What is being measured

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

  1. Anti-dyskinetic efficacy as measured by the modified AIMS (Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale) total score. To assess how titration of AFQ056 at 2-week intervals affects tolerability profile

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Anti-dyskinetic efficacy as measured by the Lang-Fahn Activities of Daily Living Dyskinesia Scale (LFADLDS)

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Change from baseline on patient's disability caused by the dyskinesia as assessed by a clinician-rated global impression of change (CGIC)

    Measured: 12 weeks

  3. Total ON- and OFF-times and ON-time with dyskinesia and with troublesome dyskinesias (patient diary)

    Measured: 12 weeks

  4. Anti-dyskinetic efficacy as measured by items 32, 33 and 34 of Part IV of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS )

    Measured: 12 weeks

  5. Safety of AFQ056 as measured by changes in vital signs, laboratory values, electrocardiogram and number of Adverse Events

    Measured: 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AFQ056 in people with Dyskinesias and Parkinson Disease, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 28 sites in 7 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 2 inclusion and 4 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 23 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 28 sites in Germany, France, Spain, Hungary, Italy and 2 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. 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?

Anti-dyskinetic efficacy as measured by the modified AIMS (Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale) total score. To assess how titration of AFQ056 at 2-week intervals affects tolerability profile (time frame: 12 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 NCT01385592, 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 23 Dec 2020.
