- Safety/tolerability assessments at multiple timepoints including but not limited to screening, and through to the end of the study to week 66. [ Time Frame: 66 weeks ]
- Immune response, cognitive and functional assessments at multiple timepoints including but not limited to baseline and through to the end of the study to week 66. [ Time Frame: 66 weeks ]
- Evaluate the antibody response after 4 additional injections in the Extension study in patients initially treated with CAD106 in the Core study. [ Time Frame: 66 weeks ]
- Collect long-term safety information through SAEs collection for two years after completion of the core study, CAD106A2201, or extension study, CAD106A2201E1. [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
