Interventions

  • 2-hydroxybenzylamine acetate — DRUG
    2-hydroxybenzylamine acetate (2-HOBA) is taken three times per day for 16 weeks
  • Placebo — OTHER
    Placebo taken three times per day for 16 weeks.

Study Details

Investigators propose a phase 1b/2a, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group dose finding and biomarker study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and biomarker activity of 2-HOBA in 48 MCI/AD participants. Participants will be randomized 1:1:1:1 to receive 250, 500, 750 mg 2-HOBA acetate TID or placebo for 16 weeks. Blood and cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) will be collected to measure markers of protein modification by dicarbonyls (IsoLGs- \& MDA), pTau-181, YKL-40, and NF-L.
