Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To establish the safety and efficacy of HTL0018318 compared with placebo when administered once daily for 12 weeks to patients with dementia with Lewy bodies.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

To assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of HTL0018318 at 3 dose levels (once daily) compared with placebo over a 12-week treatment period in patients with dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). Approximately 140 DLB patients who have not received donepezil (AriceptĀ®) and/or other acetyl cholinesterase inhibitors (AchEi) and approximately 32 DLB patients who have had prior treatment experience with donepezil but have stopped usage will be enrolled.
