Early or partial results. Treat as a signal, not a conclusion.
This is a clinical trial registry record documenting a planned randomized controlled trial of piromelatine 20 mg versus placebo in mild Alzheimer's disease, with ADAS-cog14 as the primary outcome at 26 weeks. The trial has been terminated and no results are posted in this registry record, so no efficacy or safety conclusions can be drawn.
