NCT02279511

Brief Summary

To Check whether systemic treatment with ATP alters the profile of cerebral metabolism in patients with Alzheimer's disease using MRS techniques (Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy) and adjust the infusion (minimum effective dose) that promotes this metabolic change.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Detection of brain metabolic changes after ATP infusion by spectroscopy techniques (H + MRS)

    Spectroscopy will be taken one hour after the infusion (7h for patients allocated to 6h arm and 25h in 24h infusion arm)

    expected average of 7-25 hours post infusion

  • Changes in Cogstate results

    one hour after the infusion (7h for patients allocated to 6h arm and 25h in 24h infusion arm)

    expected average of 7-25 hours post infusion

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Changes in Cogstate results

    3 months compared to baseline.

  • Changes in test Mini-Mental State Examination

    3 months compared to baseline.

  • Changes in synaptic activity after treatment administration Neurological examination

    post treatment or 3 months post baseline

  • Electrocardiogram results

    an expected average of 90 days

  • adverse events

    at 90 days
