  3. Change From Baseline in Spiralometry Measurement at the End of Maintenance (Right Hand)

    Change (reduction) in tremor amplitude from baseline to end of study for the right hand

    Measured: Week 0 to weeks 9-16 (Visit 3)

  4. Change From Baseline in Spiralometry Measurement at the End of Maintenance (Left Hand)

    Change (reduction) in tremor amplitude from baseline to end of study for the left hand

    Measured: Week 0 to weeks 9-16 (Visit 3)

  5. Change From Baseline in Tremor Score From UPDRS (Items 16, 20, 21) at the End of Maintenance (Visit 3)

    Change (reduction)in tremor score from baseline to end of study. Score ranging from 0 - 32 (0=no tremor, 32=high tremor)

    Measured: Week 0 to weeks 9-16 (Visit 3)

  6. Change From Baseline in 39 Item Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ-39) Score at the End of Maintenance

    Change (reduction) in PDQ-39 score (quality of life) from baseline to end of study. Score ranging from 0-100 (0=perfect health, 100=worst health as assessed by the measure)

    Measured: Week 0 to weeks 9-16 (Visit 3)

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Final Dose Distribution

    Final Mirapexin® dose distribution at the end of study

    Measured: Enter Week 0 to weeks 9-16 (Visit 3)

  2. Change From Baseline in UPDRS Part II Score at the End of Up-titration

    Change (reduction) in UPDRS Part II score (activities of daily living) from baseline to Visit 2. Score ranging from 0 - 52 (0=no disability, 52=maximum disability)

    Measured: Enter Week 0 to weeks 1-8 (Visit 2)

  3. Change From Baseline in UPDRS Part III Score at the End of Up-titration

    Change (reduction) in UPDRS Part III score (motor function) from baseline to Visit 2. Score ranging from 0 - 108 (0=no disability, 108=maximum disability)

    Measured: Enter Week 0 to weeks 1-8 (Visit 2)

  4. Change in Tremor Score (UPDRS Items 16, 20, 21) at the End of Up-titration

    Change (reduction) from baseline in tremor score, derived from UPDRS from baseline to Visit 2. Score ranging from 0 - 32 (0=no tremor, 32=high tremor)

    Measured: Enter Week 0 to weeks 1-8 (Visit 2)

  5. Incidence, Relationship and Seriousness of Adverse Events

    Total number of adverse events (AEs), causality and level of seriousness

    Measured: Week 0 to weeks 9-16 (end of study)

  6. Number of Premature Discontinuations

    Number of patients discontinuing the study prematurely

    Measured: Week 0 to weeks 9-16 (end of study)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Parkinson Disease, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 215 sites in 8 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Apr 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 215 sites in Romania, Slovakia, Latvia, Serbia, Russia and 3 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Sep 2010). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change From Baseline in Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Part II Score at the End of Maintenance (time frame: Week 0 to weeks 9-16 (Visit 3)). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Apr 2014.
