A 24-month, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel-group, Efficacy, Safety, Tolerability, Biomarker, and Pharmacokinetic Study of AZD3293 in Early Alzheimer's Disease (The AMARANTH Study)

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of lanabecestat compared with placebo administered for 104 weeks in the treatment of early Alzheimer´s disease. The study will test the hypothesis that lanabecestat is a disease-modifying treatment for participants with early Alzheimer´s disease, defined as the continuum of participants with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to Alzheimer´s disease and participants diagnosed with mild dementia of the Alzheimer´s type, as measured by change from baseline on the 13-item Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale - Cognitive Subscale (ADAS-Cog13) score at week 104 in each of the 2 lanabecestat treatment groups compared with placebo.
