Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Percentage of Patients With Adverse Events, Adverse Drug Reactions, Serious Adverse Events | 80 weeks (patients from 248.524) or 72 weeks (patients from 248.636) | The aim of this study was to obtain long-term safety and tolerability data on pramipexole ER, in patients who have previously completed a pramipexole double blind study in early PD (248.524 (NCT00479401) or 248.636 (NCT00558025)). Therefore these items were considered as a safety evaluation |
| Secondary | Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) II+III Total Score: Change From Baseline | Open Label (OL) baseline and week 80 (patients from 248.524) or week 72 (patients from 248.636) | UPDRS II+III ranging from 0 (normal) to 160 (severe). UPDRS part II measures activities of daily living, part III measures motor symptoms |
| Secondary | Number of Patients With UPDRS II+III Response From OL Baseline at Week 80 (Patients From 248.524) or Week 72 (Patients From 248.636) | OL Baseline and week 80 (patients from 248.524) or week 72 (patients from 248.636) | A response means an improvement of \>=20% from OL baseline. UPDRS II+III ranging from 0 (normal) to 160 (severe). UPDRS part II measures activities of daily living, part III measures motor symptoms |
| Secondary | UPDRS I Total Score: Change From OL Baseline | OL baseline and week 80 (patients from 248.524) or week 72 (patients from 248.636) | UPDRS I ranging from 0 (normal) to 16 (severe), measures Mentation, Behavior and Mood |
| Secondary | UPDRS II Total Score: Change From OL Baseline | OL baseline and week 80 (patients from 248.524) or week 72 (patients from 248.636) | UPDRS II ranging from 0 (normal) to 52 (severe), measures activity of daily living. |
| Secondary | UPDRS III Total Score: Change From OL Baseline | OL baseline and week 80 (patients from 248.524) or week 72 (patients from 248.636) | UPDRS III ranging from 0 (normal) to 108 (severe) measures motor symptoms |
| Secondary | Response in Clinical Global Impression of Improvement (CGI-I) | OL Baseline and week 32 (patients from 248.524) or week 24 (patients from 248.636) | Clinicians evaluation in a rating scale of 7 steps, 1 meaning very much improved to 7 meaning very much worse. For patients previously treated with Placebo, all patients with at least "much improved" were considered as responders. For patients previously treated with Pramipexole ER or Immediate Release (IR), all patients with no change to very much improved were considered as responders |
| Secondary | Response in Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) | OL Baseline and week 32 (patients from 248.524) or week 24 (patients from 248.636) | Patient rated evaluation of the PD symptoms on a rating scale of 7 steps, 1 meaning very much better to 7 meaning very much worse. For patients previously treated with Placebo, all patients with at least "much better" were considered as responders. For patients previously treated with pramipexole (PPX) ER or IR, all patients with no change to very much better were considered as responders |
| Secondary | Parkinson Fatigue Scale (PFS-16) : Change From OL Baseline | OL baseline and week 80 (patients from 248.524) or week 72 (patients from 248.636) | PFS-16 ranging from 16 (better perceived health status) to 80 (severe symptoms of the disease) measuring aspects of fatigue that are relevant to patients with PD. |
| Secondary | Number of Patients Introducing L-Dopa Medication in OL Trial | 80 weeks (patients from 248.524) or 72 weeks (patients from 248.636) | Number of patients requiring Levodopa supplementation during the study |
