Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Other - AV-1959R (Abeta vaccine)

Experimental: Arm 1: AV-1959R (100 µg) + Adjuvant - Cohort 1 - Participants receive 100 µg of AV-1959R with the adjuvant via intramuscular injection

Experimental: Arm 2: Placebo (Adjuvant Only) - Cohort 1 - Participants receive a placebo (formulation without AV-1959R) but with the adjuvant via intramuscular injection

Experimental: Arm 3: AV-1959R (300 µg) + Adjuvant - Cohort 2 - Participants receive 300 µg of AV-1959R with the adjuvant via intramuscular injection

Experimental: Arm 4: Placebo (Adjuvant Only) - Cohort 2 - Participants receive a placebo (formulation without AV-1959R) but with the adjuvant via intramuscular injection


Treatment: Other: AV-1959R (Abeta vaccine)
AV-1959R is an investigational adjuvanted vaccine designed to induce a targeted immune response against beta-amyloid (Aß) to support the primary prevention of Alzheimer's disease and the treatment of asymptomatic preclinical Alzheimer's disease. It is administered intramuscularly (IM) at doses of 100 µg or 300 µg on Weeks 0, 4, and 14, in combination with the adjuvant.
