Longitudinal medication usage in Alzheimer disease patients
This study examined in detail patterns of cholinesterase inhibitors (ChEIs) and memantine use and explored the relationship between patient characteristics and such use. Patients with probable Alzheimer disease AD (n=201) were recruited from the Predictors Study in 3 academic AD centers and followed from early disease stages for up to 6 years. Random effects logistic […]

Long-term treatment of patients with Alzheimer’s disease in primary and secondary care: Results from an international survey
Objective: The International Outcomes Survey in Dementia (IOSID) was initiated to observe the effects of current standard of care for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) on patient outcomes and caregiver burden in a real-life setting. Research design and methods: This 2-year, international, prospective, longitudinal and observational cohort survey involved patients with mild-to-moderate AD (Mini-Mental State Examination [MMSE] […]

Anti-dementia drugs and changes in gait: a pre-post quasi-experimental pilot study
Background: Anti-dementia drugs may improve gait performance. No comparison between acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (CEIs) and memantine-related changes in gait variability has been reported. The objectives of this study were to 1) quantify and compare the mean values and coefficients of variation (CoV) of stride time in demented patients with Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders (ADRD) before […]

Memantine and brain atrophy in Alzheimer’s disease: a 1-year randomized controlled trial
The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the rate of total brain atrophy (TBA) with serial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), using the Brain Boundary Shift Integral (BBSI), in patients with probable Alzheimer’s disease (AD) over the course of 52 weeks of treatment with memantine or placebo. This was a multi-national, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, […]

Efficacy and safety of memantine in Lewy body dementia
Lewy body dementia (LBD) is a progressive brain disease manifest as dementia and parkinsonism, along with psychotic and autonomic disorders. Although studies in recent years have demonstrated the positive effects of cholinesterase inhibitors in LBD, the search for therapeutic agents with other mechanisms of action remains relevant. An open, controlled, 16-week study was performed with […]

Randomized controlled trial of memantine in dementia associated with Parkinson’s disease
The objective of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of memantine, a glutamatergic modulator, in patients suffering from dementia associated with Parkinson’s disease (PDD), an increasingly common complication of PD. This was a 22-week trial of 25 participants with a DSM-IV diagnosis of PDD who were randomized to either placebo or 20 […]

Effect of tarenflurbil on cognitive decline and activities of daily living in patients with mild Alzheimer disease: a randomized controlled trial
Context: Amyloid-beta peptide (Abeta(42)) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer disease (AD). Tarenflurbil, a selective Abeta(42)-lowering agent, demonstrated encouraging results on cognitive and functional outcomes among mildly affected patients in an earlier phase 2 trial.; Objective: To determine the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of tarenflurbil.; Design, Setting, and Patients: A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, […]

Safety and tolerability of rivastigmine capsule with memantine in patients with probable Alzheimer’s disease: a 26-week, open-label, prospective trial (Study ENA713B US32)
Objective: Rivastigmine, a dual cholinesterase inhibitor (ChEI), is widely approved for the symptomatic treatment of both mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease dementia. Orally administered ChEIs may be associated with gastrointestinal (GI) side effects and add-on therapy with memantine, an N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor antagonist, approved for moderate-to-severe AD, may ameliorate such side effects. This was […]

Retrospective study on the benefits of combined Memantine and cholinEsterase inhibitor treatMent in AGEd Patients affected with Alzheimer’s Disease: the MEMAGE study
Background: Combined therapy of memantine and acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEIs) in patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) may be associated with higher benefits than either monotherapy.; Objective: This retrospective multicentric study conducted in seven Italian Ambulatory Centers for Dementia assessed the efficacy and safety of memantine 20 mg/day administered for 6 months in addition to an AChEI […]

Comparing the efficacy and safety of Crocus sativus L. With memantine in patients with moderate to severe Alzheimer’s disease: A double‐blind randomized clinical trial
Objectives Limited pharmacological options are available for the management of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in severe stages. Cognitive‐enhancing properties of saffron, the dried stigma of Crocus sativus L., have been evidenced in different studies. We aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of saffron extract versus memantine in reducing cognitive deterioration of patients with moderate to […]
