About this research

In order to participate in this study, you must be able to speak and read Dutch fluently.

The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the new drug AR1001 for the treatment of patients with early Alzheimer’s disease. The study compares the effect of the new drug AR1001 with the effect of a placebo (a drug without an active ingredient, a ‘fake drug’). The study drug is taken orally in the form of a pill.

AR1001 might help brain cells grow, repair themselves, and communicate. This may slow or reverse early signs of Alzheimer’s disease and mild cognitive impairment and improve brain functions like memory.

The main study runs for approximately 1 year with the option to participate in an extension of the study for another year. During the extension of the study, participant will be administered with the study drug, no placebo. You and your study partner, someone who knows you well and can answer questions about your daily functioning, will visit the research center approximately 8 to 12 times, during approximately 1 to 2 years. The duration of a visit is not always the same because not every visit has the same procedures. Some of these visits may last about 2 hours, others about 5 hours. The research takes place in Amsterdam, Den Bosch or Zwolle.

This study is commissioned by AriBio
