PrimaryClinical Impression of Change in Severity (CI-CS) [Fields et al 2021]
CI-CS comparing Baseline (Day 1) with IB1001 versus the end of 6-weeks treatment with IB1001 (Approximately Day 42) MINUS the CI-CS comparing the end of 6-weeks treatment with IB1001 (Approximately Day 42) versus the end of 6-weeks post-treatment washout
The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity assessment will instruct the blinded rater to consider: 'compared to the first video, how has the severity of their performance on the 9 Hole Peg Test of the Dominant Hand (9HPT-D) or 8 Meter Walk Test (8MWT) changed (improved or worsened) in 6-weeks as observed in the second video?' The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity is evaluated on a 7 point Likert scale (+3=significantly improved to -3= significantly worse).
SecondaryKey Secondary Endpoint: Individual Components of the CI-CSBaseline to end of treatment with IB1001 (Parent Study 6-weeks treatment);End of treatment with IB1001 to the end of post 6-week treatment washout
The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity assessment will instruct the blinded rater to consider: 'compared to the first video, how has the severity of their performance on the 9 Hole Peg Test of the Dominant Hand (9HPT-D) or 8 Meter Walk Test (8MWT) changed (improved or worsened) in 6-weeks as observed in the second video?' The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity is evaluated on a 7 point Likert scale (+3=significantly improved to -3= significantly worse).
SecondaryKey Secondary Endpoint: Change in Severity Based on Average CI-SCI-CS comparing baseline period and end of treatment period minus the change in CI-S between end of treatment period and end of washout period.
The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity assessment will instruct the blinded rater to consider: 'compared to the first video, how has the severity of their performance on the 9 Hole Peg Test of the Dominant Hand (9HPT-D) or 8 Meter Walk Test (8MWT) changed (improved or worsened) in 6-weeks as observed in the second video?' The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity is evaluated on a 7 point Likert scale (+3=significantly improved to -3= significantly worse).
SecondaryKey Secondary Endpoint: CI-CS Score Reclassified on a 3-Point ScaleBaseline to end of treatment with IB1001 (Parent Study 6-weeks treatment);End of treatment with IB1001 to the end of post 6-week treatment washout
The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity assessment will instruct the blinded rater to consider: 'compared to the first video, how has the severity of their performance on the 9 Hole Peg Test of the Dominant Hand (9HPT-D) or8 Meter Walk Test (8MWT) changed (improved or worsened) in 6-weeks as observed in the second video?' The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity is evaluated on a 7 point Likert scale (+3=significantly improved to -3= significantly worse). CI-CS scores \<0 were reclassified as worsened (-1), CI-CS scores 0 remained classified as not changed (0), and CI-CS scores \>0 were reclassified as improved (+1).
SecondaryKey Secondary Endpoint: CI-CS Score for the Non-Primary Anchor TestCI-CS of the non-primary anchor test was evaluated, comparing the CI-CS of Visit 4 versus Visit 2 and of Visit 6 versus Visit 4 as done for the primary anchor test.The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity is evaluated on a 7 point Likert scale (+3=significantly improved to -3= significantly worse).
SecondarySpinocerebellar Ataxia Functional Index (SCAFI) [Schmitz-Hübsch et al, 2008]Baseline to end of treatment with IB1001 (Parent Study 6-weeks treatment); End of treatment with IB1001 to the end of post 6-week treatment washout
Spinocerebellar Ataxia Functional Index (SCAFI) is composed of 8 Meter Walk Test, 9-Hole Peg Test of Dominant and Non-Dominant Hand (9HPT-D/9HPT-ND) (the 3 tests are timed assessments; each is done twice and values are averaged; the 8MWT and 9HPT-D and 9HPT-ND values are converted from times to rates, and the results expressed as a composite Z-score of each test relative to baseline) and the PATA rate (counted number how often a patient can repeat the syllables "PATA" within 10 seconds), a measure of speech performance. The scores of these 3 were transformed to Z-scores (=individual's average of both trials to perform the respective task - mean of study population at baseline) / SD of study population at baseline). A Z-score of 0 equates to the population mean at baseline. For all 3, higher Z-scores (above mean) mean better performance. The SCAFI total score was calculated as the arithmetic mean of the non-missing Z-scores for the 3. A higher total score means better performance.
SecondaryScale for Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) Score [Schmitz-Hübsch et al, 2006; Subramony, 2007]Baseline to end of treatment with IB1001 (Parent Study 6-weeks treatment); End of treatment with IB1001 to the end of post 6-week treatment washout
The Scale for Assessment and Rating of Ataxia has 8 items that are related to gait, stance, sitting, speech, finger-chase test, nose-finger test, fast alternating movements, and heel-shin test. The range is 0-40 points, with a lower score representing neurological improvement and a higher score representing neurological worsening.
SecondaryEuroQuol- 5 Dimension (EQ-5D) Quality of Life Scale: Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)Baseline to end of treatment with IB1001 (Parent Study 6-weeks treatment); End of treatment with IB1001 to the end of post 6-week treatment washout
For posting, health-related quality of life based on the EQ-5D visual analogue scale (VAS) was presented as a secondary endpoint. EQ-5D VAS is a 0-100 scale where patients are asked to indicate their overall health, with a score of 0 indicating worst health and a score of 100 indicating best health.
SecondaryModified Disability Rating Scale (mDRS) [Iturriaga et al. 2006]Baseline to end of treatment with IB1001 (Parent Study 6-weeks treatment); End of treatment with IB1001 to the end of post 6-week treatment washout
Overall neurological status based on six domains (ambulation, manipulation, language, swallowing, seizures and ocular movements). The Modified Disability Rating Scale ranges from 0-24, where 0 is the best neurological status and 24 is the worst.
SecondaryInvestigator's Clinical Global Impressions of Change (CGI-C)Baseline to end of treatment with IB1001 (Parent Study 6-weeks treatment); End of treatment with IB1001 to the end of post 6-week treatment washoutThe Clinical Global Impression of Change assessed by the investigator is evaluated on a 7 point Likert scale ranging from 1='very much improved' to 7='very much worse'
