Study Design: 
TTP488-305 is a protocol that consists of two sequential, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, 
placebo-controlled, parallel group studies to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral azeliragon 5 mg/day 
relative to placebo in approximately 300 subjects (100 Part 1, 200 Part 2) with mild AD (screening MMSE 
21-26, baseline MMSE 19-27 and ADAS-cog14 score of ≥10) and impaired glucose tolerance (Screening 
HbA1c 6.5% -9.5%, inclusive).  Eligible participants will be randomly assigned to azeliragon or placebo 
in a 1:1 randomization for a double-blind dosing period of 6 months (Part 1) or 18 months (Part 2).  The 
Part 1 and Part 2 studies will have independently randomized, unique study populations. 
 
The Part 1, 6-month, double-blind treatment portion of the study will include 5 clinic visits.  The primary 
objective of the Part 1 portion is to evaluate the efficacy of 6 months of oral azeliragon on a measure of 
cognition (ADAScog14).  Secondary objectives of Part 1 will be to evaluate the efficacy of 6 months of 
oral azeliragon on multiple measures of function to inform selection of a functional endpoint to serve as 
co-primary in Part 2, as well as the sample size required to adequately power the study to detect treatment 
effect on cognitive and functional measures in the study population.  Upon completion of Part 1, a 
subject’s participation is considered complete and they will not be permitted to participate in Part 2.

treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other study procedures. 
14. The subject must have a reliable caregiver/informant with regular contact (i.e., 10 hours a week as 
combination of face-to-face visits and telephone contact acceptable) who will facilitate the subject’s 
full participation in the study.  Caregiver/informant must have sufficient subject interaction to be 
able to provide meaningful input into the rating scales administered in this study where 
caregiver/informant input is required, and evidence of this should be documented in source 
documentation.  Participants who reside in assisted living facilities are permitted provided that they 
meet caregiver/informant criteria.

criteria within 1 year prior to Screening or a positive result on the drug screening test (unless due to 
a permitted concomitant medication [e.g., a benzodiazepine as a sleep aid]). 
12. Subjects with pulmonary hypertension are excluded. 
13. Previous participation and dosing in another clinical trial for Alzheimer’s disease as follows: 
a. Exposure to putative disease modifying therapies within 1 year before Screening Visit is 
exclusionary, unless placebo treatment assignment is documented.

Study Number:  TTP488-305 
Phase:  2/3 
 
Statistical Methods: 
Population of Analysis: 
The following population of analysis will be used for all statistical analysis: 
 
The full analysis set (FAS) includes all randomized subjects who receive any study medication 
and have at least one post-Baseline assessment. 
 
The per protocol set (PPS) includes all subjects in the FAS, except for those who are excluded 
because of major protocol violations, where a major protocol violation is one that may affect the 
interpretation of study results (e.g., taking less than 50% of prescribed study medication during 
participation). 
 
The safety set (SAF) includes all subjects who receive any study medication. 
The FAS will be used for all hypothesis tests of efficacy. The PPS is used for supportive efficacy analysis. 
The SAF will be used for safety analyses. 
Sample size considerations for Part 1:  
Assuming a standard deviation of the change from Baseline to Month 6 in ADAS-cog14 of 4, using alpha 
= 0.05, a total sample size of approximately 82 subjects in balanced allocation (41 subjects per group) 
provides at least 90% power to detect a difference between treatment groups of 2.9 using a 2-sided, 
2-sample t-test.  Assuming a dropout rate of 18% or less, randomization of 100 subjects provides adequate 
statistical power for Part 1 to demonstrate superiority of azeliragon over placebo based on the 
ADAS-cog14. 
Sample size considerations for Part 2:  
Assuming a standard deviation of the change from Baseline to Month 18 in ADAS-cog14 of 7.5, using 
alpha = 0.049, a total sample size of 120 subjects in balanced allocation (60 subjects per group) provides 
at least 90% power to detect a difference between treatment groups of 4.5 using a 2-sided, 2-sample t-test.  
Assuming a dropout rate of 25% or less, randomization of 160 subjects provides adequate statistical power 
for Part 2 to demonstrate superiority of azeliragon over placebo based on the ADAS-cog14. 
Statistical methods: 
The primary analysis will use the intent-to-treat (ITT) methodology and a main-effects model for analysis 
of covariance with baseline ADAS-cog14 as a covariate on change from baseline to endpoint in 
ADAS-cog14 using multiple-imputation methods for coping with missing data. The primary analysis will 
be supported by a mixed-models repeated measures (MMRM) analysis with adjustment for baseline 
ADAS-cog14 measures.  Similar methodology will be used for the functional endpoints (CDR-sb, FAQ, 
Amsterdam IADL). The primary analysis will also be supported by ANCOVA using last-observation-
carried-forward (LOCF) methods, and also an observed cases analysis (no imputation, no deletion) will 
be done. The supportive MMRM analysis will include treatment, time and treatment-by-time interaction 
as fixed effects, baseline as covariate and subject as a random effect.  Supportive modeling will also 
include MMRM main-effects model with treatment, time, and subject. The same statistical methodology 
will be applied to the functional endpoints. A conditional sequence of statistical hypotheses will be used 
to control alpha with the ADAS-cog14 being tested first, and conditional on statistical significance, testing 
will proceed to CDR.

INTRODUCTION 
These studies are designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of azeliragon as a 
treatment for subjects with mild Alzheimer’s disease and impaired glucose 
tolerance. 
1.1 
BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE 
1.1.1 
Dementia and Diabetes 
Worldwide there are currently approximately 35.6 million people with 
dementia.(Alzheimer’s Association 2016)  There is an estimated 98 million people 
(65-79 years-old) who have diabetes.(International Diabetes Federation 2017)  In 
the absence of a treatment that slows or halts the progression of cognitive and 
functional decline, AD often seriously impacts patients and their families as well as 
the healthcare economy.  This is true in the AD population generally, but also among 
those with both AD and diabetes. 
Numerous studies have suggested a link between type 2 diabetes and cognitive 
decline, mild cognitive impairment, and dementia.(Dhananjayan 2018)  Type 2 
diabetes may be present in up to 35% of people with Alzheimer’s disease.(Janson 
2004)  Recently, a linear correlation between circulating HbA1c levels and cognitive 
decline has been observed in the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing.(Zheng 
2018)  It is also estimated that, in the United States, nearly 40 percent of Medicare 
beneficiaries age 65 and older with dementia also have diabetes.(Alzheimer’s 
Association. 2018)  Given the prevalence of type 2 diabetes and dementia in the most 
rapidly-growing segment of the population, there is a significant unmet medical 
need. 
An overproduction of amyloid beta (Aβ) has been implicated as the leading 
mechanistic factor in AD pathology. Aβ is known to bind to the receptor for 
advanced glycation endproducts (RAGE), an immunoglobulin supergene family 
member expressed on multiple cell types in the brain and the periphery.(Yan 1996, 
Stern 2002)  RAGE is expressed at low levels in many healthy tissues (except skin 
and mucus membranes) and is prominently expressed on endothelial cells and 
microglia of the neurovascular compartment.  RAGE ligands include Aβ, S100b, 
HMGB1, and Advanced Glycation Endproducts (AGEs).  Increases in the

concentration of RAGE ligands induce RAGE expression.  RAGE-ligand 
interactions lead to sustained inflammatory states that play a role in chronic diseases, 
including diabetes, inflammation, and AD.(Stern 2002, Bierhaus 2005)  RAGE has 
been proposed to contribute to AD pathology by: promoting inflammation, vascular 
leakage, and influx of peripheral Aβ into brain; mediating Aβ induced oxidative 
stress and Aβ- mediated neuronal death.(Dean 2003, Carrano 2011, Hartz 2012, 
Kook 2012)  Additionally, RAGE is believed to be involved in mediating advanced 
glycation endproduct-induced tau hyperphosphorylation.(Li 2012) In AD, increases 
in RAGE protein and percentage of RAGE‐expressing microglia parallel the severity 
of disease.(Yan 1996) 
AGEs accumulate in tissues of people with type 2 diabetes playing a major role in 
worsening of complications of type 2 diabetes, such as retinopathy, neuropathy and 
nephropathy.  When the concentration of RAGE ligands (e.g., AGEs) increase, more 
RAGE expression is induced.(Bierhaus 2005)  Furthermore, AGE accumulation 
parallels the development of cognitive impairment and dementia in individuals with 
type 2 diabetes.(Dhananjayan 2018) 
1.1.2 
Mechanism of Action 
Azeliragon is an orally bioavailable inhibitor of the receptor for advanced glycation 
endproducts (RAGE) being developed by vTv.   
In transgenic mouse models of AD, azeliragon is associated with less 
neuroinflammation (TNF-. TGF-. IL-1) and Aβ deposition in the brain, 
improvement in cerebral blood flow and glucose uptake in the brain, and 
preservation of cognitive / behavioral performance compared to control animals.  
Azeliragon has also been shown, in animal models of type 2 diabetes, to reduce 
inflammatory markers with improvement in wound healing (endothelial cell 
extension), diabetic retinopathy (microvascular trees comparable to control) and 
nephropathy (improved sclerotic lesions).   
Recent exploratory analyses of azeliragon from the STEADFAST Phase 3 studies 
provide preliminary clinical evidence that patients with increased concentrations of 
RAGE ligands may benefit from azeliragon.

These data taken together suggest that inhibition of RAGE with an orally available 
small molecule inhibitor, such as azeliragon, presents an attractive therapeutic 
rationale for the treatment of Alzheimer’s dementia in patients with impaired 
glucose tolerance.  
1.1.3 
Clinical Studies 
The azeliragon clinical development program to date consists of eight Phase 1 
studies in the USA, three Phase 2 studies in North America (US and Canada), two 
Phase 3 studies (operationally conducted under one protocol) and an open-label 
extension study conducted globally, described in the Investigator’s Brochure. 
vTv recently completed two Phase 3 studies (under protocol TTP488-301, 
STEADFAST A-Study and STEADFAST B-Study) examining the effect of 
azeliragon on both cognitive (i.e., ADAS-cog11) and functional (i.e., CDR-sb) 
outcomes in patients with mild dementia of the Alzheimer’s disease type.  The trial 
was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 880 participants with 
probable mild AD, MMSE 21-26 at screening, CDR 0.5 or 1, receiving stable 
standard of care (acetylcholinesterase inhibitor and/or memantine) evaluating the 
efficacy and safety of 18 months of treatment with azeliragon 5 mg/day relative to 
placebo.  The clinical trial design included two separate, identical studies (A-Study 
and B-Study) operationally conducted under a single protocol.  Each study was 
independently powered to evaluate efficacy with respect to co-primary endpoints of 
ADAS cog11 and CDR-sb and were randomized separately.  Patients were 
randomized 1:1 (site-based randomization) to azeliragon (5 mg/day) or placebo.  The 
A-Study was conducted in North America (US and Canada).  The B-Study was 
global, conducted in North America (US and Canada), Ireland, UK, South Africa, 
Australia and New Zealand.    
Topline results from the STEADFAST A-Study failed to demonstrate a beneficial 
effect of azeliragon on the protocol specified primary endpoints. As a result, the 
ongoing studies (including the B-Study) were terminated, databases locked, and data 
analyzed. Although the STEADFAST A-Study and B-Study did not achieve 
statistical significance on either of the co-primary endpoints, important results were 
obtained through post-hoc subgroup analysis that warrant additional investigation.

Further examination of the data showed clear differences in rate of placebo decline 
in ADAS-cog between the STEADFAST study (3 points in 18 months), the 
azeliragon Phase 2b study (10 points in 18 months) and that published for other 
similar studies (6 points in 18 months [Thomas 2016]), which may explain the lack 
of detectable effect in the STEADFAST study (the study was powered to detect a 4 
point difference in change from baseline between active and placebo at 18 months, 
assuming a placebo decline of approximately 6 points over 18 months).  It is 
hypothesized that subjects with higher expression of RAGE would present more 
inflammation and neurodegeneration and decline at a faster rate.   
It has been demonstrated that advanced glycation endproducts accumulate in tissues 
of patients with diabetes with expression of RAGE increasing in response to injury 
and increases in ligand concentrations, including AGEs.  This interaction of AGEs, 
and other ligands of RAGE, leads to sustained cellular damage and inflammation 
thus contributing to complications of diabetes including retinopathy, neuropathy and 
nephropathy.  Further it has been shown that accumulation of AGEs parallels the 
development of cognitive impairment and dementia in patients with diabetes.   Thus, 
patients with diabetes represent a sub-group expected to have increased 
concentration of RAGE ligands, increased expression of the RAGE receptor, have 
the potential to decline at a more rapid rate and thereby likely to respond to an 
antagonist of RAGE.   
A comparison of placebo-treated subjects in the diabetic subgroup (defined as 
HbA1c ≥ 6.5%) and the non-diabetic (HbA1c < 6.5%) complement of the target 
analysis set (subjects with evidence of cognitive impairment at Baseline [ADAScog 
≥ 10]) is provided in Figure 1.  Interestingly, the data show a clear difference in the 
rate of cognitive decline between the placebo subjects with diabetes and the placebo 
subjects without diabetes.  The diabetic, placebo-treated subjects had numerically 
greater decline from baseline in the ADAS-cog when compared with the non-
diabetic, placebo treated subjects.  These data further support the hypothesis that 
subjects with presumed higher expression of RAGE present more inflammation and 
neurodegeneration and decline at a faster rate.

*p values are relative to each population’s Baseline.  
A subpopulation of STEADFAST participants with probable Alzheimer’s disease 
and type 2 diabetes was evaluated during post hoc, exploratory, subgroup analyses 
of the STEADFAST Study.  Patients with type 2 diabetes were selected because they 
are known to have increased levels of AGEs; and increased levels of AGEs are 
known to induce RAGE expression.  Therefore, HbA1c was chosen as a surrogate 
for identifying individuals with elevated levels of AGEs and high RAGE expression.  
Based on the hypothesis that subjects with presumed increased expression of RAGE 
would demonstrate enhanced effects from a RAGE antagonist, the subgroup was 
defined as those STEADFAST participants with Baseline HbA1c ≥ 6.5%.  The 
objective of the subgroup analysis was to determine if a differential response to 
azeliragon was observed in patients with increased HbA1c. 
Twenty-four subjects (17 azeliragon and 7 placebo) in the STEADFAST A-study 
dataset were identified as the Target Analysis Set (TAS).  The TAS represents the 
intended subject population for future studies and is defined as subjects with HbA1c 
≥ 6.5% at Baseline and evidence of cognitive impairment at Baseline (ADAS-cog ≥ 
10).  Twenty-six subjects (13 azeliragon and 13 placebo) in the STEADFAST B-

study were identified as the TAS with Baseline HbA1c ≥ 6.5% and ADAS-cog ≥ 10.  
Unfortunately, the B-study was terminated by the sponsor and limited data are 
available beyond Month 9 for this subgroup.  Figure 2 displays the Change from

Results from the A-Study that completed the 18-month treatment period as planned, 
show a clear delineation between azeliragon and placebo groups in ADAS-cog 
throughout the duration of the study; separation achieves nominal statistical 
significance at multiple timepoints throughout treatment.  The azeliragon-treated 
group (n=17) demonstrated a 3.8-point benefit on ADAS-cog relative to the placebo 
group (n=7) at Month 6, which was nominally statistically significant (p = 0.009).  
The azeliragon-treated group went on to demonstrate a 6.1-point benefit on ADAS-
cog relative to the placebo group at Month 18, which was nominally statistically 
significant (p = 0.018). 
Results from the B-Study that terminated after approximately 12 months of 
treatment, show numerical values on ADAS-cog change from baseline favoring 
azeliragon.  The azeliragon-treated group (n=13) demonstrated a 1.9-point benefit 
on ADAS-cog relative to the placebo group (n=13) at Month 6.  The azeliragon-
treated group went on to demonstrate a 3.6-point benefit on ADAS-cog relative to 
the placebo group at Month 12.   
Change from Baseline in CDR-sb was evaluated for the A-Study and B-Study in the 
TAS.  Results from the A-Study that completed the 18-month treatment period as 
planned, show a clear delineation between azeliragon and placebo groups in

CDR-sb.  The azeliragon-treated group (n=17) demonstrated a 1.7-point benefit on 
CDR-sb relative to the placebo group (n=7) at Month 18 (p = 0.05).   
CDR-sb results from the B-Study are difficult to interpret.  The planned study 
duration of 18 months was intended to allow sufficient time to see decline in the 
functional measure.  Unfortunately, the B-study was terminated prematurely by the 
sponsor and limited data are available beyond Month 6 for the B Study type 2 
diabetic subgroup.  In the B-Study at Month 12, the azeliragon-treated group (n=13) 
demonstrated a 1.5-point change from Baseline while the placebo-treated group 
(n=13) had a 0.8-point change from Baseline.  The inherent variability of the 
CDR-sb measure combined with the small sample size and shorter study duration 
for subjects in the B study has limited the interpretation of the functional endpoint 
in the B-Study.   
The subgroup analysis of the STEADFAST Study showed cognitive benefit of 
azeliragon treatment in the subset of patients with probable AD and type 2 diabetes 
(as determined by HbA1c ≥ 6.5%).  In support of the biological hypothesis for 
pursuing further development in patients with Alzheimer’s dementia and type 2 
diabetes, analyses were performed on changes in brain volumetric MRI, brain FDG 
PET, plasma RAGE related inflammatory markers, and glycemic control in patients 
that completed the 18-month study.  The brain volumetric MRI data show favorable 
trends for less whole brain atrophy and less ventricular enlargement in the 
azeliragon-treated subgroup with HBA1c ≥6.5%.  FDG PET data (standardized 
uptake value ratio [SUVR] for the mean composite region defined as unweighted 
combination of frontal, anterior/posterior cingulate, lateral parietal, lateral temporal 
and hippocampus) show trends for smaller decrements in glucose uptake (SUVR) in 
the azeliragon-treated subgroup with HBA1c ≥6.5%.  Acknowledging the small 
sample sizes in the subgroup, the treatment differences in the type 2 diabetic 
subgroup (HbA1c ≥6.5%) are more robust than the overall study population. 
Furthermore, a decrease in several plasma inflammatory biomarkers was observed 
in the type 2 diabetic subgroup patients treated with azeliragon in the A-Study. The 
biomarker panel data (Figure 3) show significant decreases from Baseline to Month 
18 in the azeliragon group in IL-6, IL 12, INF, CD40L, MIP-1, IL-2 and TNF, 
and FGF-2; the data also show strong trends toward a decrease in IL 13, TGF, 
MCP-3 MPC-1 and CSF2 in the azeliragon group.  These inflammatory biomarkers

are those associated with RAGE activation and are contributors to the 
neuroinflammation signaling pathway.  The decrease in several plasma 
inflammatory biomarkers in the azeliragon-treated group provides further biological 
evidence of a treatment response in this subpopulation.

Subgroup (TTP488-301 A-Study [FAS completers]) 
 
 
The observed cognitive benefit of azeliragon in a subgroup of AD patients with 
co-existing type 2 diabetes is supported by biological evidence of response including 
MRI, FDG-PET, and biomarker data.  Furthermore, the subgroup findings are 
consistent with the biology of RAGE and the mechanism of action of azeliragon.  It 
is biologically plausible that blocking RAGE-ligand interactions in this population, 
with azeliragon, can result in a robust beneficial effect.  These results warrant further 
investigation to confirm azeliragon is a potential therapeutic approach for the 
treatment of patients with Alzheimer’s disease and impaired glucose tolerance.   
The present study has been designed to evaluate the efficacy of azeliragon in subjects 
with mild Alzheimer’s disease and impaired glucose tolerance, defined as HbA1c 
≥6.5%.

Dose Selection Rationale 
The azeliragon dose (5 mg daily) for the current study was selected following review 
of single- and multiple-dose PK, pharmacodynamics (PD), and safety data, and the 
clinical efficacy data from the Phase 2 study (TTP488-203) and the Phase 3 study 
(TTP488-301). 
The decision to advance a 5mg dose into Phase 3 was based on exploratory analyses 
relating azeliragon trough concentrations to ADAS-cog values and changes in 
ADAS-cog utilized a subject-level concentration value derived by 2 methods: (1) 
the maximum of the trough concentration values for that subject over the 18-month 
period, and (2) the median concentration value for that individual.  Analyses were 
done at the subject level.  Each subject’s value was analyzed using descriptive 
statistics.  A summary of the results is found in Table 3.

Participants were subsequently classified into concentration groups according to 
cut-points in the distribution of trough concentration values ignoring administered 
dose.  To assess the sensitivity of analysis results to the choice of cut-points, analysis 
included the following cuts: 
 
Tertile 
 
Quartile 
 
Quintile 
 
Decile

Page 35 
Results of analyses of the 4 classification schemes were consistent.  Results 
indicated that within certain trough concentration ranges, delineation from placebo 
in changes in ADAS- cog at 18 months for azeliragon was more pronounced than in 
other ranges.  As expected, higher trough concentrations tended to be observed for 
participants in the 20 mg dose group, and lower trough concentrations tended to be 
observed for participants in the 5 mg dose group. 
Exploratory analysis of concentration-driven assessment of PK/PD effects included 
the quantile cuts described above and also iterative analysis focused on identification 
of a concentration range that was associated with optimal effectiveness for efficacy 
measures (primary and secondary measures). The iterative analysis included 
construction of groups with minimum trough concentrations ranging from 1 to 
20 ng/ml. Within these groups, ranges were derived using optimization techniques 
to identify concentration groups that maximized efficacy. The results of the 
exploratory PK/PD analysis concluded that the optimal trough concentration range 
was 8-15 ng/ml over the 18-month period. 
Based on the considerations outlined above, a 5 mg/day dose was selected.  Doses 
below 5 mg/day and between 5 mg/day and 20 mg/day were considered.  Doses 
below 5 mg/day are expected to provide non-efficacious concentrations.  Doses 
above 5 mg/day (ex: 10 mg/day) are not expected to provide significantly improved 
efficacy relative to the potential for achieving concentrations associated with acute, 
reversible cognitive worsening. 
The effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of azeliragon was evaluated in the 
TTP488-105 study.  There was an approximately 20% reduction in exposure (Cmax, 
AUC0-last, and AUC0-72) following administration of a single 5 mg dose of azeliragon 
following a standard FDA high fat breakfast compared to dosing in the fasted state.  
Fed subjects experienced a greater lag time for absorption as compared to fasted 
subjects (median Tlag of 4 hours versus 1 hour post-dosing, respectively); however, 
the median Tmax was the same between treatment groups (16 hours post-dosing).  
Therefore, azeliragon may be administered without regard to food.

STUDY DESIGN 
TTP488-305 is a protocol that consists of two sequential, multi-center, randomized, 
double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group studies to evaluate the safety and 
efficacy of oral azeliragon 5 mg/day relative to placebo in approximately 
300 subjects (100 Part 1, 200 Part 2) with mild Alzheimer’s disease (screening 
MMSE 21-26, baseline MMSE 19-27 and ADAS-cog14 score of ≥ 10) and impaired 
glucose tolerance (Screening HbA1c 6.5% -9.5%, inclusive).  Eligible participants 
will be randomly assigned to azeliragon or placebo in a 1:1 randomization for a 
double-blind dosing period of 6 months (Part 1) or 18 months (Part 2).  The Part 1 
and Part 2 studies will have independently randomized, unique study populations. 
The Part 1, 6-month, double-blind treatment portion of the study will include 5 clinic 
visits.  The primary objective of the Part 1 portion is to evaluate the efficacy of 
6 months of oral azeliragon on a measure of cognition (ADAS-cog14).  Secondary 
objectives of Part 1 will be to evaluate the efficacy of 6 months of oral azeliragon 
on multiple measures of function to inform selection of a functional endpoint to 
serve as co-primary in Part 2, as well as the sample size required to adequately power 
the study to detect treatment effect on cognitive and functional measures in the study 
population.  Upon completion of Part 1, a subject’s participation is considered 
complete and they will not be permitted to participate in Part 2.  The Schedule of 
Activities for Part 1 is described in Table 1. 
The Part 2, 18-month, double-blind treatment portion of the study will include 
9 clinic visits.  Part 2 will enroll 200 subjects who will be randomized to receive oral 
azeliragon 5 mg/day or placebo in a 1:1 randomization.   The Schedule of Activities 
for Part 2 is described in Table 2. 
A minimum of three staff members will be required to conduct the protocol at each 
site.   
 
Principal Investigator (PI) – This person is responsible for the clinical 
evaluation of all participants, ensuring subject eligibility, enrollment and 
protocol adherence, endpoint determinations, and medical decisions related to 
the study.  The PI will supervise project personnel and ensure that raters 
maintain a high level of skill and accuracy in conducting assessments.  The PI 
may not serve as the CDR Rater.

INSTRUCTION 
4.3.1 
Males 
A fertile male study participant, whose sexual partner is female and of childbearing 
potential, must agree to use one of the following methods of contraception for the 
duration of the study (from the first dose until 90 days after the final dose of the 
study medication):  abstinence, use of condom plus their female partners must use 
another form of contraception including implants, injectables, combined oral 
contraceptives, barrier contraception methods, spermicides, intrauterine devices 
(IUDs), transdermal contraceptives, and intravaginal contraception rings. The male 
study participant should also agree to no sperm donation for 90 days after the final 
dose of study medication. 
At appropriate study visits, all study participants are reminded of contraception 
requirements as described above.  Upon discharge from the study, subjects will be 
instructed to notify the Study Site if a female study participant or female partner of 
a male study participant becomes pregnant within 90 days of last dose of study 
medication. 
4.3.2 
Females 
Only females of non-child bearing potential are allowed in the study.  Screening 
laboratory FSH values will be obtained on all females to confirm post-menopausal 
status for those females who are not surgically sterile.  No additional birth control is 
required.

STUDY TREATMENTS 
5.1 
PROCESS FOR RANDOMIZATION TO STUDY TREATMENT 
Subjects will be screened by Investigators or qualified designees to assess eligibility 
for randomization into the study.  An interactive voice response system (IVRS)/ 
interactive web response system (IWRS) will be used for assignment of treatment. 
Subjects will be enrolled and randomized according to a fixed randomization scheme 
blocked by study investigative site.  Randomization will have balanced allocation 
(1:1) between azeliragon and placebo.  Dropouts will not be replaced. 
5.2 
PROCESS FOR EMERGENCY BREAKING THE BLIND 
The study will be double-blind.  At the initiation of the study, the study site will be 
instructed on the electronic process for breaking the blind.  Blinding should only be 
broken in emergency situations when knowledge of the treatment assignments is 
necessary for subject safety.  Upon breaking the blind, the reason must be 
documented in the electronic data capture system. The sponsor or representative 
should be consulted prior to breaking the blind except in emergent circumstances.  
5.3 
DRUG SUPPLIES 
Drug supplies will consist of a 5 mg and matching placebo formulation supplied as 
a Size 2 hard gelatin capsule in a double-blind fashion.  The recommended storage 
condition for the product is room temperature at 15oC to 30oC (59oF to 86oF). 
5.3.1 
Formulation and Packaging 
Azeliragon and matching placebo capsules will be packaged into child-resistant, 
high density polyethylene (HDPE) bottles with heat induction seal (HIS) closures.  
Supplies will be packaged in a blinded fashion.  All doses and formulations are 
identical in appearance and packaging. 
Storage conditions and participant dosing instructions will be listed on the 
packaging.

Page 49 
5.3.2 
Administration 
Treatment will begin in the clinic at the baseline visit immediately following 
randomization. One capsule will be administered with a glass of water.  Participants 
will be instructed to take one capsule per day by mouth for the duration of the 
treatment period.  The day’s dose of study medication will be administered in the 
clinic at the end of each subsequent study visit.  Study medication may be 
administered without regard to meals. 
5.3.3 
Compliance 
Participants will bring all unused azeliragon/placebo capsules to each study visit.  
The number of capsules will be counted and documented.  If more than expected are 
returned, participants will be asked to account for missed doses.  If the number of 
capsules is less than expected, participants will be asked to account for the missing 
capsules (e.g., capsules that are lost vs. excessive dosing of study medication). 
Caregivers/Informants will be instructed to assist with monitoring dosing 
compliance.  Dosing compliance < 90% or > 100% for a 3-month period will be 
documented as a protocol deviation. 
5.3.4 
Drug Storage and Drug Accountability 
Study drug supplies must be stored at room temperature (15C –30C [59F-86F]) 
in a secure and locked area.  The pharmacist or designee at the study site will manage 
and store the study drug. 
Study drugs will be accounted for in the case report form and drug accountability 
inventory forms as instructed by the Sponsor.  At the end of the study, all drug 
supplies not dispensed or unused by the participants must be returned to the location 
designated by the Sponsor. 
5.4 
CONCOMITANT MEDICATION(S) 
All participants will be questioned about concomitant medication and supplements 
at each study visit.  Concomitant medications (including over the counter 
medications and supplements) taken during the study must be recorded with 
indication, daily dose, and start and stop dates of administration.  During the study, 
49

Page 50 
participants should be instructed to review new prescriptions and over-the-counter 
preparations with the investigator prior to taking any medications. All new 
medications should be discussed with the investigator and recorded on the Case 
Report Form (CRF).  If the medication is started because of an adverse event (AE) 
or medical history indication, this event should be reported on the appropriate CRF. 
 
Medications taken within 60 days prior to screening must be documented as a 
prior medication.   
 
All past medications/therapies for dementia, regardless of timing relative to 
screening, must be recorded.   
 
Medications taken after the first dose of study medication must be documented 
as concomitant medications. 
The following are specific considerations with regard to use of concomitant 
medications.  Any additional questions regarding medications should be addressed 
to the Sponsor’s medical monitor. 
Anti-diabetic therapy: 
 
Participants on anti-diabetic therapy must be on a stable dose for at least 
60 days prior to Screening and remain stable through Baseline.  There should 
be expectation that treatment and dose will remain stable for the duration of 
the trial.   
 
Participants using insulin therapy are excluded from study participation. 
Treatment for dementia: 
 
All participants must be on a stable dose of background therapy (cholinesterase 
inhibitor and/or memantine) at least 60 days prior to Screening and remain 
stable through Baseline.  There must be agreement to continue at the stable 
treatment and dose for the duration of the trial.   
 
Dose reductions of background therapy are permitted during the course of the 
trial (e.g., due to safety/tolerability or to conform with local standard of care).

 
Dose increases of background cholinesterase inhibitor and/or memantine 
during the course of the trial will be considered major protocol deviations. 
Medications that may affect behavior or cognitive function (e.g., antidepressants, 
antipsychotics, sedatives/anxiolytics) must be at a stable dose (i.e., in the 
investigators judgment, efficacy and tolerability have been optimized) for at least 
4 weeks prior to randomization and are expected to continue on a stable dose for the 
duration of the trial. (Dose adjustments are permitted however participants must be 
on a stable dose at least one week prior to any protocol-specified clinical 
assessments). Exceptions to medications that may negatively affect cognitive 
function are as follows: 
 
Participants may receive pre-medication (e.g., sedative or anxiolytic) for the 
MRI or CT scan assessment.  This medication should not be administered 
within 5 half-lives preceding any efficacy assessments. 
 
Considerations for use of medications that may affect the CNS or cognition 
following randomization. Generally, medications that affect cognition are not 
allowed. In such case that there is an acute need for use of a medication that 
may negatively affect 
cognition 
or the CNS in general (e.g., 
sedatives/anxiolytics, antipsychotics, opiates), their use should be transient (no 
more than 4 weeks), must be stable for at least one week prior to any cognitive 
assessments, and discussed with the sponsor’s medical monitor prior to use (or 
as soon as possible following discovery of their use). Chronic use of these 
medications is not permitted. Should their use be deemed to be chronic 
(spanning months), discussion with the Sponsor’s medical monitor is required 
regarding continued participation in the trial.  
The use of following concomitant medications is not allowed: 
 
Drugs known to be strong CYP2C8 inhibitors (See APPENDIX 2 for a list). 
 
Any use of steroid treatment. Allowable exceptions: a) topical, otic, nasal or 
inhaled corticosteroid applications to the skin, and b) localized corticosteroid 
injections, no more than once every 6 months. 
 
Prescription medical food (i.e. Axona) intended for the dietary management of 
the metabolic processes associated with Alzheimer’s disease.

STUDY PROCEDURES 
 
Study participants must arrive at clinic visits following an overnight (8 hour) 
fast to collect clinical lab samples in a fasted state.  A separate clinic visit 
within the protocol-allowed visit window may also be utilized for collecting 
fasting clinical lab samples. 
 
Anti-diabetic medication, if normally taken in the morning, should be withheld 
the morning of clinic visits and taken at the same time as the meal or snack. 
 
Following fasted blood sampling, the subject must consume a low 
carbohydrate / high protein meal or snack prior to the rest of the study 
procedures, if performed on the same day.  The time of finishing the 
meal/snack must be documented in the source documents. 
 
An on-site point of care blood glucose measurement must be obtained prior to 
neuropsychological assessments and documented in the source documents.   
 
If subject is hypoglycemic (<90mg/dL), feed the subject (again) and 
re-check blood sugar prior to neuropsychological assessments.  
 
If 
subject 
is 
hyperglycemic 
(>300mg/dL), 
reschedule 
the 
neuropsychological assessments for a proximal day within the visit 
window. 
 
Cognitive/functional assessments must be performed following the meal/snack 
and blood glucose measurement, during a study visit.   
 
It is required that cognitive/functional assessments be performed with the 
subject in the following order:  MMSE, ADAS-cog, patient portion of the CDR 
when administered on the same day.  The same rater should follow a particular 
subject for any given assessment for the duration of the study whenever 
possible.   
 
Dosing should occur in the clinic on study visit days from the newly dispensed 
study medication supply.  If the subject has already dosed with study drug on 
the clinic day, they should not be dosed in the clinic. The study drug will be 
dispensed and the subject instructed to dose at home the following day

according to their usual schedule. This will be documented in source 
documents and be listed as a minor protocol deviation. 
6.1 
SCREENING / Part 1 and Part 2 
For logistical purposes, up to 60 days will be allowed for screening to confirm that 
participants meet all selection criteria for the study.  It is strongly encouraged that 
the screening period is minimized to the shortest possible duration whenever 
possible.  The investigator (or an appropriate delegate at the investigator site) will 
obtain informed consent from each subject, caregiver/informant, and when 
appropriate, legally authorized representative in accordance with Subject 
Information and Informed Consent/Assent (where this is in accordance with local 
laws, regulations and ethics committee policy).  The screening assessments may be 
separated out into more than one visit if required.  Refer to the Schedule of Events 
for a tabular presentation for screening activities (Table 1, Table 2). 
The following activities will be completed: 
 
Complete informed consent/assent process (where this is in accordance with 
local laws, regulations and ethics committee policy) resulting in a signed 
ICF(s) by the appropriate parties. 
 
Assign screening identification number. 
 
Fasting blood and urine specimens for safety laboratory tests (serum 
chemistry, hematology, UA) will be collected, in addition to the following: 
 
Plasma glucose and HbA1c 
 
Hepatitis screens (including hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis B core 
antibody, hepatitis B surface antibody, and hepatitis C antibody) 
 
Thyroid function (T3, T4, and TSH) 
 
Vitamin B12 
 
Serum FSH concentrations in all female participants to confirm post- 
menopausal status and eligibility regarding non-child bearing potential 


 
Review of inclusion and exclusion criteria. 
 
Brain MRI should be performed at least 14 days prior to Month 0/Day 1 dosing 
to allow time for central read; the MRI may also include gadolinium contrast 
if determined to be appropriate by the investigator. For subjects with a 
contraindication to MRI scanning (e.g. pacemaker), a CT scan will fulfill the 
requirements for assessing subject eligibility.  Use of contrast is allowed upon 
investigator discretion. 
Re-screening of a Participant 
Participants who had been screened and failed to join the study based on the 
following reasons are allowed to re-screen if the subject is beyond the original 
60-day screening window.  A re-screening subject must receive a new screening ID.   
Participants do not have to repeat the MRI if dosing occurs within 90 days from the 
initial screening MRI. 
 
Participants with Vitamin B12 below the normal limits at initial screening. 
 
Participants must subsequently have been taking Vitamin B12 for at least 
4 weeks after initial screen failure and have repeat B12 level within the normal 
range.   
 
Participants who are not on a stable dose of anti-diabetic therapy for at least 
60 days prior to Screening may rescreen once they have reached at least 
60 days of stable dosing. 
 
Participants who are not on a stable dose of dementia therapy for at least 
60 days prior to Screening may rescreen once they have reached at least 
60 days of stable dosing. 


The time to rescreen a subject is up to the investigator but in any case, may not 
be within 3 months with no upper time limit. They may rescreen only once. 
Subjects who score out of range are considered a screen fail, even if they are 
planning to rescreen.    
 
Subjects who did not complete the screening procedures within the protocol-
specified 60-day window may rescreen. 
 
Subjects who have a Screening HbA1c outside of the eligible range may re-test

If it is necessary to extend the 7-day period for any other reason (e.g., schedule 
conflicts, patient/caregiver/informant illness, inclement weather) the Sponsor should 
be contacted for approval and the visit window may be extended up to 7 days.  In 
this case, re-review of the inclusion/exclusion criteria and concomitant medications 
should occur within 7 days prior to the first dose to ensure that the patient continues 
to be appropriate for the study.  Other baseline procedures may be repeated at the 
discretion of the Investigator but are not required.  The 60-day period from screening 
to first dose remains in effect.  Should the overall screening time exceed 60 days, 
re-screening is required.

Part 2 / Early Termination 
In the event a subject discontinues participation prior to completion of the Month 18 
Visit and less than 45 days have elapsed since the subject’s last dose of study drug, 
the Early Termination Visit should be completed performing the study procedures 
as follows.  In all cases, a Follow-up Visit (as described in Section 6.3.10) should be 
performed approximately 3 months after the last dose of study drug.  However, if a

SUBJECT WITHDRAWAL 
Participants may withdraw from the study at any time at their own request or the 
request of their study partner, caregiver/informant/guardian, or they may be 
withdrawn at any time at the discretion of the Investigator or Sponsor for safety, 
behavioral, compliance, or administrative reasons.  If a participant does not return 
for a scheduled visit, every effort should be made to contact the participant including 
certified letter, return receipt requested.  The investigator should inquire about the 
reason for withdrawal, request that the participant return all unused investigational 
product(s), request that the participant return for any remaining clinic visits.

Page 78 
If the participant withdraws from the study and joins another clinical study or does 
not wish to complete the remaining clinic visits, an Early Termination and/or 
Follow-up Visit should be performed as follows: 
 
An Early Termination should be performed if less than 45 days have elapsed 
since the subject’s last dose of study drug.   
 
A Follow-up Visit should be performed when ≥ 45 days have elapsed since the 
subject’s last dose of study drug. 
Continued follow-up with the participant may be required if there are any unresolved 
adverse events (refer to Section 8.7). 
If the participant withdraws from the study, and also withdraws consent for 
disclosure of future information, no further evaluations should be performed, and no 
additional data should be collected.  The Sponsor may retain and continue to use any 
data collected before such withdrawal of consent.  An individual patient enrolled in 
the trial may be discontinued from dosing (and continue in the study) based on a 
specific adverse event profile as recommended by either the IDMC and/or the 
Sponsor in discussions with the PI.  The IDMC or the Sponsor may temporarily stop 
dosing of enrolled subjects and/or additional enrollment of new patients at any time 
and may permanently terminate the study at any time. 
Any emergent medical condition or safety finding that, in the opinion of the 
Investigator, may jeopardize the participant’s safety if he/she continues dosing will 
be sufficient reason to discontinue dosing (temporarily or permanently), while the 
participant continues in the study. The participant should be followed as indicated 
for the AE until resolved, declared stable or the participant is lost to follow up.  
Safety data will be obtained from the physical and neurological examination, vital 
signs, routine laboratory tests, ECG, and neuropsychological testing batteries.  Once 
resolved, the Investigator and Medical Monitor may discuss if it would be 
appropriate to re-start dosing.

SAFETY AND TOLERABILITY 
7.1.1 
Body Measurements 
Height (cm) will be measured at the Screening Visit, without shoes. 
Body weight (kg) will be measured on the same scale without shoes, coats, or 
sweaters. 
BMI will be calculated as body weight (kg) / height (m) 2.   
7.1.2 
Vital Signs 
Vital signs measurements will consist of blood pressure and pulse rate while the 
participant is supine.  Vital signs will be conducted at all the study visits.  Participant 
should have been supine at least 5 minutes prior to vital signs determination.  At 
Baseline, pre-dose measurements will be performed in triplicate; all other vital signs 
readings (at time points shown in the Schedule of Activities) will be a single 
measurement.  The baseline triplicate readings for blood pressure will be averaged 
for eligibility determination. 
7.1.3 
Electrocardiogram 
12–lead ECG should be recorded after participants have been resting at least 
5 minutes in the supine position.  Digital ECG tracings will be performed using 
equipment from and analyzed by a central ECG laboratory.  The cardiologist reading 
the ECGs will be blinded regarding study drug assignment.  All standard intervals 
will be measured. 
When assessing eligibility at the Screening visit, the presence of BBB (either left or 
right) is allowable as long as the absolute QTcF value does not exceed 500 msec and 
the subject does not have any other cardiac exclusions as described in exclusion 
criterion 19.  When an ECG displays a paced rhythm indicating a functioning 
pacemaker is present, there is no upper QTcF limit as long as there are no related 
cardiac exclusions (reference exclusion criterion 20).  Note: If there is no known

Page 80 
history of BBB (either right or left), the discovery of such should prompt further 
investigation prior to proceeding with screening.  
At the Baseline visit, the participant will have an ECG obtained (in triplicate) in 
order to verify continued eligibility for the study.  If the QTcF is >470 msec is 
determined based on the average of the 3 QTcFs obtained from the local reading, a 
subject should not be dosed, pending central reading of the ECG.   
When the site receives the Baseline Visit Central ECG Laboratory reading(s), if 
QTcF is confirmed as exclusionary (using the criteria immediately above), the 
subject should be excluded. If the central reading does not confirm the exclusion, 
the patient may be dosed as soon as convenient/possible.  If a patient was dosed 
based on local reading that determined to be acceptable (using the criteria above) 
and the central reading is nevertheless determined to be exclusionary, the site should 
contact the Sponsor for guidance on how to proceed. 
At any time during the study, a subject with any of the above ECG values should 
prompt a call to the Sponsor for guidance on how to proceed.  
7.1.4 
Physical Examination 
Complete physical examination will include skin, eyes, ears, nose and throat, 
cardiac, respiratory, abdomen, and extremities.  Complete physical examination will 
be conducted at the Screening visit.  Brief physical examination will include skin, 
eyes, oral mucosa, cardiac, and respiratory, and a directed exam related to any 
reported AEs.  A brief physical examination will be conducted at all the study visits.  
Body weight will be also examined at all study visits. 
Clinically relevant findings noted at Screening will be considered medical history.  
Any treatment emergent new finding on brief physical examination will be 
documented as an adverse event.    
7.1.5 
Neurological Examination 
Complete neurological examination will include cortical function, meningeal 
irritation assessment, cranial nerves, motor and sensory function, coordination, deep

 
Hepatitis screens include hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis B core antibody, 
hepatitis B surface antibody, and hepatitis C antibody.  
 
Minimum requirement for urine drug testing includes: cocaine, THC, opiates, 
benzodiazepines and amphetamines. 
7.1.6.2 
Assessment of Blood Glucose Using Point of Care Device 
An on-site point of care blood glucose measurement must be obtained prior to 
neuropsychological assessments.  The point of care blood glucose measurement 
should be obtained after an appropriate time following the low carbohydrate / high 
protein meal or snack (e.g., 30-60 minutes).  The blood glucose measurement 
obtained using the point of care device will only be documented in the source 
documents and used to determine if it is appropriate to proceed with 
neuropsychological assessments.   
The blood glucose measurement from the central laboratory will be the measurement 
included in the study database. 
7.1.6.3 
Assessment of Potential Cases of Drug Induced Liver Injury 
Abnormal values in aspartate transaminase (AST) and/or alanine transaminase 
(ALT) concurrent with abnormal elevations in total bilirubin that meet the criteria 
outlined below, in the absence of other causes of liver injury, are considered 
potential cases of drug-induced liver injury.  These events should be considered 
important medical events and reported as serious adverse events. 
Participants who present with the following laboratory abnormalities should be 
evaluated further to definitively determine the etiology of the abnormal laboratory 
values: 
a. Participants with AST or ALT baseline values within the normal range who 
subsequently present with AST or ALT ≥3 times the upper limit of normal 
concurrent with a total bilirubin ≥2 times the upper limit of normal with no 
evidence of 1) hemolysis,  2) cholestasis (elevated  alkaline phosphatase 
≥2 times the upper limit of normal or not available) or 3) Gilbert’s Syndrome 
(common benign condition associated with intermittent elevations of primarily 
indirect, unconjugated, bilirubin to about 2 X upper limit of normal.)

Page 83 
b. Participants with pre-existing AST or ALT baseline values above the normal 
range who subsequently present with AST or ALT ≥2 times the baseline values 
and ≥3 times the upper limit of normal concurrent with a total bilirubin ≥2 times 
the upper limit of normal with no evidence of 1) hemolysis,  2) cholestasis 
(elevated  alkaline phosphatase ≥2 times the upper limit of normal or not 
available) or 3) Gilbert’s Syndrome (common benign condition associated with 
intermittent elevations of primarily indirect, unconjugated, bilirubin to about 2 X 
upper limit of normal.) 
Increases defined above should be confirmed with repeat testing within 48 to 
72 hours.   In addition to repeating AST and ALT, laboratory tests should include 
albumin, amylase, creatine kinase, total bilirubin, direct and indirect bilirubin, 
gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), international normalized ratio (INR) and 
alkaline phosphatase.  Symptoms should be assessed.  The medical monitor should 
be contacted to discuss the patient’s condition. 
Close observation should be immediately initiated if symptoms persist and/or repeat 
testing confirm the abnormalities described above.  Evaluation should include 
repeating laboratory tests (two or three time weekly; frequency may decrease to once 
a week or less if abnormalities stabilize or trial drug is discontinued and the subject 
is asymptomatic), and a detailed medical history and physical assessment.  A 
detailed history, including relevant information, such as history of symptoms or 
concurrent illnesses, concomitant medication use (including review of 
acetaminophen use and herbal/dietary supplements), alcohol consumption, 
recreational drug use and special diets.  Additionally, family history, sexual history, 
travel history, history of contact with a jaundiced subject, surgery, blood transfusion, 
history of liver or allergic disease, and work exposure, should be collected.  Ruling 
out acute hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E infection, autoimmune or alcoholic hepatitis, 
NASH, hypoxic/ischemic hepatopathy, Epstein-Barr virus, cytomegalovirus, herpes 
simplex virus, toxoplasmosis, varicella, parvovirus and biliary tract disease (gall 
bladder/ductal imaging may be warranted). 
All cases confirmed on repeat testing, with no other cause for LFT abnormalities 
identified at the time should be considered potential drug induced liver injury 
irrespective of availability of all the results of the investigations performed to 
determine etiology of the abnormal LFTs.

7.2 
NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENTS 
The following cognitive/functional/global test batteries will be conducted at selected 
time points as described below and in the Schedule of Activities.   
If a participant presents at any visit with any condition that, in the opinion of the 
investigator, 
may 
jeopardize 
the 
accurate 
evaluation 
of 
participant’s 
neuropsychological function, participants should not receive neuropsychological 
tests, and reserve an additional visit to evaluate function within the allowance of the 
visit window.   
Neuropsychological assessments must not be performed if the patient is fasting; 
neuropsychological assessments should be performed following the meal/snack and 
blood glucose measurement, during a study visit.  The same rater should follow a 
particular participant for any given assessment for the duration of the study 
whenever possible.  The scales are to be administered to the subject in the following 
order when they occur at the same visit:  MMSE, ADAS-cog, CDR (patient portion), 
C-SSRS.  All neuropsychological assessments must be performed by a trained rater.   
 
Non-CDR Rater – This person will meet the education, clinical and scale 
experience requirements set by the sponsor.  This person can conduct all ratings 
and assessments, once qualified by the rater training staff, except for the CDR.  
If appropriately qualified, the PI or Study Coordinator may also fulfill this role. 
 
CDR Rater – This person will render the CDR rating based on clinical 
assessment of participant and caregiver / study partner, using scale worksheets 
provided by the Sponsor, but without access to the ADAS-cog or any other study 
assessments.  Neither the PI nor the Study Coordinator responsible for study 
oversight may fulfill this role. 
7.2.1 
Cognitive Assessments 
Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE): The MMSE is a brief 30-point test that is 
used to assess cognition (Folstein, 1975).  It is commonly used to screen for 
dementia. In the time span of about 10 minutes, it samples various functions, 
including arithmetic, memory and orientation.  The MMSE will be administered 
according to the Schedule of Activities in Table 1 and Table 2.  Scores range from 
84

Page 85 
0-30 with lower scores indicating greater cognitive impairment.  Participants with 
scores of 21-26 at Screening and scores of 19-27 at Baseline will be eligible for 
participation in the study.  The MMSE must always be administered in a fed state. 
Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale - Cognitive Subscale 90 point 
(ADAS-cog14):  The 14-Item Alzheimer’s Disease Assessment Scale - Cognitive 
Subscale (ADAS-cog14) is a structured scale (approximately 45 minutes to 
complete) that evaluates memory, orientation, attention, reasoning, language, 
constructional praxis, delayed recall, digit cancellation, and maze-completion.  The 
ADAS-cog14 scoring range is from 0 to 90, with higher scores indicating greater 
cognitive impairment (Mohs et al. 1997).  The ADAS-cog will be administered 
according to the Schedule of Activities in Table 1 and Table 2.  Participants with 
scores of ≥10 at Screening and Baseline will be eligible for participation in the 
study.  The ADAS-cog must always be administered when the subject is in a fed 
state. 
7.2.2 
Functional/Global Assessments 
Functional Activities Questionnaire (FAQ):  The FAQ is an inventory of 
instrumental activities of daily living developed by (Pfeffer 1982).  The FAQ is 
administered by asking the informant to rate patient’s ability (0-3) on 10 different 
activities of daily living.  The total FAQ score ranges from 0 to 30, with higher 
scores indicating greater functional loss.  The FAQ will be administered according 
to the Schedule of Activities in Table 1 and Table 2.   
Amsterdam-Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Questionnaire (A-IADL):  The 
A-IADL is an adaptive questionnaire designed to assess impairments in instrumental 
activities of daily living in early dementia.(Sikkes 2013)  The questionnaire is 
completed by a caregiver / informant.  The original questionnaire consists of 70 
items in seven categories and the administration time is approximately 20-25 
minutes. The A-IADL total score is calculated using an item response theory method 
of scoring and lower scores indicate greater functional impairment.  The A-IADL 
will be administered according to the Schedule of Activities in Table 1 and Table 2. 
Clinical Dementia Rating Scale (CDR): The CDR scale is used as a global measure 
of dementia and is completed by a clinician in the setting of detailed knowledge of 
the individual patient collected from interviews with the caregiver (first) and patient 
85

Page 86 
(second).(Berg, 1988)  The CDR describes 5 degrees of impairment in performance 
on each of 6 categories including memory, orientation, judgment and problem 
solving, community affairs, home and hobbies, and personal care.  The interview 
takes approximately 40 minutes to administer. 
CDR global ratings are 0 for cognitively unimpaired individuals, 0.5 for 
questionable dementia and 1, 2 and 3 for mild, moderate and severe dementia as 
defined in the CDR scale.  The scores for each category can also be summed and this 
is known as the sum of box score (CDR-SB).  Sum of box scores range from 0 to 18 
with higher scores indicating greater cognitive impairment. 
The CDR will be administered according to the Schedule of Activities in Table 1 
and Table 2 and the subject must in a fed state. 
7.2.3 
Other Assessments 
Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI): The NPI is a well-validated, reliable, multi-item 
instrument to assess psychopathology in AD based on an interview with the 
caregiver.(Cummings 1994)  The interview is also relatively brief (15 minutes).  It 
evaluates both the frequency and severity of 12 behavioral areas including delusions, 
hallucinations, dysphoria (depression) anxiety, agitation/aggression, euphoria, 
disinhibition, irritability, lability, apathy, aberrant motor behavior, appetite and 
eating changes and night-time behaviors. 
Frequency assessments range from 1 (occasionally, less than once per week) to 
4 (very frequently, once or more per day or continuously) as well as severity (1= 
mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe).  Distress is rated by the study partner or caregiver 
and ranges from 0 (no distress) to 5 (very severe or extreme).  The overall score and 
the score for each subscale are the product of severity and frequency.  Scores range 
from 0-144 with higher scores indicating a greater presence of neuropsychiatric 
symptoms.  The NPI will be administered according to the Schedule of Activities in 
Table 2.   
Dementia Quality of Life (DEMQOL) – Proxy: The DEMQOL-Proxy questionnaire 
is a validated and reliable questionnaire that is interview administered and completed 
by the caregiver about the patient’s health related quality of life.(Smith 2005)  It 
consists of 31 items representing 5 domains (daily activities and looking after

yourself, health and well-being, cognitive functioning, social relationships, and self-
concept) and takes approximately 20 minutes to complete.  Higher scores indicate 
better health related quality of life.  This scale will be administered at according to 
the Schedule of Activities in Table 2.   
7.3 
SUICIDALITY ASSESSMENTS 
The Columbia Suicide Severity rating Scale (C-SSRS) is a joint interview with the 
caregiver and patient that systemically assesses suicidal ideation and suicidal 
behavior.(Posner 2011)  This scale will be administered at Screening Visit to 
evaluate life time suicide attempt, suicide behaviors, and other non-suicidal 
self-injuries.  The CSSRS must be administered by a certified rater.  Positive 
responses on the C-SSRS will be mapped to the Columbia Classification Algorithm 
of Suicide Assessment (C-CASA) for classification and reporting using a standard 
algorithm. 
At the Screening and Baseline Visit, the C-SSRS will be used to detect possible 
suicidality prior to dosing.  If the patient’s responses indicate: (1) the subject may 
have had suicide ideation associated with actual intent and/or plan in the past year, 
(2) any history of suicidal behavior in the past 10 years, (3) any lifetime history of 
recurrent suicidal behavior the subject should be excluded.  In the event that the 
subject answers “Yes” to the suicidal ideation items 4 or 5 of the C-SSRS or a history 
of suicidal behavior within the previous 10 years as indicated by a “yes” answer to 
any of the suicidal behavior items of the C-SSRS at the screening or baseline visit, 
that subject will not be eligible for inclusion in the study.  
Following dosing, the C-SSRS will be used to assess suicide ideation or behavior at 
each study visit.  Following dosing (after the Baseline / Randomization visit), if there 
are “yes” answers on items 4, 5 or on any behavioral question of the C-SSRS, a 
professional suicide risk assessment must be done as soon as possible to determine 
whether it is safe for the subject to continue participation in the trial.  A risk 
assessment will be done by an independent, qualified mental health professional with 
expertise in the evaluation of suicidality in the elderly (e.g., psychiatrist, geriatrician 
or neurologist specializing in treatment of patients with AD) to determine whether 
it is safe for the subject to participate in the study.  Neither the PI nor any member 
of the PI staff may conduct this interview.  A change from baseline to a yes on any 
of these items will also constitute an AE and must be documented as such.

PLASMA FOR ANALYSIS OF AZELIRAGON AND METABOLITE 
CONCENTRATIONS 
Blood samples for pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis of azeliragon and metabolite 
concentrations will be collected according to the Schedule of Activities in Table 1 
and Table 2. 
All PK Blood samples to provide plasma for pharmacokinetic analysis will be 
collected, processed, stored, and shipped according the lab manual instructions. 
Samples will be analyzed using a validated analytical method. 
The shipment address and assay lab’s contact information will be provided to the 
investigator site prior to initiation of the trial. 
7.5 
PLASMA FOR ANALYSIS OF TOTAL A, A (1-40), A(1-42) 
Blood samples for plasma biomarkers analysis will be collected according to the 
Schedule of Activities in Table 1 and Table 2. 
Blood samples for plasma biomarkers will be collected, processed, stored, and 
shipped according the lab manual instructions. 
7.6 
MRI 
MRI scans will be performed at Screening in Part 1 and at Screening and Month 18 
/ Early Termination in Part 2.  MRI scans will be read by a central reader prior to 
inclusion in the study to detect any exclusionary conditions such as stroke, 
hematoma, or intracranial tumor.  The screening MRI should be performed at least 
14 days prior to dosing to allow for the central read and interpretation of results prior 
to dosing.  A local read is not required.  Outside or prior MRI scans will not suffice 
for inclusion. 
Specific MRI scan sequences required for safety and/or volumetric assessments will 
be outlined in the MRI procedures manual.  Participants will be monitored, and 
images will be reacquired if there is subject movement during the scan.  Volume,

surface area, and thickness values for all Freesurfer-generated regions will be 
assessed.   
Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may include gadolinium contrast if the 
investigator determines that this is necessary for patient care either based on clinical 
signs or findings on the non-contrast MRI.  Gadolinium may also be used when 
considered the standard operating procedure for the study site.  Gadolinium should 
not be administered if the glomerular filtration rate <30 mL/min or equivalent 
creatinine clearance.  However, this decision may be made by the PI on the basis of 
a change in the clinical status or may be done in response to a possible abnormality 
seen on the non-contrast brain MRI. 
An MRI Imaging CRO will be responsible for standardizing the acquisition, training 
the MRI sites on the imaging protocol, ensuring equipment and image QA/QC and 
for overseeing a centralized read of the data.  To ensure proper equipment and image 
QA/QC, the MRI Imaging CRO will have the MRI sites scan a phantom.  Detailed 
procedures for obtaining and processing the MRI, conducting image QA/QC and 
endpoint analysis will be developed in study specific documents and provided as 
appropriate to the investigators, MR technicians, CRO personnel and endpoint 
readers. 
Analysis of whole brain, ventricular, and hippocampal volumes will be conducted 
by a centralized reader(s) who will be blinded to subject treatment. 
7.7 
CT SCANS 
A head CT scan may be accepted for evaluation of the eligibility criteria on a case-
by-case basis, as approved by the Sponsor (e.g., when MRI is contraindicated for the 
subject).  The head CT must be suitable for central review and submitted for central 
review based on instructions in the MRI procedures manual. 
Subjects whose screening assessment was based on a CT scan will not undergo a 
follow-up CT scan (Part 2 only) and will not contribute to the MRI volumetric 
analyses (Part 2 only).

An Imaging CRO will be responsible for providing guidance on the imaging 
procedure.  Sites will be advised to acquire the CT per their standard clinical 
practice.  Scans will be reviewed by the Imaging CRO central reader.   
7.8 
APOE GENOTYPING 
A blood sample will be taken at Baseline for ApoE genotyping.  Results of ApoE 
genotyping will be retained in the trial database, with participants identified only by 
a study participant identification number.  Individual results of ApoE genotyping 
will not be disseminated outside the Sponsor, including the study site, except as 
required by law. 
7.9 
BLOOD SAMPLING FOR STORAGE AND RETENTION 
A blood sample will be collected according to the Schedule of Activities in Table 1 
and Table 2.   Blood samples for whole blood and plasma storage/retention will be 
collected, processed, stored, and shipped according the lab manual instructions. 
Samples will be stored for up to 2 years following study closure for potential future 
analysis for plasma biomarkers associated with AGEs, RAGE expression, or RAGE 
antagonist response that may be identified during the course of the trial. 
Instructions on collection, processing, storage and shipment of the sample will be 
provided in a separate laboratory manual.

ADVERSE EVENT REPORTING 
8.1 
ADVERSE EVENTS 
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study 
participant administered a pharmaceutical product.  Study drug treatment does not 
necessarily have a causal relationship with the AE.  An AE, therefore, can be any 
unfavorable change in structure, function or chemistry (including abnormal clinical 
lab results, or ECG findings), symptoms, signs, or diseases temporally associated 
with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the 
medicinal (investigational) product, as defined by ICH. 
The criteria for determining whether an abnormal objective test finding should be 
reported as an adverse event are as follows: 
 
Test result is associated with accompanying symptoms, and/or 
 
Test result requires additional diagnostic testing or medical/surgical 
intervention, and/or 
 
Test result leads to a change in study dosing or discontinuation from the study, 
significant additional concomitant drug treatment, or other therapy, and/or 
 
Test result is considered to be an adverse event by the investigator or sponsor.  
Repeating an abnormal test, in the absence of any of the above conditions, does not 
constitute an adverse event.  Any abnormal test result that is determined to be an 
error does not require reporting as an adverse event. 
8.2 
REPORTING PERIOD 
Adverse event reporting will commence as soon as the study participant has been 
dosed, unless the event is deemed to be related to study procedures.  The 
study-related procedure might include discontinuation from or decrease in current 
therapy, a study-specific assessment or scale, or a study-specific procedure.  Events 
associated with such study- specific procedures prior to initial administration of 
study drug will be tracked as AEs from the time when the study participant signed 
the ICF. 
92

Azeliragon (TTP488) 
vTv Therapeutics LLC 
 
4170 Mendenhall Oaks Pkwy 
TTP488-305 
High Point, NC 27265 
 
 
 
Page 93 
SAE reporting will commence from the time the participant provides informed 
consent through last subject visit.  Any SAE occurring after the reporting period 
must be promptly reported if a causal relationship to study treatment is suspected. 
All events, including pre-existing conditions that are not associated with 
study-specific procedures, which worsen after the study participant has signed the 
ICF, but occur prior to initial administration of study drug, are not considered AEs 
and will be captured under medical history.  However, worsening of such conditions 
after initial administration of study drug will be designated as AEs. 
8.3 
ASSESSMENT OF SEVERITY 
The following definitions of severity should be used in the evaluation of AEs: 
 
Mild: an AE that is easily tolerated and does not interfere with a subject’s usual 
function or daily activities. 
 
Moderate: an AE that is sufficiently discomforting so as to interfere to some 
extent with a subject’s usual function or daily activities. 
 
Severe: an AE that interferes significantly or prevents a subject’s usual 
function or normal everyday activity. 
The adjective selected should describe the maximum intensity of the adverse event. 
8.4 
ASSESSMENT OF RELATIONSHIP TO STUDY DRUG 
The Investigator’s assessment of causality must be provided for all adverse events 
(serious and non-serious) and recorded in the eCRF.  An Investigator’s causality 
assessment is the determination of whether there exists a reasonable possibility that 
the investigational product caused or contributed to an adverse event.  If the 
Investigator does not know whether or not investigational product caused the event, 
then the event will be handled as “related to investigational product” for reporting 
purposes, as defined by the Sponsor.  If the investigator's causality assessment is 
"unknown but not related to investigational product", this should be clearly 
documented on study records.

Page 94 
The following definitions of relationship to study drug should be used to characterize 
the suspected causality of each AE, based on the Principal Investigator 's or licensed 
physician consideration of all available information: 
 
Related: There is evidence to suggest a causal relationship between the study 
drug and the AE.   
 
Not Related: The AE is not reasonably related to the study drug if there is not 
a reasonable possibility that the study drug may have caused the event, i.e., 
there is no evidence or arguments to suggest a causal relationship. 
8.5 
SERIOUS ADVERSE EVENTS 
A serious adverse event (SAE) is any AE that is fatal or life-threatening (see below), 
results in persistent or significant disability (see below) or incapacity, requires 
inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of an existing hospitalization, or is a 
congenital anomaly/birth defect. 
Other important medical events that may not result in death, be life-threatening or 
require hospitalization should also be considered SAEs when, based upon 
appropriate medical judgment, they may jeopardize the study participant and may 
require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above.  
Examples of such medical events include allergic bronchospasm requiring intensive 
treatment in an emergency room or at home or convulsions that do not result in 
inpatient hospitalization. 
8.5.1 
Life Threatening Adverse Event 
A life-threatening AE is any AE that, in the view of the Principal Investigator, places 
the subject at immediate risk of death from the reaction as it occurred.  A 
life-threatening AE would not be an AE that, had it occurred in a more serious form, 
might have caused death.  
8.5.2 
Disability 
Disability is defined as a substantial disruption of a person's ability to conduct 
normal life functions.

8.5.3 
Unexpected Adverse Event 
An unexpected adverse drug experience is defined as “any adverse drug experience, 
the specificity or severity of which is not consistent with the current IB. For example, 
under this definition, hepatic necrosis would be unexpected (by virtue of greater 
severity) if the IB only referred to elevated hepatic enzymes or hepatitis. Similarly, 
cerebral thromboembolism and cerebral vasculitis would be unexpected (by virtue 
of greater specificity) if the IB only listed cerebral vascular accidents. Unexpected, 
as used in this definition, refers to an adverse drug experience that has not been 
previously observed (e.g., included in the IB), rather than from the perspective of 
such experience not being anticipated from the pharmacological properties of the 
pharmaceutical product. 
Unexpected adverse events should be reported to the IRB/ Research Ethics Board 
(REB) as per IRB/REB reporting requirements. 
8.6 
DOCUMENTATION OF ADVERSE EVENTS 
The condition of each study subject will be monitored throughout the study. Signs 
and symptoms of possible AEs may be observed by the staff, elicited by asking an 
open or indirect question (e.g., “How have you been feeling?”) or volunteered by the 
subject. All AEs, whether observed by the Investigator or clinical site staff, elicited 
from the subject, or volunteered by the subject, will be recorded on the adverse event 
page(s) of the CRF.  Data will include start and end dates, concomitant medications 
given for AE, Investigator-specified severity, relationship to study drug, and action 
taken.  All AEs should be reported to the study Sponsor. 
8.7 
REPORTING REQUIREMENTS 
Follow-up of any ongoing AE (including any clinically significant laboratory 
abnormality) should be conducted as follows: 
 
If the Investigator determines the AE is not related to the study product or 
study procedures, the AE will be followed until resolution, declared stable, or 
until the end of study participation.

Page 96 
 
All AEs with a relationship of related will be followed until resolution, 
declared stable, or until the subject is lost to follow-up. 
At the discretion of the Investigator or designated licensed physician and Medical 
Monitor, the length of AE follow-up may be attenuated, with written rationale by 
the Investigator or designated licensed physician. 
8.7.1 
Serious Adverse Events Reporting Requirements 
Knowledge of a SAE occurring or worsening in a subject at any time during the trial 
must be reported within 24 hours to the Sponsor / Sponsor Representative.  The site 
is responsible for reporting the event to the relevant IRB/REB in accordance with 
the IRB or REB’s specific requirements for reporting SAEs.  The Principal 
Investigator or designee should not wait to receive additional or follow-up 
information before an initial notification is made to the Sponsor. 
Instructions related to SAE reporting, along with reporting forms and Sponsor 
contact information will be provided by the Sponsor to the Study Site and should be 
maintained in the Study Site File (SSF). 
Reports relative to the subject’s subsequent course must be submitted to the Safety 
Monitor until the event has subsided or, in the case of permanent impairment, until 
the condition stabilizes. These reports need not be submitted within 24 hours of first 
knowledge of each item of new information, unless the new information results in a 
change in diagnosis or represents a significant worsening of the subject’s condition. 
At any time following the study, the PI or designee should immediately notify the 
Sponsor and the IRB/REB if he/she learns of the occurrence of any death or 
malignancy involving the participant of a clinical trial or of any congenital anomaly 
in an offspring of a participant.

DATA ANALYSIS/STATISTICAL METHODS 
The statistical considerations summarized in this section describe the protocol-
defined plan for data analysis of this study.  A final and complete Statistical Analysis 
Plan (SAP) will be finalized prior to unblinding the data from the learning stage of 
the study (Part 1), possibly updated prior to unblinding the confirmatory stage of the 
study (Part 2). The SAP will supersede the protocol. Any deviations from the 
planned analyses will be described and justified in the final integrated study report. 
This trial describes two studies (learning stage and confirming stage) with a common 
infrastructure in a single protocol. Statistical analysis of the clinical efficacy 
variables will be done for each of the study studies separately. Analysis of MRI 
volumetric data only applies to part 2 of the study. Statistical evaluation of adverse 
events will be done by each part separately and also integrated for the study as a 
whole. Statistical analysis of safety measures that are collected by visit will be done 
for the study as a whole (combined). 
Continuous variables will be presented showing number of observations available, 
mean, median, minimum, maximum, 1st and 3rd quartiles, and standard deviations 
(or standard errors, depending on the variable) by visit. Categorical variables will be 
presented showing frequencies and percentages by visit. 
All tests will be 2-sided and use an overall study-wise α = 0.05 unless otherwise 
stated. SAS Version 9.4 or later will be used.  Medical dictionary for Regulatory 
Activities (MedDRA) Version 21.0 or later will be used for coding adverse events.  
Medications will be coded using WHO Drug Dictionary (WHODD) Version 
March 2018 or later. 
This study features a conditional sequential approach to hypothesis testing to control 
alpha, similar to methods using Bauer closed procedures. 
9.1 
POTENTIAL ADAPTIVE FEATURES 
This study is planned to conform to regulatory guidance depicted in the FDA 
guidance Adaptive Designs for Clinical Trials of Drugs and Biologics (draft 
guidance, September 2018).

Part 1 of the study will inform the selection of a functional endpoint to serve as 
co-primary in Part 2, as well as the sample size required to adequately power the 
study to detect treatment effect on cognitive and functional measures in the study 
population.   
Consistent with the FDA draft guidance on adaptive designs, it is acknowledged that 
interim analysis is common in trials, and it includes blinded analysis or unblinded 
analysis. In this study, however, Part 1 is intended to be completed, the database 
locked, and the analysis done as a final analysis, thereby avoiding the need for the 
interim analysis.  
The planned features of the confirmatory phase (Part 2) that will be subject to 
modification informed by the learning phase (Part 1) of the study are: 
 
Primary endpoint(s) for Part 2 
 
Sample size for Part 2 
 
Study duration for Part 2 
 
Eligibility criteria for Part 2 
 
Dose of study drug for Part 2 
9.2 
SAMPLE SIZE DETERMINATION 
Sample size considerations for Part 1:  
Assuming a standard deviation of the change from Baseline to Month 6 in 
ADAS-cog14 of 4, using alpha = 0.05, a total sample size of approximately 
82 subjects in balanced allocation (41 subjects per group) provides at least 90% 
power to detect a difference between treatment groups of 2.9 using a 2-sided, 
2-sample t-test.  Assuming a dropout rate of 18% or less, randomization of 
100 subjects provides adequate statistical power for Part 1 to demonstrate superiority 
of azeliragon over placebo based on the ADAS-cog14.

Page 99 
Sample size considerations for Part 2:  
Assuming a standard deviation of the change from Baseline to Month 18 in 
ADAS-cog14 of 7.5, using alpha = 0.049 (to include an adjustment for potential 
alpha inflation due to the independent data monitoring committee reviews), a total 
sample size of 120 subjects in balanced allocation (60 subjects per group) provides 
at least 90% power to detect a difference between treatment groups of 4.5 using a 
2-sided, 2-sample t-test.  Assuming a dropout rate of 25% or less, randomization of 
160 subjects provides adequate statistical power for Part 2 to demonstrate superiority 
of azeliragon over placebo based on the ADAS-cog14. 
9.3 
RANDOMIZATION AND BLINDING 
9.3.1 
RANDOMIZATION 
This protocol includes two independent randomizations for the two stages of the 
adaptive study.  
Subjects will be screened by Investigators or qualified designees to assess eligibility 
for randomization into the study.  An interactive voice response system (IVRS)/ 
interactive web response system (IWRS) will be used for assignment of treatment. 
For each stage of the study, subjects will be enrolled and randomized according to a 
fixed randomization scheme blocked by study investigative site. There is no other 
stratification in the randomization scheme for either stage of the study.  
Randomization will have balanced allocation (1:1) between azeliragon and placebo.  
Dropouts will not be replaced. 
A randomization plan will be developed to guide the programming and security of 
the randomization scheme for this study. 
9.3.2 
BREAKING THE BLIND 
The study will be double-blind.  At the initiation of the study, the study site will be 
instructed on the electronic process for breaking the blind.  Blinding should only be 
broken in emergency situations when knowledge of the treatment assignments is 
99

necessary for subject safety.  Upon breaking the blind, the reason must be 
documented in the electronic data capture system. The sponsor or representative 
should be consulted prior to breaking the blind except in emergency circumstances.  
9.4 
STATISTICAL HYPOTHESES 
The learning stage has a single primary endpoint while the confirming stage of the 
study has two co-primary endpoints. The conditional sequence of hypothesis tests 
applies to both, acknowledging that the imaging endpoints will not exist for the 
learning stage of the study. 
For each stage of this adaptive study, a 2-stage conditional sequence of statistical 
hypothesis tests will be used. The testing sequence will be as follows: 
The first set of hypotheses to be tested is as follows: 
 
H01: The mean change in ADAS-cog14 in the active group active group is 
equal to that of the placebo group. 
 
H11: The mean change in ADAS-cog14 in the active group is not equal (is 
superior) to that of the placebo group. 
Conditional on statistical significance, testing will proceed: 
 
H02: The mean change in CDR-sb in the active group is equal to that of the 
placebo group. 
 
H12: The mean change in CDR-sb in the active group is not equal (is superior) 
to that of the placebo group. 
Conditional on statistical significance, testing will proceed: 
 
H03: The mean change in FAQ in the active group is equal to that of the placebo 
group. 
 
H13: The mean change in FAQ in the active group is not equal (is superior) to 
that of the placebo group.

Conditional on statistical significance within the confirmatory stage, testing will 
proceed: 
 
H02: The mean change in MRI variable of analysis in the active group is equal 
to that of the placebo group. 
 
H12: The mean change in MRI variable of analysis in the active group is not 
equal (is superior) to that of the placebo group. 
9.5 
POPULATIONS OF ANALYSIS 
In accordance with guidance from the International Conference of Harmonization of 
Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) 
guideline ICH E9 Statistical Principles for Clinical Trials (1998), the following 
population of analysis will be used for all statistical analysis: 
 
The full analysis set (FAS) includes all randomized subjects who receive any 
study medication and have at least one post-Baseline assessment. 
 
The per protocol set (PPS) includes all subjects in the FAS, except for those 
who are excluded because of major protocol violations, where a major protocol 
violation is one that may affect the interpretation of study results (e.g., taking 
less than 50% of prescribed study medication during participation). 
Final determinations of the PPS will be made at the masked data review meeting 
held in accordance with ICH E9 prior to the lock data. The complete specification 
(made blinded to treatment arm) will be documented in the minutes to the blind data 
review meeting held prior to lock the data. 
 
The safety set (SAF) includes all subjects who receive any study medication. 
For the purpose of understanding the influence of dropouts on study conclusions, the 
FAS will be partitioned into subjects who complete (completers) and subjects who 
do not complete (dropouts).   
The FAS will be used for all hypothesis tests of efficacy. Analysis of superiority 
using the PPS will also be done for supportive analyses. If the PPS does not differ 
from the FAS by at least 15%, the PPS is considered optional.

primary / co- primary variables: change from baseline in ADAS-cog14 and change 
from baseline in CDR-sb. For all other secondary variables, and subgroup analyses, 
the study as a whole will be used for inferential purposes.

9.7.2 
Statistical Methodology for Primary Analysis 
The primary analysis will use the ITT methodology and a main-effects 
mixed-models for repeated measures (MMRM) methodology. The MMRM will 
utilize an unstructured covariance where the number of parameters is “t(t+1)/2” 
where “t” is the dimension of the covariance matrix, using PROC MIXED in SAS.  
In the unlikely event of lack of convergence, Toeplitz structure will be employed 
where the number of parameters is “t” where “t” is the dimension of the covariance 
matrix. Time is considered as a class variable. Analysis will include treatment, time 
and treatment-by-time interaction as fixed effects, Baseline as covariate, and subject 
as a random effect. Supportive modeling will also include MMRM main-effects 
model with treatment, time, and subject. 
Model assumptions will be evaluated. If the parametric assumptions are evaluated 
as inappropriate or violated, rank analogues will be advanced.

The primary analysis will be done for each stage separately.  Part 1 will use 
alpha = 0.0499, which includes an adjustment of 0.0001 for interim analyses 
performed by the Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC).  The alpha 
adjustment for the IDMC for Part 1 is considered to be negligible, hence, the stated 
alpha for Part 1 is 0.05 for the 100-patient, 6-month trial.  Part 2 will use 
alpha = 0.049, which includes an adjustment of 0.001 for interim analyses performed 
by the Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC), thereby preserving the 
overall study-wise alpha = 0.05.  The alpha adjustment of 0.001 is considered to be 
appropriate for the 200-patient, 18-month study. 
Multiple imputations (MI) will be used as a supportive analysis with 100 invocations 
(acknowledging that more invocations are needed with more missing data). Monte 
Carlo methods are planned. 
An essential component of the thorough analysis includes an assessment of the 
impact of missing data on study conclusions. As a part of assessing this impact, 
supportive analysis will include: 
 
an endpoint analysis (reduction to last-observation-carried-forward, justified 
in this study based on the monotonic progression of the natural course of AD 
and assuming no more dropouts in the group treated with azeliragon than in 
the group treated with placebo) 
 
a completers analysis (observed cases at endpoint) 
 
observed cases by assessment time. 
Interaction terms will be examined in supportive analyses.  In the event of a 
significant interaction term, the impact on analysis conclusion will be examined.  
The primary model will not include interaction terms. A key supportive analysis will 
use the ITT methodology and a main-effects model for ANCOVA adjusting for 
baseline ADAS-cog14 (CDR-sb) using last-observation-carried-forward (LOCF) 
methods for missing data, justified based on known profiles of ADAS-cog14 
(CDR-sb) in AD patients, which is conservative under the assumption that there are 
not more dropouts in the active-treated group than the placebo group. Rank 
ANCOVA will be done as a supportive analysis.

Page 106 
To ensure robustness of analysis conclusions against missingness, multiple 
imputation methods will also be done to cope with missing data as a key supportive 
analysis using the final on-treatment assessment of treatment failures as non-missing 
data at endpoint. 
In accordance with the recommendations of the report from the National Academy 
of Science (NAS) panel “The Prevention and Treatment of Missing Data in Clinical 
Trials,” (National Research Council, 2010), missingness is classified as “missing at 
random” (MAR) or “missing not at random” (MNAR).  When subjects are 
withdrawn due to treatment failure, this event is considered in this sensitivity 
analysis to be MNAR, and the endpoint value is taken as the hard endpoint (not 
imputed) in analysis, operationally, the endpoint analysis is the same as LOCF.   Data 
that are missing for other reasons are considered to be MAR, and standard multiple 
imputation methods are planned. 
Descriptive summaries will be produced of the observed values and change from 
Baseline in co-primary variables by treatment group at each individual time point 
and at endpoint (final on-treatment assessment for each subject). 
For statistical analyses, 95% confidence intervals will be produced for the 
least-squares means (LSM) in each treatment group, as well as the LSM differences 
as compared to placebo.  For MMRM and ANCOVA, two-sided p-values will be 
displayed for the comparison against placebo. 
Because there are limited numbers of subjects per center, there will inadequate 
power to explore impact of the center effect on study conclusion. Descriptive 
statistics by center will be presented. 
The primary analysis controls alpha through the conditional sequence of hypothesis 
testing. No further adjustment for multiplicity is necessary. 
If the PPS differs from the FAS by more than 15%, the analyses will be replicated 
on the PPS.  If the PPS and the FAS do not differ by more than 15%, analysis may 
not be done on the PPS.  Final judgments will be made at the blind data review 
meeting in accordance with ICH E9.

9.7.3 
Statistical Methodology for Secondary and Other Efficacy Analysis 
Secondary and exploratory endpoints that are measurement variables will use similar 
statistical methodology to the methodology used for primary analysis.  Efficacy 
variables that are proportions will be analyzed using Mantel-Haenszel test.  For the 
analysis of the categories for responders, a Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test will be 
used. 
Methodologies for variables that are proportions will include construction of 
confidence intervals for each treatment group and for the difference between groups.  
For analysis, Fisher’s exact test will be used for single-population analysis, and a 
Mantel-Haenszel test will be used for analyses combining data across strata. 
Methodologies for time-to-event variables will include construction of 95% 
confidence intervals for each group separately and for the difference between 
groups.  For analysis, a Wilcoxon test will be used for single-population analysis, 
and a van Elteren test will be used for analyses combining data across strata. 
Subgroup analyses will be done as identified in the SAP. 
Responders based on the ADAS-cog14 total score will be described using 
Kaplan-Meier curves using the specification of responder (lack of decline) provided 
in the SAP.   Also, a graphical representation will be defined where the y-axis will 
show the cumulative percentage of patients who achieved the specific measure of 
improvement in the ADAS-cog14 total score shown on the x-axis with a separate 
cumulative percentage curve for each treatment group. 
If the distribution of any of the above parameters, key secondary, or other secondary 
endpoints does not appear to be normally distributed, the rank analogues will be 
advanced. 
9.7.4 
Subgroup Analyses 
The SAP will include details for subgroup analysis.

9.7.5 
Adjustment for Multiple Comparisons 
Multiplicity of the primary efficacy analyses is controlled by using a conditional 
sequence of hypotheses.  The study will be considered to demonstrate statistical 
significance if the primary analysis has a resulting p-value less than 0.05.  No other 
adjustment for multiplicity is required. 
9.8 
SAFETY ANALYSIS 
The SAF is used for safety analysis.  Adverse events, ECGs, vital signs and safety 
laboratory data will be reviewed and summarized on an ongoing basis during the 
trial to evaluate the safety of participants.

9.8.2 
Statistical Methodology for Safety Analysis 
Adverse events will be coded using MedDRA Version 21.0 or above.  Adverse event 
coding will be done to the lowest level term (LLT).  All treated patients will be 
included in the assessment of safety.  Adverse events will be summarized by 
MedDRA System Organ Class and Preferred Terms.  Separate tabulations will be 
produced for related AEs (those considered by the Investigator as drug related), 
SAEs, discontinuations due to AEs, and severe events. 
Vital signs, ECG results, and laboratory data will be tabulated for changes over time 
on study.   In addition, TEAV and significant findings will be summarized. 
For each post-Baseline assessment, descriptive statistics are provided for the 
assessment value and the change from Baseline to the assessment. 
9.9 
PHARMACODYNAMIC DATA 
All participants with at least one dose of study medication will be included in the 
pharmacodynamic analyses, as appropriate.  For individual endpoints, participants 
must have at least 1 post-dose pharmacodynamic measurement for the given 
endpoint.  For change from Baseline, participants must also have a Baseline value. 
Plasma Aβ (total, 1-40 and 1-42) concentration and cerebral brain volume 
(hippocampus and whole brain, ventricular) versus time will be tabulated and mean 
concentration or brain volume versus time will be plotted for each treatment group.  
Descriptive statistics for raw and change from baseline values will be generated, as 
appropriate.  Maximum and average change from Baseline values will be calculated 
by treatment group. 
The statistical methods will be described in the SAP. 
9.10 
PHARMACOKINETIC DATA 
Data resulting from blood sampling for trough concentrations of azeliragon will be 
collected and summarized descriptively. Concentration-driven analysis of the

efficacy/safety may be performed. The statistical methods will be described in the 
SAP. 
9.11 
QUESTIONNAIRES 
Questionnaires include cognitive assessment, functional assessments, behavioral 
assessments, and assessments of quality of life. Questionnaires in this study will be 
scored according to the published guidelines provided in validation and 
documentation for the instruments by the developers. The statistical methods will be 
described in the SAP. 
9.12 
HANDLING MISSING DATA 
Data are considered to be “on-treatment” if the assessment of collection follows the 
first administration of study medication and if the assessment occurs within 45 days 
following the final administration of study medication, justified based on the long 
half-life of this drug. 
In general, for primary efficacy analysis and for safety analysis, missing data will 
not be imputed. Dates with missing fields will not have days imputed. 
In accordance with the recommendations of the report from the National Academy 
of Science (NAS) panel “The Prevention and Treatment of Missing Data in Clinical 
Trials,” (National Research Council, 2010), sensitivity analyses will be done to 
ensure that study conclusions are robust against missing data.  Last observation 
carried forward (LOCF) and baseline observation carried forward (BOCF) methods 
will be used as appropriate in sensitivity analysis.  Missing data types will be 
examined, and statistical methodologies for appropriate sensitivity analyses will be 
finalized during blind data review as patterns emerge as the study progresses. 
Primary methodologies following the ITT principle are not subject to change. 
Details of methodologies identifying data as missing at random (MAR) or not 
missing at random (NMAR) will be addressed in the SAP.  Statistical methods for 
addressing MAR and NMAR will be described in the SAP.

DATA MONITORING COMMITTEE 
An external Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) will be responsible 
for the review of all available safety data at their regularly scheduled meetings during 
the trial. 
The IDMC will consist of at least 3 members, including a neurologist who has 
experience in the treatment of individuals with AD and a senior statistician.  Ad hoc 
members (e.g., experts on RAGE mechanisms or a cardiovascular physician) will be 
available for consultation by the IDMC upon request. 
The IDMC will initially be provided with data displays in accordance with the IDMC 
charter.   
Blinded summary IDMC reports will also be distributed to all participating sites for 
local IRB/REB submission, where applicable.  The IDMC will meet in person or by 
conference call on a quarterly basis.  The IDMC charter will specify these and other 
operational aspects of the IDMC structure, processes and study stopping rules. 
9.14 
INTERIM ANALYSIS 
Except for the ongoing, blinded medical monitoring of accruing data and except for 
the ongoing review by the IDMC, no interim analysis is planned for Part 1 or Part 2. 
Although this study has an adaptive design, and sample size re-estimation for Part 2 
of the study is a potential feature for revaluation, the analysis of Part 1 to be used for 
the re-estimation is to be done as a final analysis following the database lock, hence, 
the analysis will not be an interim analysis. It is acknowledged that a blinded analysis 
is considered an interim analysis in accordance with the draft guidance from the 
FDA on adaptive designs, and no interim analysis is intended for this study. 
As a conservative measure, an alpha adjustment is applied to accommodate analyses 
by the IDMC because the safety evaluation will include review of ADAS-cog14 data 
from the safety perspective. Alpha = 0.0001 is divided among no more than 4 interim 
analyses in the 100-subject, 6-month trial (for an alpha adjustment of 0.0001, which 
is considered to be negligible, so alpha=0.05 is available for the final analysis); for 
Part 2, alpha = 0.0001 is apportioned to each of no more than 10 analyses by the

IDMC that includes review of ADAS-cog14 data, blinded unless there is a 
data-driven need expressed by the IDMC to be unblinded. 
With the possible exception of the IDMC, no unblinding is planned in this study for 
any reason other than emergency unblinding for medical imperatives. 
It is emphasized that there is no interim analysis in this study for efficacy. The 
interim analyses described in this section refer to the analyses done by the IDMC for 
safety monitoring only. 
9.15 
DATA MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS 
This study will utilize electronic data capture (EDC) for data capture. The database 
lock will occur when each Part of the study is declared closed, when all subjects 
have completed the study part (last visit of the last subject on-study).

QUALITY CONTROL / MONITORING OF THE STUDY 
During study conduct, the Sponsor or its designee will conduct periodic monitoring 
visits to ensure that the protocol and GCPs are being followed.  The monitors may 
review source documents to confirm that the data recorded on CRFs is accurate.  
Additionally, the study site may be subject to quality assurance audits performed by 
the Sponsor, and/or to inspection by the IRB/REB or regulatory authorities.

DATA HANDLING AND RECORD KEEPING 
11.1 
CASE REPORT FORMS/ELECTRONIC DATA RECORD 
This study will utilize electronic data capture (EDC) for the data record serving as 
the “Case Report Form (CRF)”.  All required study information must be recorded 
on the appropriate CRF screens/forms using the eCRF Completion Guidelines for 
the study.  Quality control measures will progress final data management activities 
from last-patient-last-visit to database lock, then unblinding, final analysis, and final 
reported for each part of the study. The database lock will occur when the study is 
declared closed, when all participants have completed the study (last visit of the last 
subject on-study) and the data are fully monitored with all queries resolved. 
The PI is responsible for ensuring that the data collected is collected/reported in a 
timely manner and is accurate, complete and legible.  Data will be verified within 
the eCRF by the Study Site and the Study Monitor before being exported.  Any 
changes made during verification will be documented with a full audit trail. 
Any missing or inconsistent data entries will be referred back to the PI or designee, 
using a data query form, and documented for each individual study participant before 
eCRFs are frozen and signed by the PI. From that point forward, the database will 
be protected from changes (database lock). 
11.2 
RECORD RETENTION 
For sites in the United States, the PI/Study Site must retain all study records, 
including regulatory documents and individual study participant records, for a period 
of 2 years following the date a marketing application is approved for the drug, for 
the indication for which it is being investigated; or, if no application is to be filed, 
or if the application is not approved, until 2 years after the investigation is 
discontinued, and the FDA is notified or longer if requested by Sponsor (per 21 CFR 
312.62).   
For sites in Canada, the PI/Study Site must retain all study records, including regulatory 
documents and individual study participant records, for a period of 25 years after the 
date of completion of trial (per FDR C.05.012).

If the investigator becomes unable for any reason to continue to retain study records 
for the required period (e.g., retirement, relocation, closure of facility), the Sponsor 
should be prospectively notified.  The study records must be transferred to a designee 
acceptable to vTv Therapeutics, such as another investigator, another institution, or 
to vTv Therapeutics.  vTv Therapeutics needs to be notified and approval obtained 
before records may be transferred off site.

ETHICS 
12.1 
INSTITUTIONAL REVIEW BOARD (IRB)/RESEARCH ETHICS BOARD 
(REB) 
The study protocol, protocol amendments, informed consent forms, and other 
relevant documents (e.g., recruitment advertisements) will be reviewed and 
approved by the IRB/REB prior to site initiation.  All correspondence with the 
IRB/REB should be retained in the site’s trial file with copies of IRB/REB 
communications forwarded to the Sponsor. 
A protocol amendment may be implemented prior to IRB/REB approval only where 
the change is necessary to eliminate apparent immediate hazards to the participants.  
Should this occur, the investigator must notify the IRB/REB and the Sponsor in 
writing immediately after the implementation of the protocol amendment.  No 
deviations to the protocol are permissible except when necessary to eliminate an 
immediate hazard to study participants.  The investigator shall notify the IRB/REB 
of deviations from the protocol or serious adverse events occurring at the site, in 
accordance with local procedures. 
12.2 
ETHICAL CONDUCT OF THE STUDY 
The study will be conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki on 
Ethical Principles for Medical Research Involving Human Participants, adopted by 
the General Assembly of the World Medical Association (2013). 
In addition, the study will be conducted in accordance with the protocol, the 
International Conference on Harmonisation guideline on Good Clinical Practice, 
and applicable local regulatory requirements and laws. 
12.3 
SUBJECT INFORMATION AND CONSENT 
Informed consent will be administered in accordance with the requirements of 
21 CFR 50.20-27, FDR C.05.010 and ICH E6 4.8, Principles of Good Clinical 
Practice, as applicable.  Before protocol-specified procedures are carried out, the PI

the risks involved to the study participant, his/her legally authorized representative 
(if applicable) and caregiver/informant prior to their inclusion in the trial. 
Prior to performing any study-specific procedure, each study participant and the 
participant’s caregiver/informant will be required to read and voluntarily sign an 
Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Research Ethics Board (REB) - approved 
informed consent form (ICF), indicating his/her consent to participate (or assent 
[where this is in accordance with local laws, regulations and ethics committee 
policy] in the case of participants who are deemed to be unable to have the cognitive 
ability to provide consent).  This ICF will conform to the requirements of the 
applicable 21 CFR 50.20-27, FDR C.05.010 and ICH E6 Principles of Good Clinical 
Practice (GCP).  The Study Sponsor must agree with the final IRB/REB-approved 
ICF prior to initiation of the study.  Study participants will be provided adequate 
time to review the ICF and if they wish, may take it home to discuss their 
participation in the study with friends, family, and/or a physician.  The original 
signed ICFs must remain in the study participant's file in the Study Site.  Study 
participant will receive a copy of their signed ICF. 
Continued consent / assent will be evaluated at each study visit for the duration of 
the study.
