Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Modified Bond-Lader Visual Analog Scale Score After 50-mg Dose (Day 2)
Time Frame: At 1 hour post-dose, Day 2 (50 mg)
The Modified Bond-Lader Visual Analog Scale (VAS) uses a 100 mm line, each with a set of opposing adjectives at either end:Alert (=0) - Drowsy (=100); If patient is sleeping the Bond-Lader VAS will be assign a score of 100.
At 1 hour post-dose, Day 2 (50 mg)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Modified Bond-Lader Visual Analog Scale Score After 100-mg Dose (Day 3)
Time Frame: At 1 hour post-dose, Day 3 (100 mg)
The Modified Bond-Lader Visual Analog Scale (VAS) uses a 100 mm line, each with a set of opposing adjectives at either end:Alert (=0) - Drowsy (=100); If patient is sleeping the Bond-Lader VAS will be assign a score of 100.
At 1 hour post-dose, Day 3 (100 mg)
Modified Bond-Lader Visual Analog Scale Score After 200-mg Dose (Day 4)
Time Frame: At 1 hour post-dose, Day 4 (200 mg)
The Modified Bond-Lader Visual Analog Scale (VAS) uses a 100 mm line, each with a set of opposing adjectives at either end:Alert (=0) - Drowsy (=100); If patient is sleeping the Bond-Lader VAS will be assign a score of 100.
At 1 hour post-dose, Day 4 (200 mg)
Modified Bond-Lader Visual Analog Scale Score After 300-mg Dose (Day 5)
Time Frame: At 1 hour post-dose, Day 5 (300 mg)

Maximum Intensity Modified Bond-Lader Visual Analog Scale Score
Time Frame: During Day 2 (50 mg)
The Maximum Intensity Modified Bond-Lader VAS after dose (MaxIntVAS) is calculated as maximum possible value of VAS during that day at any from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 12, 13, 14 hours post-dose assessments
During Day 2 (50 mg)
Time to Maximum Intensity Modified Bond-Lader Visual Analog Scale Score
Time Frame: During Day 2 (50 mg)
Time (Tmax) to Maximum Intensity Modified Bond-Lader VAS after dose is corresponding assessment time (one from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 12, 13, 14 hours post-dose) of MaxIntVas
During Day 2 (50 mg)
Area Under the Modified Bond-Lader Visual Analog Scale-time Curve
Time Frame: During Day 2 (50 mg)
Area under the Modified Bond-Lader VAS-time curve is calculated by the linear trapezoidal formula which equals sum of (Ck+Ck+1)/2 multiplied by the time interval between k and k+1 observations, where Ck and Ck+1 are the corresponding the intensity of sedation evaluations measured by the Modified Bond-Lader VAS from 1 to 14 hours post-dose
During Day 2 (50 mg)
Change in Simpson-Angus Scale (SAS) Total Score
Time Frame: Randomization to Day 7
SAS total score is the sum of the 10 individual-item scores (range:0-40), with the score for each item ranging from 0 to 4, higher scores indicate greater severity of Parkinsonian symptoms. Change : total score at day 7 minus total score at randomization. Increase in Change of total score indicates an increase in extrapyramidal motor symptoms.

Time Frame: Randomization to Day 7
BARS global score is the 4th individual-item score on the BARS scale,the Global Assessment of Akathisia, with the score ranging from 0 to 5. Change : score at day 7 minus score at randomization. Increase in Change of BARS global score indicates an increase in akathisia.

Change in Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) Total Score
Time Frame: Randomization to Day 7
AIMS total score is the sum of the 10 individual-item scores (range:0-40), with the score for each item ranging from 0 to 4. Change : total score at day 7 minus total score at randomization. Increase in Change of total score indicates an increase in abnormal voluntary movements.
Randomization to Day 7
Number of Patients With Potential Extrapyramidal Symptoms (EPS)
Time Frame: From start of the study treatment to last dose plus 30 days
Number of patients with adverse events potentially associated with EPS collected by MedDRA Preferred Terms as akathisia, extrapyramidal disorder, restlessness
