Background: CT1812 is a first-in-class, sigma-2 receptor ligand, that prevents and displaces binding of amyloid beta (Aβ) oligomers. Normalization of quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG) markers suggests that CT1812 protects synapses from Aβ oligomer toxicity.
Objectives: Evaluate CT1812 impact on synaptic function using qEEG measurements.
Unlabelled: A novel network version of permutation entropy, the inverted joint permutation entropy (JPE), holds potential as non-invasive biomarker of abnormal excitation-inhibition (E-I) ratio in Alzheimer's disease (AD). In this computational modelling study, we test the hypotheses that this metric, and related measures of signal variability and functional connectivity, are sensitive to altered E-I ratios. The E-I ratio in each neural mass of a whole-brain computational network model was systematically varied.

We aimed to compare physical function at a 5-year follow-up and implant survival at an average of 10-year follow-up in an randomized controlled trial (RCT).
Methods: This is a secondary report of a double-blinded RCT in 2 hospitals.
