About this study

Official title: A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group, Proof of Concept Trial to Assess the Tolerability, Safety, and Efficacy of Rotigotine Nasal Spray for the Acute Treatment of "OFF" Symptoms in Subjects With Advanced-Stage, Idiopathic Parkinson Disease

The objective of this trial is to evaluate safety and efficacy of rotigotine nasal spray (SPM 952) in a single dose application scheme.

Subjects will undergo a 2 - 28 days screening period in which eligibility criteria will be checked. Subjects will then be hospitalized for one night. In the morning of the next day, subjects will be randomly assigned either to rotigotine or placebo nasal spray and will then receive a single dose of trial medication. Safety assessments after application include adverse events, 12-lead electrocardiograms, blood pressure and heart rate assessments, and laboratory checks. Efficacy will be assessed by application of motor examination scores.

The first subject is planned to be enrolled in February 2006. The last subject is planned to be enrolled in May 2006. Last subject out is expected for August 2006.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Subjects Who Complete the Trial

    Measured: 15 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change From Baseline at 24 Minutes Post-dose in Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Part III Motor Examination

    The Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) is a scale for the assessment of function in Parkinson's disease. UPDRS Part III measures Motor Examination. Range: 0 (Best score possible) to 56 (Worst score possible) Change = 24 minute value minus baseline value.

    Measured: Baseline, and 24 minutes post-dose

  2. Change From Baseline to 34 Minutes Post-dose in Tapping Rate (Taps/Min)

    One-minute tapping rate will be calculated as the number of times a subject could tap on two 4 x 4 cm marks placed on a board 30 cm apart during 1 minute (30 cm measured from the inner border of the two boxes).

    Measured: Baseline and 34 minutes post-dose

  3. "Success Rate" (Percentage of Subjects Achieving "Off" Reversals)

    Subjects reversing from "off" to "on" following initiation of treatment. "On" and "off" state refer to periods where Parkinson's disease symptoms are not present ("on") and periods where symptoms are present ("off"); the "on"/"off" determination at each assessment timepoint was made by the investigator.

    Measured: Up to 6 hours post-dose

  4. Time of First "Off" Reversal

    Number of minutes to first reversal of symptoms from "off" to "on". Estimated via Kaplan-Meier estimation method. "On" and "off" state refer to periods where Parkinson's disease symptoms are not present ("on") and periods where symptoms are present ("off"); the "on"/"off" determination at each assessment timepoint was made by the investigator.

    Measured: Up to 6 hours post-dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Rotigotine nasal spray in people with Parkinson's Disease, run by UCB Pharma.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 2 Oct 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 Jan 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?

Number of Subjects Who Complete the Trial (time frame: 15 days). 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 2 Oct 2014.
