* Homozygous APOE4 genotype.
* Participant willing to have a study partner.

Key

60 Years
Maximum age
75 Years

Can healthy volunteers participate?
No
Key exclusion criteria
* Any disability that prevented the participant from completing all study requirements.
* Current medical or neurological condition that could have impacted cognition or performance on cognitive assessments.
* Advanced, severe progressive or unstable disease that may have interfered with the safety, tolerability and study assessments, or put the participant at special risk.
* History of malignancy of any organ system, treated or untreated, within 60 months prior to screening.
* History of hypersensitivity to any of the investigational drugs or their excipients / adjuvant or to drugs of similar chemical classes.
* Indication or on current treatment with ChEIs and/or another AD treatment (e.g. memantine).
* Contraindication or intolerance to MRI or PET investigations (with fluorinated radio ligands).
* Brain MRI results showing findings unrelated to AD that, in the opinion of the Investigator could have been a leading cause to future cognitive decline, pose a risk to the participant, or prevent a satisfactory MRI assessment for safety monitoring.
* Suicidal Ideation in the past six months or Suicidal Behavior in the past two years, prior to screening.
* A positive drug screen at Screening, if, in the Investigator's opinion, this was due to drug abuse.
* Significantly abnormal laboratory results at Screening, or infection not as a result of a temporary condition.
* Current clinically significant ECG findings. For Cohort - I only: Participants with previous organ transplantation or stem cell transplantation, or indication for treatment with anti-coagulants.

For Cohort - II only: Participants with depigmenting or hypopigmenting conditions (e.g. albinism vitiligo) or active / history of chronic urticarial in the past year.
