This Clinical Trial will take place in 2 parts.\n\nThe first part will be performed as a dose escalation part in cohorts of three subjects. Possible dosages will be: one, two, three or four capsules (100 mg per capsule) once per day. The first cohort receives a dose of 100 mg per day. After the treatment, a Vorinostat-free follow-up phase will take place. For the following cohorts, dose increases, a repetition of the previous dose or a dose reduction are possible.\n\nAfter the dose escalation with a determination of the MTD, a dosage confirmation is carried out with additional subjects. The subjects are given a dose of Vorinostat of MTD over 4 weeks followed by a Vorinostat-free follow-up phase."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '90 Years', 'minimumAge': '55 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* written informed consent to participate in the study\n* verified capacity to consent by a doctor not involved in the study\n* mild Alzheimer's disease (NINCDS / ADRDA criteria and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) 22-27)\n* age (including) from 55 to 90 years\n* subjects must be able to meet the requirements described in the study protocol\n* outpatient living\n* Informant lives with subject in the same household\n* Rosen modified Hachinski ischemia score ≤4\n* concerning only female patients: postmenopausal\n* concerning only male patients: commitment to use a suitable contraceptive\n* cerebral imaging study (CT or cMRI), which is consistent with a diagnosis of probable Alzheimer's disease (not older than 3 years)\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* other neurological and psychiatric diseases explaining cognitive deficits better than an AD diagnosis\n* conspicuous MRI / CCT scan explaining the cognitive deficits better than an AD diagnosis\n* severe physical, neurological or psychiatric disorders that interfere with the participation in the study\n* history of malignant tumors except non- metastasizing basal cell carcinoma of the skin\n* history of seizures\n* dysphagia leading to the inability to swallow capsules\n* untreated severe acute infections with clinical symptoms such as respiratory infections, pneumonia, bronchitis, acute diarrhea, influenza, untreated urinary tract infections\n* in the family history, unexplained sudden cases of heart failure before the age of 50 years\n* long QT syndrome in the family history\n* evidence of QTc prolongation ≥480 ms at screening (Fridericia adjusted QT interval), of arrhythmias especially of severe uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmias or atrial fibrillation in ECG\n* not sufficiently treated angina\n* heart failure (NYHA III, IV)\n* myocardial infarction\n* known infection with HBV, HCV and / or HIV\n* occurrence of venous thrombosis or embolism\n* therapy with antidepressants begun in the last 12 weeks or dose modification of a pre-existing therapy with antidepressants\n* antidiabetic treatment begun in the last 12 weeks or dose modification of pre-existing antidiabetic treatment\n* long-term use of anti-inflammatory drugs except acetylsalicylic acid for cardiovascular prophylaxis\n* current treatment or treatment within the past 12 weeks with HDAC inhibitors (eg valproate)\n* taking medication that may increase the dose-dependent side effects myelosuppression or QTc interval prolongation.\n\nThese include, but are not limited to:\n\n* Class Ia antiarrhythmic agents such as quinidine, procainamide, disopyramide\n* Class III antiarrhythmic drugs such as amiodarone, sotalol, ibutilide\n* Class Ic antiarrhythmics such as flecainide, propafenone\n* penicillamine\n* opioids such as methadone and pyrazolone derivatives such as metamizole and Propyphenazone\n* doxorubicin, epirubicin\n* macrolides and their analogues such as erythromycin, clarithromycin\n* telithromycin\n* oxazolidinones such as linezolid\n* quinolones such as moxifloxacin, levofloxacin\n* fluoxetine, maprotiline\n* tricyclic and tetracyclic antidepressants\n* chlorpromazine, pimozide, haloperidol, droperidol, ziprasidone and clozapine\n* antiemetics\n* azole like ketoconazole, fluconazole, voriconazole\n* aminocholine such as primaquine\n* pentamidine such as quinine, chloroquine\n* diaminopyrimidine such as pyrimethamine\n* salbutamol and formoterol methotrexate\n* azathioprine, cyclosporine Interferon gamma 1b\n* alemtuzumab, basiliximab, efalizumab, natalizumab\n* sunitinib, nilotinib, lapatinib\n* mitoxantrone, Hydroxycarbamide, mercaptopurine\n* taking of prescription and non-prescription drugs for cognitive enhancement (except cholinesterase inhibitors and memantine at a stable dose for at least 3 months before baseline)\n* therapy with anticoagulants except acetylsalicylic acid\n* HbA1c in screening more than 10% above the upper limit of normal\n* magnesium, sodium, calcium and potassium levels outside the normal range (at screening and baseline)\n* existing anemia with Hb \\<11 (at screening and baseline)\n* existing thrombocytopenia;
