synaptogenesis and prevent neuronal death, is being evaluated in a double-blind, placebo-controlled confirmatory trial as a treatment for advanced Alzheimer’s disease patients with a dose regimen of 20 μg of bryostatin compared to placebo. 108 subjects were randomized in a 1:1 treatment allocation. Subjects on Namenda (memantine) were excluded. Namenda was previously shown to block sustained cognitive improvement observed in a recently completed Phase II trial. (cf. Farlow et al., 2019 6).
