  1. 01HumanNon-randomized trialEfficacy outcome

    In women with amnestic mild cognitive impairment, high-dose davunetide significantly improved digit span versus matched placebo.

    In plain wordsIn women with memory impairment, high-dose davunetide improved digit span more than matched placebo.

    Summary
    In a test of semantic working memory and attention (digit span), women showed a significant low-dose placebo effect, ensuing in a high dose significant davunetide improvement, over the matched placebo.

    Summary · context
    Extending these findings to prodromal Alzheimer's disease, we submitted a double-blind, placebo-controlled, 12 weeks/16 weeks follow-up, davunetide clinical trial results in amnestic mild cognitive impairment (ClinicalTrials.gov ID NCT00422981), to a sex-dependent analysis.
    Summary · context
    One hundred forty-four individuals, separated into eight groups (1:2 placebo-and 2 doses, 5 mg davunetide/daily or 15 mg davunetide/twice-daily, with matching placebo intranasal volumes), were evaluated.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, Davunetide was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Davunetide.

    In amnestic mild cognitive impairment, in a davunetide trial, dose-dependent cognitive increases on delayed visual matching to the sample were larger in men than in women.

    In plain wordsIn people with memory impairment in a davunetide trial, men showed larger dose-dependent gains than women on delayed visual matching.
