Randall J. Bateman, MD, of Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, led an international trial evaluating whether investigational drugs could slow memory loss and cognitive decline in a rare, inherited form of Alzheimer's disease. The trial was conducted at 24 sites in Australia, Canada, France, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States.
From Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis:
"An international clinical trial evaluating whether two investigational drugs can slow memory loss and cognitive decline in people in the early stages of a rare, inherited form of Alzheimer’s disease has yielded disappointing results, an initial analysis of the data has shown. However, the researchers continue to explore data from the trial’s cognitive and clinical outcomes, and await analyses of biomarkers and other information so they can further understand the study’s results."
