Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • In order to be eligible for this study, subjects must meet the following inclusion criteria:
  • Male or female outpatients.
  • At least 50 years of age, but less than 90 (89 at time of screening)

  • Must have been diagnosed with amnestic MCI based on the most recent NIA-AA criteria (Albert et al., 2011), i.e. at both the screening and baseline visits (visits 1 and 2) have a documented Mini Mental State Exam (MMSE) score between 22-28.
  • CT or MRI scan of the brain obtained during the course of the dementia must be consistent with the diagnosis and show no evidence of significant focal lesions or of pathology which could contribute to dementia. If neither a CT nor an MRI scan is available from the past 12 months, a CT scan fulfilling the requirements must be obtained before randomization.
  • Vision and hearing must be sufficient to comply with study procedures.
  • Be able to take oral medications.
  • Hachinski ischemic score must be ≤ 4.
  • Geriatric depression scale must be ≤ 10.
  • Can be on stable doses of a cholinesterase inhibitor and/or memantine as long as it is stable for at least 90 days before screening and is expected to remain on a stable dose for the remainder of the study period; or have demonstrated intolerance to or lack of efficacy from these medications.
  • Must have a collateral informant/study partner who has significant direct contact with the patient at least 10 hours per week and who is willing to accompany the patient to specified clinic visits, supervise administration of all study medication, and be available for telephone visits/interviews.
  • If the patient has a legally authorized representative (LAR), the LAR must review and sign the informed consent form. If the patient does not have an LAR, the patient must appear able to provide informed consent and must review and sign the informed consent form. In addition, the patient's informant/study partner (as defined above) must sign an informed consent form. If the LAR and the patient's informant /study partner is the same individual, he/she should sign under both designations.
  • Must reside in the community.
  • Patients with stable prostate cancer may be included at the discretion of the Medical Monitor.
  • Positivity for amyloid brain scan: Amyloid PET positive at SUVr of 1.05

  • Known history or self-reported alcohol or substance abuse.
  • Living alone.
  • Poorly controlled hypertension. 7 .History of myocardial infarction or signs or symptoms of unstable coronary artery disease within the last year (including revascularization procedure/angioplasty).
  • 8\. Severe pulmonary disease (including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) requiring more than 2 hospitalizations within the past year.
  • 9\. Untreated sleep apnea. 10. Any thyroid disease (unless euthyroid on treatment for at least 6 months prior to screening).
  • 11\. Active neoplastic disease (except for skin tumors other than melanoma) within five years.
  • 12\. History of multiple myeloma. 13. Absolute neutropenia of \<750/mm3, or a history of neutropenia. 14. History of or current thromboembolism (including deep venous thrombosis). 15. Any clinically significant hepatic or renal disease (including presence of Hepatitis B or C antigen/antibody or an elevated transaminase levels of greater than two times the upper limit of normal (ULN) or creatinine greater than 1.5 x ULN).
  • 16\. Clinically significant hematologic or coagulation disorder including any unexplained anemia or a platelet count less than 100,000/μL at screening.
  • 17\. Use of any investigational drug within 30 days or within five half-lives of the investigational agent, whichever is longer.
  • 18\. Use any investigational medical device within two weeks before screening or after end of the present study.
