new acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, is a potential treatment for Alzheimer's disease. The investigators conducted a 26 weeks, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo- and positive- parallel controlled and extended single arm to 54 weeks multicentre phase III clinical trial to investigate the effects of octohydroaminoacridine in patients with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease. Patients were randomized to receive placebo thrice daily, or octohydroaminoacridine 4 mg/TID or ARICEPT 5mg/QD.

Being tested
Octohydroaminoacridine Succinate, Aricept, Placebos

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Octohydroaminoacridine Succinate and Aricept in people with Alzheimer Disease, run by Shanghai Mental Health Center at 1 site in China.

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 12 inclusion and 15 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Oct 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Shifu Xiao, M.D., Ph.D. (+86 21 64387250 ext. 73441, xiaoshifu@msn.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive section (ADAS-Cog) (time frame: 26 weeks double-blind study and 28 weeks extention 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 22 Oct 2019.
