Registered outcomes4

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryThe Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (UDysRS)Change from baseline to week 14 (end of study) on the Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale
The Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (UDysRS) will be the primary outcome measure for this study. This choice is based on the outcome of the Validation of Dyskinesia Rating Scales study. In this study, the UDysRS was identified as the most sensitive scale to detect change in dyskinesia in an 8-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of amatadine. The UDysRS utilizes rater information, patient self-report and objective measures of dyskinesia to provide assessments of impairment and disability due to dyskinesia. Score ranges are 0-108 with higher scores representing more severe impairment.
OtherClinical Global Impression - Change ScoreAssessed at Week 10 and 14 by blinded treating physician and subjectThe Clinical Global Impression - Change score is an ordinal measure of change with a range of 0 (not assessed) to 7 (very much worse). A score of 4 is associated with "no change".
OtherMovement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS)Assessed at baseline, week 6, week 10 and week 14
This is a 4-part scale that rates both non-motor and motor (including dyskinesia) aspects of Parkinson's disease. Parts of the scales will be completed by the blinded treating physician while assessing the subject and other parts will be self-completed by the subject
