Summary

This study will evaluate the effect of 150 mg MSDC-0160 taken daily for 90 days compared to the effect of placebo on changes in brain glucose utilization using FDG-PET and cognition in older persons with mild Alzheimer's disease. Safety and tolerability of MSDC-0160 in this population will also be studied. These results will be used to design larger studies of MSDC-0160 in persons with mild Alzheimer's disease.
