Annual Meeting Highlights

I hope that someone who attended the meeting will provide a report for this SI thread.

The most significant thing mentioned in the press release is that participants in the open label portion of the trial are requesting continued treatment. The open label phase occurs after the double blind placebo controlled portion of the trial. In the open label phase, everyone is treated with memantine (no placebo) and everyone knows that they are being treated. The requests could be the result of a placebo effect. But, I doubt it. Placebo effects tend not to be very strong in dementia. Thus, this is a very promising clue.
