Summary
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to qualify the biomarker risk algorithm for prognosis of the
risk of developing Mild Cognitive Impairment due to Alzheimer's Disease (MCI-AD), and also to
evaluate the efficacy of pioglitazone compared with placebo to delay the onset of MCI-AD in
cognitively-normal participants who are at high-risk for developing MCI within 5 years.
