Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) Graded By Severity, Serious TEAEs and Trial Discontinuation Due to TEAEs | From the first dose of study drug (in current study) up to 21 days after the last dose of study drug (up to approximately 29 weeks) | An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical trial participant administered a medicinal product that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. An SAE: AE that results in the appearance of (or worsening of any pre-existing) undesirable signs, symptoms, or medical conditions i.e. fatal, life-threatening, result in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, constitutes a congenital anomaly/birth defect, and requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization. A TEAE is defined as an AE that started after trial drug treatment; or if the event was continuous from baseline and was worsening, serious, trial drug-related, or resulted in death, discontinuation, interruption, or reduction of trial therapy. TEAEs were graded as, Mild: Discomfort noticed, but no disruption to daily activity, Moderate: Discomfort sufficient to reduce or affect normal daily activity, and Severe: Inability to work or perform normal daily activity. |
| Primary | Number of Participants With Potentially Clinically Relevant Abnormalities in Vital Signs | Baseline (current study) up to Week 26 | Vital signs measurements included body weight, body temperature, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and heart rate. Blood pressure (i.e., SBP, DBP) and heart rate were measured in the supine and standing positions after the participant had been in each position for at least 3 minutes. The participants were categorized based on the clinically relevant vital sign values as per protocol-predefined criteria. The categories with at least one participant with clinically significant value outside the normal range for vital signs are reported. |
| Primary | Number of Participants With Potentially Clinically Relevant Electrocardiogram (ECG) Abnormalities | Baseline (current study) up to Week 26 | Twelve-lead ECG recordings were obtained after the participant was supine and at rest for at least 5 minutes. Criteria for identifying ECG measurements of potential clinical relevance included Rate: Tachycardia (Vent ≥110 beats per minute \[bpm\]; increase ≥15bpm), Bradycardia (Vent ≤ 60bpm; decrease ≥15bpm); Rhythm: Sinus tachycardia (≥ 110bpm; an increase of ≥15 bpm), Sinus bradycardia (≤ 60bpm; a decrease of ≥15 bpm), Supraventricular premature beat (not present at baseline and present post-baseline), Conduction: Right bundle branch block (not present at baseline and present post-baseline) and ST/T Morphology: Symmetrical T-Wave Inversion (not present at baseline and present post-baseline). The categories with at least one participant with clinically relevant ECG abnormalities are reported. |
| Primary | Number of Participants With Potentially Clinically Relevant Laboratory Test Abnormalities | Baseline (current study) up to Week 26 | Laboratory assessments included - serum chemistry including prolactin and thyrotropin, hematology, and urinalysis. Number of participants with potentially clinically relevant laboratory test abnormalities were reported as per criteria defined in SAP. The categories with at least one participant with clinically relevant value outside the normal range for laboratory assessments are reported. |
| Primary | Number of Participants With Potentially Clinically Relevant Abnormal Physical Examination Values | Baseline (current study) up to Week 26 | Physical examination included measurement of height and the examination of the head, ears, eyes, nose, and throat (HEENT); thorax; abdomen; urogenital; extremities; neurological; and skin and mucosae. Participants with abnormal values, as assessed by the investigator were reported. |
| Primary | Number of Participants With Suicidality as Measured by Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) | Baseline (current study) up to Week 26 | Suicidality as defined as at least one occurrence of suicidal ideation or suicidal behavior, was assessed using C-SSRS. The assessment included "yes" or "no" responses for 5 questions, each related to suicidal ideation (wish to be dead, non-specific active suicidal thoughts, active suicidal ideation with any methods, active suicidal ideation with some intent, active suicidal ideation with specific plan) \& suicidal behavior (preparatory acts or behavior, aborted attempt, interrupted attempt, actual attempt, suicide). Numeric ratings were provided for suicidal ideation: Score range of 1 (wish to be dead) to 5 (active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent), higher total scores indicate more suicidal ideation; Suicidal behavior: Score range of 0 (no suicidal behavior) to 4 (actual suicide attempt), higher total scores indicate more suicidal behavior. Number of participants with at least one occurrence of suicidal ideation or suicidal behavior was reported. |
| Primary | Change From Baseline in Simpson Angus Scale (SAS) Total Score at Week 2 | Baseline and Week 2 | SAS was used to evaluate extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS). The SAS consists of a list of 10 symptoms of Parkinsonism (gait, arm dropping, shoulder shaking, elbow rigidity, wrist rigidity, head rotation, glabella tap, tremor, salivation, and akathisia). Severity of each item was rated on a 5-point Likert scale, with a score of 0 (absence of symptoms) to 4 (severe condition). The SAS total score is the sum of the scores of all 10 items, ranging from 0 to 40 where a higher score indicates a severe condition. Negative change from baseline indicates absence of symptoms. |
| Primary | Change From Baseline in SAS Total Score at Week 14 | Baseline and Week 14 | SAS was used to evaluate extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS). The SAS consists of a list of 10 symptoms of Parkinsonism (gait, arm dropping, shoulder shaking, elbow rigidity, wrist rigidity, head rotation, glabella tap, tremor, salivation, and akathisia). Severity of each item was rated on a 5-point Likert scale, with a score of 0 (absence of symptoms) to 4 (severe condition). The SAS total score is the sum of the scores of all 10 items, ranging from 0 to 40 where a higher score indicates a severe condition. Negative change from baseline indicates absence of symptoms. |
| Primary | Change From Baseline in SAS Total Score at Week 26 | Baseline and Week 26 | SAS was used to evaluate extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS). The SAS consists of a list of 10 symptoms of Parkinsonism (gait, arm dropping, shoulder shaking, elbow rigidity, wrist rigidity, head rotation, glabella tap, tremor, salivation, and akathisia). Severity of each item was rated on a 5-point Likert scale, with a score of 0 (absence of symptoms) to 4 (severe condition). The SAS total score is the sum of the scores of all 10 items, ranging from 0 to 40 where a higher score indicates a severe condition. Negative change from baseline indicates absence of symptoms. |
| Primary | Change From Baseline in Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) Total Score at Week 2 | Baseline and Week 2 | The AIMS is a 12-item scale. The first 10 items are rated on a Likert 5-point scale from 0 to 4 (0 = best, 4 = worst). An item score of 0, depending on specific item, means either "no abnormal Involuntary movement (AIM)" or "no incapacitation due to AIM" or "no awareness of AIM". An item score of 4 means either "severe AIM" or "severe incapacitation due to AIM" or "being aware of, and severe distress caused by AIM". Items 11 and 12 are related to dental status, taking dichotomous response: 0 = no and 1 = yes. AIMS movement score is the sum of the ratings for the first seven items with possible total scores of 0 to 28, where a higher score indicates a severe condition. |
