About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Phase II Study of the Efficacy and Safety of SGS742 in Subjects With Mild to Moderate Alzheimer's Disease

The purpose of this trial is to determine the effect of a new drug, SGS742, on memory and cognition in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease.

Read the detailed description

SGS742 is a GABA(B) receptor antagonist. It is an orally active drug and possesses neurochemical and psychopharmacologic features that suggest it could improve memory and cognition in humans. The primary objective of the SGS742 clinical trial will be to determine the effect of SGS742 on memory and cognition in individuals diagnosed with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. The duration of the study is 3 months with 5 clinic visits.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing SGS742 in people with Alzheimer's Disease, run by Saegis Pharmaceuticals at 59 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Dec 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 59 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00093951, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Dec 2009.
