Inclusion Criteria Participants must meet all the following criteria to be eligible for this study: 1. Age between 60 and 85 years (inclusive, based on the date of signing the informed consent), applicable to all genders. 2. Must meet the 2024 Alzheimer's Association (AA) Workgroup revised criteria for diagnosing MCI due to AD or mild AD dementia. 3. CDR score: At screening and baseline, the CDR global score must be 0.5 or 1.0, and the CDR memory score must be 0.5 or higher. 4. MMSE score: At screening, the MMSE score must be 22 or higher. 5. Body mass index (BMI): At screening, BMI must be greater than 17 and less than 35 (inclusive). 6. History of memory decline: A history of at least 6 months of gradual and progressive memory decline prior to signing ICF must be reported and confirmed by an informant. 7. Blood p-tau 217: positive (For participants with evidence suggesting Aβ-PET positivity, absence blood p-tau 217 determination is not considered a protocol deviation.). 8. Aβ- PET scan: Visual read of Aβ-PET scan must be positive. 9. Study partner: Must have a designated study partner who can support the participants and spend at least 8 h per week with them during the study. The partner must provide a separate written informed consent and be willing and able to provide follow-up information about the participant. They should regularly spend enough time with the participants to reliably meet study requirements. The study partner does not need to live with the participant but should be easily reachable during the study. If the partner is unable to continue supporting due to health or other reasons, it is allowed to replace with another eligible partner. The replacement partner must provide a separate written informed consent and be willing and able to provide follow-up information about the participant. 10. Concomitant medication: Participants who are receiving cholinesterase inhibitors and/or memantine for AD can be enrolled into the study, but must be on a stable dose for at least 12 weeks prior to baseline. For all other (i.e., non-AD-related) allowed concomitant medications, participants must receive a stable dose (not for topical, as needed \[PRN\], or discontinued medications) for at least 4 weeks prior to baseline unless otherwise stated. 11. Contraception: a.Male participants i.Male participants, regardless of childbearing potential, if their non-pregnant female partner is a female of childbearing potential, must agree to maintain abstinence (if this is their preferred and usual lifestyle) or to use a barrier method and another highly effective (failure rate less than 1%) method of contraception (see Section 17.5 for details) until 90 days after the last dose of IP. ii.Male participants with pregnant partners should use condoms during intercourse for the duration of the study and until the end of the estimated relevant potential exposure for women of childbearing potential (WOCBP; expected to be 90 days after the last dose of IP). iii.Male participants should refrain from sperm donation for the duration of the study and until 90 days following the last dose of IP. b.Female participants i.WOCBP must use, or be willing to use, two forms of effective contraception (a barrier method and one other highly effective method of contraception, as detailed in Section 17.5) during participation in the trial and for 90 days after the last dose of the IP. ii.WOCBP potential is defined as those who are: ① Following menarche ② From the time of menarche until becoming postmenopausal unless permanently sterile (see below) A postmenopausal state is defined as no menses for 12 months without an alternative medical cause. * In the absence of 12 months of amenorrhea, confirmation with more than one follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) measurement is required. * Individuals receiving hormone replacement therapy (HRT) whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use a non-estrogenic, highly effective contraceptive method if they wish to continue their HRT during the study. Otherwise, they must discontinue HRT to allow confirmation of postmenopausal status before study enrollment. Permanent sterilization methods and gender-affirming procedures (for the purpose of this study) include: * Documented hysterectomy * Documented bilateral salpingectomy * Documented bilateral oophorectomy * For individuals with permanent infertility due to an alternate medical cause other than the above, (e.g., Mullerian agenesis, androgen insensitivity, gonadal dysgenesis), investigator discretion should be applied to determining study entry. iii.All WOCBP must be negative at Visit 1 based on a serum pregnancy test. 12. Informed consent: Must obtain a voluntary signed ICF, approved by an Ethics Committee, from the participants or their legal representative before any study procedure. 13. Language proficiency: Must be fluent in the language used at the study site. 14. Protocol compliance: Must be willing and able to comply with all aspects of the protocol. Exclusion Criteria Participants who meet any of the following exclusion criteria will not be eligible for the study: 1. History of intracranial infection or traumatic brain injury. 2. Severe coronary heart disease, cardiac insufficiency (New York Heart Association Class Ⅲ and Class IV), atrial fibrillation, and other heart diseases within six months prior to signing ICF. 3. Malignancy: * History of cancer within the last 3 years, with the exception of non-metastatic basal and/or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, in situ cervical cancer, nonprogressive prostate cancer, or other cancers with a low risk of recurrence or spread. * Intracranial space occupying lesions or brain tumors will be excluded unless, based on the opinion of the investigators and medical monitors, the medical condition will not interfere with cognitive assessments and safety. 4. Severe hematologic disorders, such as myelodysplastic syndrome, aplastic anemia, lymphoma, leukemia, etc. 5. Peptic ulcer or obstruction or other diseases that affect the absorption of oral medication. 6. Any neurological disorder that may cause cognitive impairment beyond the impact of AD. 7. Any psychiatric diagnosis or neuropsychiatric symptom (such as hallucinations, major depression, or delusions) that may interfere with the participant's study procedure. 8. A history of transient ischemic attack (TIA), stroke, or seizure in the 12 months prior to signing ICF. 9. The Hachinski Ischemic Index Scale (HIS) at screening \> 4 points. 10. ECG at screening or at baseline showing prolonged QTcF \[Fridericia correction formula, see Section 17.4\] (QTcF \> 480 ms in women; QTcF \> 470 ms in men) or other clinically significant abnormalities of the ECG that are considered by the investigator to be unsuitable for participation in a clinical study (e.g., heart rate \< 50 beats/min, sinus node lesions, Morse II or third-degree atrioventricular block, etc.). 11. The Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) score at screening ≥ 8 points. 12.

Participants with inadequately controlled bleeding disorder (including platelet count \< 100,000/µL or international normalized ratio \[INR\] \> 1.5). 17. Thyroid stimulating hormone levels above or below the normal range. Participants with results of other thyroid function tests that fall outside the normal range will be excluded only if they are considered clinically significant by the investigator. 18. Laboratory test results for serum vitamin B12 levels below the normal range, as well as participants who are receiving vitamin B12 supplement therapy. 19. Positive serological finding for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), active syphilis, Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), or Hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody. 20. Any other clinically significant abnormalities in physical examination, vital signs, laboratory tests, or ECG present at screening or baseline that the investigator determines the situations that affected the safety of the participants or other interferences with the study. 21.
