Randomized Controlled Pilot Trial Of Dapagliflozin In Alzheimer's Disease
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Dapagliflozin and Placebo for Alzheimer Disease. Completed, enrolled 46 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This is a pilot randomized controlled trial in individuals with probable Alzheimer's disease testing the effects of 10 mg dapagliflozin, taken daily for 12 weeks, on cerebral n-acetyl aspartate (NAA) levels using magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). The investigators will also examine the safety and tolerability of dapagliflozin and explore the effects on systemic NAA levels in blood and urine, cerebral metabolism (fluorodeoxyglucose \[FDG\] PET), systemic metabolic biomarkers that indicate and quantify secondary metabolic effects, and cognitive performance.
