RewinD-LB - Clinical Study of Neflamapimod in Patients With Dementia With Lewy Bodies
United States, Netherlands, United Kingdom159 participantsStarted 2023-05-01
Plain-language summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether neflamapimod can improve learning skills, problem solving skills, and memory loss in people diagnosed with DLB. More specifically, improvement in verbal learning, memory, and attention, as well as cognitive and functional performance will be measured.

Inclusion criteria
. Men and women aged ≥55 years.
. Subject or subject's legally authorized representative is willing and able to provide written informed consent.
. 3\. Probable DLB by consensus criteria (McKeith et al, 2017), including a positive DaTscan™. Specifically, the subject must have the presence of dementia in association with:
. CDR Global Score 0.5 (very mild dementia) or 1.0 (mild dementia) during Screening
. Background dementia therapy:
. Normal or corrected eyesight and auditory abilities, sufficient to perform all aspects of the cognitive and functional assessments.
. No history of learning difficulties that may interfere with their ability to complete the cognitive tests.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
Change in Clinical Dementia Rating Scale - Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB) in Neflamapimod-treated Participants Compared to Placebo Recipients (Blinded Treatment Period)
Timeframe: 16 weeks

. Received vaccination for SARS-CoV-19 unless medical contraindications prevent being vaccinated, or has a history of natural infection.
Exclusion criteria
. Diagnosis of any other ongoing central nervous system (CNS) condition other than DLB, including, but not limited to, post-stroke dementia, vascular dementia, Alzheimer's disease (AD), or Parkinson's disease (PD).
. Plasma ptau181 result above the threshold that indicates evidence of pathology associated with Alzheimer's disease at Screening.
. Suicidality, defined as active suicidal thoughts within 6 months before Screening or at Baseline, defined as answering yes to items 4 or 5 on the C-SSRS, or history of suicide attempt in previous 2 years, or, in the Investigator's opinion, at serious risk of suicide.
. Ongoing major and active psychiatric disorder and/or other concurrent medical condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, might compromise safety and/or compliance with study requirements.
. Diagnosis of alcohol or drug abuse within the previous 2 years.
. Poorly controlled clinically significant medical illness, such as hypertension (blood pressure \>180 mmHg systolic or 100 mmHg diastolic); myocardial infarction within 6 months; uncompensated congestive heart failure or other significant cardiovascular, pulmonary, renal, liver, infectious disease, immune disorder, or metabolic/endocrine disorders or other disease that would interfere with assessment of drug safety.
. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) \>2 × the upper limit of normal (ULN), total bilirubin \>1.5 × ULN, and/or International Normalized Ratio (INR) \>1.5. If patient is taking blood thinners (e.g., warfarin), and has no known liver issues, INR \>3.
. Known human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis B, or active hepatitis C virus infection.
