The purpose of the current study is to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ITI-1284 for the treatment of agitation associated with Alzheimer’s dementia. Patients will be monitored carefully for their mental health status and general health. Symptoms of agitation may or may not improve during participation in the study; approximately half of the patients in this study will receive placebo. However, the information obtained from this study may help to develop treatment for people with AD experiencing agitation in the future.
