Trial Outcomes & Findings for GM1 Ganglioside Effects on Parkinson's Disease (NCT NCT00037830)

NCT ID: NCT00037830

Last Updated: 2012-12-21

Results Overview

The Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) (Part III) motor scores assess 14 symptoms some of which separately assess symptoms in different body parts (e.g. right arm, left arm, right leg, left leg) and each symptom is rated on a scale from 0 (normal) to 4 (severe). The minimum total score possible is 0 and the maximum total score possible is 108. Each subject was independently rated by two observers at each study visit and a mean score was calculated for analysis.

Participant Flow

Seventy-seven PD patients were recruited from all across the US for this single center, double-blind, delayed start trial of GM1. Seventeen subjects participated in the comparison group. Enrollment for the study began Nov 1999 and was completed in Jan 2006. Subjects were seen at the Parkinson's Disease Research Unit at Thomas Jefferson University.

Population: Analysis was per protocol. Two subjects randomized to the Early-Start group withdrew from the study shortly after starting. The comparison group was not compared statistically to the treatment group since they were not randomized.

The total Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) score is derived from Part I (Mentation, Behavior and Mood), Part II (Activities of Daily Living) and Part III (Motor Examination). Part I assesses 4 functions; Part II assesses 13 activities of daily living; Part III assesses 14 motor symptoms. Each item is rated on a scale from 0 (normal) to 4 (severe). The minimum total score possible is 0 and the maximum total score possible is 176. Each subject was independently rated by two observers at each study visit and a mean score was calculated for analysis.

POST_HOC outcome

Timeframe: Week 6 to Week 24

Population: Analysis was per protocol. Two subjects randomized to the Early-Start group withdrew from the study shortly after starting. The comparison group was not compared statistically to the treatment group since they were not randomized.

Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) A four part scale used to assess the severity of Parkinson's disease symptoms. Part I contains questions concerning the patient's mentation, behavior and mood. Part II asks questions about the patient's ability to perform activities of daily living. Part III is the motor examination of the patient's symptoms ranging in scores from 0 to 4 with 0 equaling either normal or absence of symptoms. The minimum score on this section is 0 and the maximum is 108. Part IV asks the patient questions about any complications of therapy they have experienced within the past week. However, for this study the total UPDRS included Parts I, II, and III. A higher the score on the scale indicates more severe symptoms.
