Background: A 12-week randomized controlled trial demonstrated that brexpiprazole is efficacious for treating agitation in patients with dementia due to Alzheimer's disease.
Objective: To assess the long-term safety and tolerability of brexpiprazole for the treatment of agitation associated with dementia due to Alzheimer's disease.
Methods: This 12-week, active-treatment (oral brexpiprazole 2 or 3 mg/day) extension trial ran from October 2018-September 2022 at 66 sites in Europe/US.
Background: Major depressive disorder (MDD) is common worldwide and can be highly disabling. People with MDD face many barriers to treatment and may not experience full symptom relief even when treated. Therefore, new treatment modalities are needed for MDD.

Objective: To confirm the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of brexpiprazole in patients with agitation in Alzheimer dementia.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This randomized clinical trial was a 12-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled, fixed-dose, parallel-arm trial that ran from May 2018 to June 2022 at 123 clinical trial sites in Europe and the United States.
Objective: To assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of brexpiprazole in patients with agitation in Alzheimer's dementia (AAD).
Design: Two 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-arm studies (NCT01862640; NCT01922258).
Setting: Study 1: 81 sites in 7 countries.
Background: ACC-001 is an investigational therapeutic vaccine designed to elicit antibodies against the N-terminal peptide 1-7 of the amyloid-beta peptide, believed to be important in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease.
Objectives: To evaluate safety, immunogenicity, impact on brain amyloid, and other exploratory endpoints in participants receiving ACC-001.
Design: Randomized, phase 2, interventional study.
