Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

1. The subject is either male or female and ≥ 75 years of age.

2. The subject has OAB as determined by ICS criteria

3. The subject has mild cognitive impairment as determined by NIA criteria

4. The subject is competent to give informed consent and perform the tasks associated with the study

5. The subject has a body mass index (BMI) between 18.0 to 30.0 kg/m2 inclusive.

6. Written informed consent has been obtained.

7. The subject is available to complete the study.

8. At training visits (visit 2): the subject has performed at or above the minimum level on at least one occasion for each individual task measure in cognitive function test training.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. The subject does not have OAB.

2. The subject has either dementia or moderate to severe cognitive impairment at screening.

3. The subject has probable clinical depression as determined by Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) short form >5 at screening.

4. Subjects taking any cognitive enhancers (cholinesterase inhibitors or memantine).

5. The subject has a history of allergy to the study drug(s), to any component of the dosage form or any other allergy, which, in the opinion of the Investigator, contraindicates their participation.

6. The subject has any clinically significant abnormal heart rate or blood pressure measurements, at the screening visit, which, in the opinion of the Investigator, prevent safe participation in the study. (dBP< 60mmHg or > 90mmHg, sBP < 95mmHg or > 160mmHg or HR < 40bpm or > 100bpm).

7. Subjects with known history of urinary retention, severe gastrointestinal obstruction (including paralytic ileus or intestinal atony) or severe gastrointestinal conditions (including toxic megacolon or ulcerative colitis), myasthenia gravis, uncontrolled narrow angle glaucoma or shallow interior chamber or subjects deemed to be at risk for these conditions.

8. Subjects undergoing haemodialysis or who have severe renal impairment.

9. Subjects with severe hepatic impairment, defined as Child-Pugh grade IV.

10. Subjects taking potent CYP 3A4 inhibitors which would, under normal circumstances, require adjustment of the dose of the test drugs.

11. Subject has taken prescribed medication within 14 days prior to the first study day or over-the-counter medicine (including vitamins and herbal remedies) within 48 hours prior to the first study day, which in the opinion of the Investigator, will interfere with the study procedures or compromise safety.

12. Subject has an average weekly alcohol intake of greater than 21 units (male) or 14 units (female) within the 90 days prior to the study. 1 unit is 270cc of beer, 40cc of spirits or 125cc of wine.

13. History of smoking more than 10 cigarettes (or the equivalent amount of tobacco) per day within the 90 days prior to the study.

14. Subject has participated in any clinical study within the last 90 days.

15. Any clinically significant abnormality following Investigator review of the pre study physical examination.

16. Any clinical condition, which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would not allow safe completion of the study.

17. Any subjects who, in the opinion of the investigator, may find it difficult to adhere to the provisions of treatment and observation specified in the protocol.
