The AHEAD Study is testing an investigational treatment aimed at maintaining normal memory and thinking in adults at higher risk.
Purpose
To determine if the investigational treatment BAN2401 is superior to a placebo in terms of maintaining normal cognitive (memory and thinking) abilities, and how effective it is in reducing levels of amyloid and tau plaques in the brain associated with the development of Alzheimer’s disease.
Process
Eligible participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: one that will receive the investigational medication, BAN2401, or one that will receive a placebo.
Participants will be monitored for 4 years.
Eligibility
Men and women ages 55 – 80
