A 25-week, open-label trial investigating rivastigmine transdermal patches with concomitant memantine in mild-to-moderate Alzheimer disease: A post hoc analysis
Objective: To investigate the tolerability and efficacy of the rivastigmine transdermal patch in patients with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s disease receiving concomitant memantine. Research design and methods: Post hoc analysis of a 25-week, randomized, prospective, open-label, parallel-group study. Patients receiving donepezil were switched to rivastigmine patches (4.6 mg/24 h) immediately or following a 7-day withdrawal for 4 […]

Efficacy and tolerability of Ginkgo biloba extract EGb 761® by type of dementia: Analyses of a randomised controlled trial
Secondary analyses of a randomised controlled trial were performed to find out whether treatment effects of Ginkgo biloba extract EGb 761® differed by type of dementia. Three hundred ninety-five patients aged 50 years or above, with dementia with neuropsychiatric features were treated with EGb 761® (240 mg/day) or placebo for 22 weeks. Patients scored between […]

Evaluation of the convenience of changing the rivastigmine administration route in patients with Alzheimer disease
Introduction: Rivastigmine transdermal patches for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) have potential benefits compared to capsules because of their sustained absorption through the skin, good local tolerability and reduction of gastrointestinal problems.; Purpose: To assess gastrointestinal and skin tolerability and the need for optimal dose titration of rivastigmine transdermal patches in Alzheimer’s disease patients […]

Effects of body weight on tolerability of rivastigmine transdermal patch: a post-hoc analysis of a double-blind trial in patients with Alzheimer disease
The rationale for the development of the rivastigmine transdermal patch was to improve upon an efficacious therapy by mitigating certain adverse events, such as nausea and vomiting. This may be particularly important in Alzheimer disease patients with low body weights, who may be more susceptible to these adverse events. This analysis compared the effect of […]

Rosiglitazone does not improve cognition or global function when used as adjunctive therapy to AChE inhibitors in mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s disease: two phase 3 studies
Introduction: Two phase 3 studies evaluated the efficacy and safety of rosiglitazone (RSG), a type 2 diabetes treatment, in an extended release (RSG XR) form as adjunctive therapy to ongoing acetylcholine esterase inhibitor (AChEI) treatment in AD (REFLECT-2, adjunctive to donepezil; REFLECT-3, to any AChEI). An open-label extension study (REFLECT-4) assessed RSG XR long-term safety.; […]

Memantine in everyday clinical practice: a comparison of studies in Germany and Greece
Background/aims: Results from German and Greek non-interventional studies were compared to investigate possible differences concerning efficacy, tolerability and compliance between both countries.; Methods: In two open-label, multicentre, non-interventional studies, 4,305 patients with mild to severe Alzheimer’s disease (AD) were treated with daily doses of 20 mg memantine for 6 months. Efficacy was assessed using the […]

Safety and tolerability of donepezil 23 mg in moderate to severe Alzheimer’s disease
Background: Donepezil 23 mg/d, recently approved in the United States for treatment of moderate to severe Alzheimer’s disease (AD), was developed to address the need for an additional treatment option for patients with advanced AD. This report, based on a pivotal phase 3 study, presents a detailed analysis of the safety and tolerability of increasing […]

A randomized double-blind study comparing 25 and 50 mg TC-1734 (AZD3480) with placebo, in older subjects with age-associated memory impairment
Cognitive decline is a feature of ageing and can be defined as normal (age-associated memory impairment) or pathological (mild cognitive impairment/Alzheimer’s disease). Stimulation of selective brain-specific neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors might offer symptomatic treatment for normal ageing. The objective of this study was to assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of TC-1734 (AZD3480), a selective […]

Safety and tolerability of galantamine in possible Alzheimer’s disease with or without cerebrovascular disease and vascular dementia in Thai patients
The purpose of this study was to explore factors that influence the clinical safety and tolerability associated with galantamine administration in Thai Alzheimer’s disease patients with or without cerebrovascular disease and vascular dementia. This was an analysis of previous study. Tolerability and safety profile were analyzed according to sex, age, body weight, Thai mental state […]

Safety and tolerability of the rivastigmine patch: results of a 28-week open-label extension
The primary objective of the open-label extension was to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of a transdermal rivastigmine patch up to 1 year, as a novel approach to treatment in Alzheimer disease. This was a 28-week extension to a 24-week, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo-controlled, and active-controlled study evaluating rivastigmine patches [9.5 mg/24 h (10 cm2) […]
