Measure
Perampanel
Subjects entered this open-label extension study from the double-blind core study E2007-A001-214 (NCT00165789), and included the placebo subjects. During the titration phase (lasting 12 weeks), subjects started on perampanel 2mg once daily for 2 weeks, 4 mg for 2 weeks, 6 mg for 2 weeks and finally, 8 mg until the end of the trial. Subjects remained on the same dose or had their dose reduced to their previously tolerated dose. Subjects were allowed to reduce the dose one or two steps, but only one step was allowed at a visit. Those subjects requiring more than two dose reductions were withdrawn. Subjects who did not tolerate the 2mg dose were discontinued from the study.

Population: Safety population.

Unified Parkinson's Disease (PD) Rating Scale (UPDRS) is a standardized assessment of the symptoms and signs of PD. Part II assesses Activities of Daily Living (ADL) based on 13 items, such as speech, hygiene, and falling. Participants receive a score of 0-4 points per item, with a higher score indicating more severe symptoms. Range of possible total scores, 0 to 52. ON state is when medication is providing benefits to mobility, slowness, and stiffness. OFF state is when medication has worn off and is no longer providing benefits with regard to stiffness, slowness, and tremor.

Population: Safety population.

The UPDRS is a standardized assessment of the symptoms and signs of Parkinson's Disease. Part III assesses motor activity, based on 14 items, such as gait, facial expression, and rigidity. Participants receive a score of 0-4 points per item, with a higher score indicating more severe symptoms. Range of possible total scores, 0 to 56. ON state is when medication is providing benefits with regard to stiffness, slowness, and tremor.
