A total of 174 participants were enrolled and 170 were treated (57 in neuroEPO plus 0.5 mg, 56 in neuroEPO plus 1.0 mg and 57 in placebo group). Mean age, 74.0 years; 121 (71.2%) women and 85% completed the trial. The median change in ADAS-Cog11 score at 48 weeks was −3.0 (95% CI, −4.3 to −1.7) in the 0.5 mg neuroEPO plus group, −4.0 (95% CI, −5.9 to −2.1) in the 1.0 mg neuroEPO plus group and 4.0 (95% CI, 1.9 to 6.1) in the placebo group. The difference of neuroEPO plus 0.5 mg vs. placebo was 7.0 points (95% CI, 4.5–9.5)
