This brief note regarding memantine/Alzheimer's findings was published in the September issue of NeuroInvestment; I am posting it here at the request of Dr.DeCastro:
Neurobiological Technologies's memantine partner Merz released for the first time Phase II data on memantine in Alzheimer's. In a 166 pt Swedish study, patients receiving memantine showed significantly (p=.001) better rates of improvement than those receiving placebo on a measure of functional change, and significant results on another measure of functional capacity. No objective measures of cognitive/memory functioning were utilized, which means that the study rested upon clinically relevant but 'softer' observer ratings. No significant side effects were noted, of particular importance given the difficulties other NMDA-antagonists have encountered with adverse CNS effects. NeuroInvestment (www.neuroinv.com)
