Official title
Phase IV Study Safety & Feasibility of Sodium Oxybate in Mild Alzheimer's Disease Patients.
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Eligible patients will undergo this open label initial safety and feasibility study investigating the use of 6 g/day sodium oxybate in mild AD. A total of 5 visits are included with this trial and total subject participation duration of 7-8 weeks. The screening phase will include an initial screening visit and a screening PSG night. After successful screening, subjects will complete a baseline PSG night and undergo a third PSG night to monitor initial safety and compliance with study drug at a dosage of 4.5 g/day of sodium oxybate. Thus the subject will undergo three consecutive nights of PSG in the sleep center. The patient will maintain a dosage of 4.5 g/day for a duration of 7 days leading to Treatment Visit 1. After successful assessment at Treatment Visit 1, the dosage will be increased to 6 g/day for the duration of the trial. At Treatment Visit 2 (day 21), the dosage will be increased to a dosage of 9 g/day, if tolerated by the patient. The remaining visit will occur at 6 weeks after baseline, with Treatment Visit 3 consisting of two consecutive nights of PSG. Participation will be complete after this visit. Phone follow-up will be made at one week post completion visits to assess any wash-out symptoms. Please refer to Figure for flow of the study design.
