resection, etc.) * Gastrointestinal diseases, including gastric and duodenal ulcers, that may affect the safety evaluation according to the judgment of the investigator * Psychiatric diagnosis or symptoms that may interfere with the study (uncontrolled major depression, uncontrolled schizophrenia, uncontrolled bipolar affective disorder, etc.), as assessed by the investigator * Positive responses to items 4 or 5 on the Columbia University Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) during screening * Other conditions deemed by the investigator to potentially affect the outcome of the

tricaprilin, valiltramiprosate, etc.) within 12 weeks before screening * Medications that may improve cognitive abilities or affect AD treatment (AChEIs, donepezil, galantamine, rivastigmine, tacrine, memantine, etc.) within 12 weeks before screening, except if the subject has been on a stable dose for at least 12 weeks before baseline and maintains the same composition/dosage/method of administration during the study period * CNS-active drugs or those affecting cognitive function antidepressants other than serotonergic drugs \[e.g., bupropion\], sedatives \[e.g., carbamazepine\], dopamine antagonists \[e.g., antipsychotics, metoclopramide\], amfepramone, mazindol) within 12 weeks before screening * Central anticholinergics and sedating H1-antihistamines within 12 weeks before screening. However, exceptions are allowed for one-time use of the drugs, such as second-generation H1 antihistamines (e.g., cetirizine, levocetirizine, etc.) or peripheral anticholinergics with no central action (e.g., trospium for treating overactive bladder). But the use is prohibited for at least 3 days from the date of cognitive function evaluation. * Other investigational products or clinical trial devices within four weeks before baseline or five times the half-life of the drug (whichever is longer, and patients can be enrolled after wash-out) * Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) and linezolid within two weeks before baseline or five times the half-life of the drug (whichever is longer, and patients can be enrolled after wash-out) * Opioids (pethidine, tramadol, tapentadol, etc.) within two weeks before baseline or five times the half-life of the drug (whichever is longer, and patients can be enrolled after wash-out) * Cyclobenzaprine and St. John's wort within two weeks before baseline or five times the half-life of the drug (whichever is longer, and patients can be enrolled after wash-out) * The following serotonergic drugs within two weeks before baseline or five times the half-life of the drug (whichever is longer, and patients can be enrolled after wash-out), * selective serotonin (5HT1) agonists * lithium * lamotrigine * ritonavir * dapoxetine * Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) * dapoxetine * Serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) * Tricyclic or tetracyclic antidepressants * triazolopyridine antidepressant However, amitriptyline ≤ 50 mg/day, trazodone ≤ 100 mg/day, citalopram ≤ 20 mg/day, and sertraline ≤ 100 mg/day are allowed without washout. * Use of sympathomimetics (ephedrine, methylphenidate, amphetamine, methamphetamine, lisdexamfetamine, etc.) during the screening period * Use of Dextromethorphan during the screening period * Use of CYP3A4 strong inducer, CYP3A4 strong inhibitor, CYP2D6 strong inducer, and CYP2D6 strong inhibitor during the screening period * Inability to undergo MRI or PET scans * Pregnant or breastfeeding women * Fertile women or men who are unwilling to use effective contraception\* from the date of written consent until 12 weeks after the last administration of the investigational product \*Effective contraception is defined as follows, and at least one method should be used: * Hormonal contraception (oral, injectable, implantable, etc.) * Intrauterine device (IUD) or system (IUS) * Sterilization or surgical procedures (vasectomy, bilateral tubal ligation/surgery, hysterectomy) * Dual contraception methods: Simultaneous use of barrier methods (male condoms) with the methods listed above * Absolute abstinence: Total abstinence from sexual intercourse is recognized if the investigator deems the subject's age, occupation, lifestyle, or sexual orientation assures contraception.
