About this study

Official title: A Multi-center, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Selegiline for the Treatment of Excessive Daytime Sleepiness in Parkinson's Disease

This is a multi-center, open-label, single-arm 8-week investigation of Selegiline for treatment of EDS in PD patients.

Read the detailed description

This is a multi-center, open-label, single-arm 8-week investigation of Selegiline. Subjects who have a diagnosis of PD based on UK brain bank criteria with ESS> 7 will be received Selegiline as an adjunctive therapy or monotherapy. This study will assess the impact of Selegiline treatment on the severity of sleep disturbances among PD patients.

Being tested
Selegiline
Medical subject headings
Parkinson Disease

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • SelegilineDrug

    Also called ELDEPRYL

    Subjects will receive one Selegiline tablet (5 mg) per day administered at breakfast. The initial dose of Selegiline is 5 mg/day and be up-titrated in 2-week intervals in increments of 5 mg up to 10 mg (which can be taken at breakfast or divided doses of 5 mg each taken at breakfast and lunch) according to the investigator's judgment, based on individual clinical response and tolerability.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
SelegilineExperimentalSubjects who meet all of the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria will be received Selegiline.The study medication dosage will be escalated from 5mg/daily to the target dose(5~10mg/daily) in 2 weeks and then maintained for the remaining 6 weeks.
Receives: Drug: Selegiline

What is being measured

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

  1. The mean change of ESS score will be assessed from baseline to 8 weeks when given Selegiline as an adjunctive therapy or monotherapy in PD patients with daytime sleepiness.

    This outcome was used to assess relationships among changes in ESS from baseline to the endpoint.

    Measured: 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. The proportion of patients with daytime sleepiness (ESS> 7) will be evaluated at the baseline and after 8 weeks treatment.

    This outcome corresponds to the number of patients with daytime sleepiness.

    Measured: 8 weeks

  2. The mean change of PDQ-8 scores will be assessed from baseline to 8 weeks of treatment.

    This outcome reflects change of patients'daily quality.

    Measured: 8 weeks

  3. The mean change of UPDRS IV items 32 and 39 scores will be assessed from baseline to 8 weeks of treatment.

    This outcome corresponds to motor complications.

    Measured: 8 weeks

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

The mean change of ESS score will be assessed from baseline to 8 weeks when given Selegiline as an adjunctive therapy or monotherapy in PD patients with daytime sleepiness. (time frame: 8 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 NCT04870372, which also lists 2 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.
