About this study

Official title: Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of 36 Weeks of Treatment With NLY01 in Early-stage Parkinson's Disease

This is a phase 2 study designed to assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of NLY01 in subjects with early untreated Parkinson's disease (PD). Evidence suggests NLY01, a pegylated form of exenatide, may be beneficial in PD and is being developed as a potential treatment for neurodegenerative disorders.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale in combined score of Parts II and III from baseline to 36 weeks

    This is the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale assessment (MDS-UPDRS). The investigator will assess II and III components of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale. The Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale Part II assesses motor aspects of experiences of daily living. The Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale Part III assesses motor signs of Parkinson's Disease.

    The Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale is a widely used assessment to quantify the signs and symptoms of Parkinson's Disease. Each subscale has 0-4 ratings, where 0=normal, 1=slight, 2=mild, 3=moderate and 4=severe. The scale is completed by the investigator and scores are derived from clinician and subject input to allow the assessment of symptomatic worsening and improvement.

    Measured: 36 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing NLY01 in people with Parkinson Disease, run by Neuraly, Inc. at 61 sites in 2 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 19 Sep 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 61 sites in United States, Canada. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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 in Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale in combined score of Parts II and III from baseline to 36 weeks (time frame: 36 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04154072, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 19 Sep 2024.
