About this study

Official title: The Efficacy of 23mg Versus 10mg of Donepezil in ParkInson's Disease With Dementia

The purpose of this study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of high-dose donepezil (23mg) in Parkinson's disease with dementia compared to standard dose donepezil.

Read the detailed description

This study is open-label, prospective, randomized paralleled study. The investigators evaluate the efficacy of high-dose donepezil in patients with Parkinson's disease with dementia (PDD) who have taken standard donepezil (10mg) for 12 weeks. The participants, who sign the informed consent, are assigned into two groups randomly (high-dose donepezil group and standard donepezil group). All participants will be maintained the medication for 24 weeks and assessed cognitive function at 24 weeks. They will visit to clinic for 3 times (4, 12, 24 weeks) to assess cognitive function and adverse event. After the end of study, all participants were administrated by standard dose donepezil again.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Donepezil in people with Parkinson's Disease, run by Inje University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 7 inclusion and 10 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Aug 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Sangjin Kim, Professor (82-51-797-8736, jsk120@hanmail.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Korean Mini-Mental State Examination-2 (MMSE-2) (time frame: 24 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 NCT02415062, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 6 Aug 2015.
