- Change From Baseline Over Time in CDR-SB Score [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 24, Week 48, Week 72, Week 96 ]The CDR-SB is a numeric scale used to quantify the severity of symptoms of dementia. A qualified health professional assesses a participant's cognitive and functional performance in 6 areas: memory, orientation, judgment and problem solving, community affairs, home and hobbies, and personal care. The CDR scale gives a score from 0 to 3 for each of the 6 areas, with a lower value being desirable. The sum of these 6 areas, the CDR-SB score, can range from 0 to 18, with a lower value being desirable.
- Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) [ Time Frame: From first dose of study drug up to last dose of study drug plus 20 weeks (up to Week 112) ]A TEAE was defined as an adverse event (AE) that began on or after the first study drug dose date and no more than 20 weeks after the last dose of study drug. An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. Serious AEs (SAEs) were defined as an event that results in death, is life-threatening, results in hospitalization or prolongs hospitalization, is a congenital abnormality, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or is an important medical event. Events were rated in severity as mild, moderate, or severe, and were categorized as having a reasonable possibility or no reasonable possibility of relationship to study drug.

- Change From Baseline Over Time in Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) Total Score [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 24, Week 48, Week 72, Week 96 ]The MMSE is a brief, 30-point questionnaire, administered by a trained rater, which provides a quantitative measure of cognitive status in adults and is widely used to screen for cognitive impairment and to estimate the severity of cognitive impairment at a given point in time in AD participants. The MMSE ranges from 0 to 30, with lower scores indicating greater impairment.
- Change From Baseline Over Time in Neuropsychiatry Inventory (NPI) Total Score [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 24, Week 48, Week 72, Week 96 ]The NPI is used to assess changes in the participant's behavior that occurred in a defined period of time (4 weeks). The NPI assesses 12 behavioral domains on the dimensions of frequency and severity. Frequency is rated on a scale where 0 = absent, 1 = occasionally, 2 = often, 3 = frequently, 4 = very frequently. Severity is rated on a scale where 0 = absent, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe. For each of the domains, 3 scores are obtained: frequency, severity, and total (product of frequency and severity; ranges from 0 to 12, with a lower score desirable). A total NPI score can be calculated by summing the domain total scores. Total Score ranges from 0 to 144 with a lower score desirable.
- Change From Baseline Over Time in Alzheimer's Disease Composite Score (ADCOMS) Score [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 24, Week 48, Week 72, Week 96 ]ADCOMS score is a composite score which is a weighted linear combination of the selected individual scale items from ADAS-Cog-14 (see description in Outcome Measure 10) , MMSE (see description in Outcome Measure 45), and CDR-SB (see description in Outcome Measure 1) scales. The ADCOMS score ranges from 0 to 1.97, with a lower score desirable.
