This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of KarXT in male and female subjects who are aged 55 to 90 years and have mild to severe Alzheimer's Disease (AD) with moderate to severe psychosis related to AD.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of KarXT compared with placebo in the treatment of subjects with psychosis associated with AD as measured by the Neuropsychiatric Inventory-Clinician (NPI-C): Hallucinations and Delusions (H+D) score.
Is a male or female aged 55 to 90 years, inclusive, at Screening.
Can understand the nature of the trial and protocol requirements and provide informed consent or assent before any study assessments are performed.
Meets clinical criteria for Possible AD or Probable AD.
Must have a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) scan of the brain (completed within the past 5 years) taken during or subsequent to the onset of dementia to rule out other central nervous system (CNS) disease that could account for the dementia syndrome, e.g., major stroke, neoplasm, subdural hematoma. If not available, a non-contrast brain MRI or non-contrast head CT must be done during Screening.
Psychotic symptoms that are primarily attributable to a condition other than the AD causing the dementia.
History of major depressive episode with psychotic features during the 12 months prior to Screening.
History of bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or schizoaffective disorder.
Significant or severe medical conditions including pulmonary, hepatic, renal, hematologic, gastrointestinal, endocrine, immunologic, dermatologic, neurologic, cardiovascular, or oncologic disease or any other condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, could jeopardize the safety of the subject, ability to complete or comply with the study procedures or validity of the study results.
