Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
* Male or female subjects = 50 and = 85 years of age at time of informed consent.
* Diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment OR mild dementia due to either: Parkinson's disease associated with REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD+PD) and positive response to the RBD Single-Question Screen (RBD1Q) and without hallucinations; OR Alzheimer's Disease (AD).
* For subjects taking anti-Parkinsonian medication: stable daily dosing for at least 1 month prior to Screening and through the End of Study
* If the subject is taking a single drug for AD (e.g., donepezil or other cholinesterase inhibitors or memantine; dual therapy is excluded), they must have been on a stable dose for at least 2 months prior to Day 1, and the dose must remain unchanged during the study unless required for management of adverse events (AEs).
* Cognitive decline not primarily caused by traumatic, or medical problems (alternative causes of cognitive decline are ruled out).
* Adequate visual and auditory abilities to perform all aspects of the cognitive and functional assessments.
* Has a spouse or caregiver who can accompany the subject at specified study visits (if required based on cognitive function).
* A score of greater than or equal to one standard deviation below age and educational norms in the Digit Symbol Substitution Test (DSST) during screening or within 6 months prior to Screening.
* Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score = 18 and = 26.
* Adaptive criteria for enrollment based on the locus ceruleus (LC) neuromelanin sensitive magnetic resonance imaging (NM-MRI) contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR).
* Unless confirmed to be azoospermic (vasectomized or secondary to medical cause), males must agree to use a male condom from Day 1 until the follow-up visit when having penile-vaginal intercourse with a woman of childbearing potential who is not currently pregnant. Note: Men with a pregnant or breastfeeding partner must agree to remain abstinent from penile-vaginal intercourse or use a condom during each episode of penile-vaginal penetration until after the Follow-Up Visit.
* Females of childbearing potential (i.e., not postmenopausal or surgically sterile) who have a male partner must have a negative serum pregnancy test result and must agree to one of the following from start of Screening through 30 days after the last study medication administration: use a highly effective method of birth control; or monogamous relationship with a male partner of confirmed sterility; or practice complete abstinence.
* Females of non-childbearing potential may be enrolled if it is documented that they are postmenopausal.
* Body weight greater or equal to 50 kg and body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 35 kg/m2, inclusive at Screening.
* Stable medical conditions for 3 months prior to Screening visit (e.g., controlled hypertension, dyslipidemia).
* Willing to follow the protocol requirements and comply with protocol restrictions.
* Capable of providing informed consent and complying with study procedures.

* History of malignant disease within 5 years, including solid tumors and hematologic malignancies (except basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas of the skin that have been completely excised and are considered cured).
* Any clinically significant illness or disease as determined by medical and surgical history, physical examination, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) and clinical laboratory assessments conducted at Screening.
* Clinically significant abnormalities of ECG, including QTcF > 450 ms, for males and QTcF > 470 ms for females, and/or HR < 50 beats per minute, or evidence of clinically significant bundle branch blocks, as indicated by 12-lead ECG during the Screening Period.
* A calculated creatinine clearance of =60 mL/min according to the Cockcroft-Gault equation.
* Current use of any prohibited prescription medication, over-the-counter medication, or herbal supplements including green tea/products during Screening or throughout study, unless approved by both the Investigator and the Sponsor Medical Monitor.

* Positive screening test for hepatitis C antibody (HCV Ab) or current hepatitis B infection (defined as positive for hepatitis B surface antigen [HBsAg] at Screening). Subjects with immunity to hepatitis B (defined as negative HbsAg and positive hepatitis B surface antibody [HbsAb]) are eligible to participate in the study.
* Positive screening test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
* Current infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).
* Females who are breastfeeding.
* Any other reason for which the PI considers it is not in the best interest of the participant to undertake the study.
