MINDSET 2 Study:Testing a New Pill Treatment for Alzheimer's
MINDSET 2 is a phase 3 clinical trial for people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. The study tests whether a new experimental pill treatment (KarXT + KarX-EC) is safe and can help with thinking and memory problems.

Study goal and design
Evaluating KarXT + KarX-EC for cognitive impairment
This Phase 3 clinical trial conducted by Bristol-Myers is testing whether the new pill treatment (KarXT + KarX-EC) is safe and can improve memory, thinking, and daily functioning in people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease.
Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the experimental treatment or a placebo, so researchers can compare the effects. These drugs are still investigational and have not yet been approved by the FDA.


Care and support
Comprehensive medical evaluations and monitoring
While contributing to research, participants receive:
- The possibility to receive the investigational study drug (KarXT + KarX-EC)
- Regular cognitive assessments and medical evaluations
- Study visits with qualified medical professionals
- Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) assessments
All medical and travel costs related to the study are covered. Participants must have a designated caregiver who maintains adequate contact (around 10 hours per week or more) and is willing to attend all study visits.
