Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The investigators propose to conduct a series of N of One (No1) single blinded clinical trials to pilot the feasibility of using the iron-chelator deferiprone on Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). Chelation therapy has previously been reported to slow the rate of cognitive decline in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) by 50% in a single human randomized clinical trial.
