The COMCID trial (A Trial of Cilostazol for Prevention of Conversion from Mild Cognitive Impairment to Dementia) was an investigator-initiated, double-blind, phase 2 randomized clinical trial. Adult participants were registered between May 25, 2015, and March 31, 2018, and received placebo or cilostazol for up to 96 weeks. Participants were treated in the National Cerebral and Cardiovascular Center and 14 other regional core hospitals in Japan. Patients with mild cognitive impairment with Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores of 22 to 28 points (on a scale of 0 to 30, with lower scores indicating greater cognitive impairment) and Clinical Dementia Rating scores of 0.5 points (on a scale of 0, 0.5, 1, 2, and 3, with higher scores indicating more severe dementia) were enrolled. The data were analyzed from May 1, 2020, to December 1, 2020.
