A Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Multicentre Trial of Memantine in Patients With Parkinson's Disease Dementia or Dementia With Lewy Bodies
Abstract
A 24-week placebo-controlled parallel group multicentre trial to study the safety and efficacy of memantine in patients with dementia associated with Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies. It is hypothesized that memantine will be safe and well tolerated, and more effective than placebo.
Conditions: Dementia Associated With Parkinson's Disease, Dementia With Lewy Bodies.
Primary outcome: Clinical Global Impression of Change.
Enrollment: 75 participants.
