* If a participant has a second study partner, it is preferred that 1 study partner be primarily responsible for the CDR and the ADCS-ADL assessments.
* Days requiring the following assessments and scales must have a study partner available by telephone if not accompanying participant for the following assessments

  * AEs and concomitant medications
  * CDR, and
  * ADCS-ADL
* Stable concomitant symptomatic AD medications and other medications that may impact cognition for at least approximately 30 days prior to randomization.
