Endpoints

Primary: Phase 2A: The rate of tolerability events (TEs)., Phase 2B: The primary cognitive endpoint is the within-participant change from baseline to 72 weeks compared between active arms (benfotiamine) and placebo on the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale - Cognitive Subscale 13 (ADAS-Cog13)., Phase 2B: The primary functional endpoint is the within-participant change from baseline to 72 weeks compared between active arm (benfotiamine) and placebo on the Clinical Dementia Rating - Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB).

Secondary: Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious AEs., Phase 2B: within-participant change from baseline to 72 weeks compared between active (benfotiamine) arms and placebo arm on The Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study - Activities of Daily Living Scale for use in Mild Cognitive Impairment (ADCS-ADL-MCI)., Phase 2B: within-participant change from baseline to 72 weeks compared between active arms (benfotiamine) and placebo arm on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA).
