a phase 2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of bey2153 in patients with early alzheimer's disease

Conditions: Alzheimer Disease; Alzheimer&#39; Disease

Summary: the purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of bey2153 in patients with early alzheimer's disease. subjects who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be randomized 1:1:1 to one of three treatment arms for 26 weeks administration. the extension study for additional 26 weeks will be conducted open-label with one treatment arm. subjects will take bey2153 orally once a day during the study.
