The study partner has voluntarily signed the IRB/IEC approved study partner informed consent, prior to the conduct of any extension  study-specific procedures.

Exclusion Criteria: 

• The subject has any significant change in his/her medical condition since participation in Study M15-566 that could interfere with the subject's participation in Study M15-570, could place the subject at increased risk, or could confound interpretation of study results. The investigator must re-evaluate the subject for continuing participation and consider relevant factors including:
  • interim development of any clinically significant neurological, hematological, autoimmune, endocrine, cardiovascular, neoplastic, renal, hepatic, metabolic, psychiatric, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, or other major disorder;
  • interim development of contraindication to or inability to tolerate brain MRI or PET scans.
• More than 8 weeks have elapsed since the subject received his/her last dose of study drug in Study M15-566 (i.e., Week 92 visit in Study M15-566). In certain cases, subject may be eligible to enroll after approval by the TA MD.
• Subject is concurrently enrolled in another interventional clinical study (with the exception of Study M15-566) involving a therapeutic agent.
