Brief Summary: The purpose of this multicenter trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of MK-7622 compared with placebo as adjunctive therapy to acetylcholinesterase inhibitors AChEIs for the symptomatic treatment of participants with mild to moderate Alzheimers Disease AD The trial consists of two stages Stage 1 and Stage 2 In Stage 1 participants will be randomized to receive either placebo or MK-7622 45 mg once daily In Stage 2 participants will be randomized to receive either placebo or MK-7622 dose 5 15 or 45 mg once daily Participants will be enrolled in only one stage the duration of each stage is approximately 26 weeks Interim analyses will be performed in both Stage 1 and Stage 2 to determine whether the trial should continue The primary study hypotheses are the following Stage 1 - MK-7622 45 mg once daily is superior to placebo with respect to improving cognition in participants with mild to moderate AD as assessed by mean change from baseline in the 11-item Alzheimers Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale ADAS-Cog11 at Week 12 Stage 2 - At least one of the top two doses of MK-7622 15 mg once daily 45 mg once daily is superior to placebo with respect to improving cognition in participants with mild to moderate AD as assessed by mean change from baseline in ADAS-Cog11 at Week 12
Detailed Description: If the double-blind treatment dose is not tolerated during the first 2 weeks the participant will be discontinued After the first 2 weeks if the dose is not tolerated the regimen may be modified according to a defined algorithm Specifically the participant will begin administration of a reduced dose for up to 2 weeks followed by a re-challenge at the original dose only if tolerability issues diminish or resolve at the reduced dose
