Trial Outcomes & Findings for Non-motor Symptoms (Depressive Symptoms) of Parkinson's Disease and Their Course Under Pramipexole Treatment (NCT NCT00651183)

NCT ID: NCT00651183

Last Updated: 2014-05-20

Results Overview

Rating scale scored from 0 (none) - 4 (severe). The UPDRS Part I (Mentation, Behaviour and Mood during the Past Week) consist of 4 items, each of them is scored from 0 (normal) to 4 (severe). Reduction in this score over time is interpreted as improvement. Total UPDRS part I score ranges from 0 = best score to 16 = worst score

Recruitment status

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and Final (visit 3) - Change from baseline (i.e. decrease of score)

Population: Only those patients of the full analysis set (FAS) with an evaluation of UPDRS Part I at visit 3 were included in this analysis

Rating scale scored from 0 (none) - 4 (severe). The UPDRS Part I (Mentation, Behaviour and Mood during the Past Week) consist of 4 items, each of them is scored from 0 (normal) to 4 (severe).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and Final (visit 3) - Change from baseline (i.e. decrease of score)

Population: Only those patients of the full analysis set (FAS) with an evaluation of HADS-D at visit 3 were included in this analysis

Depression Scale - 7 items scored for each individual question from 0 = best and 3 = worst. HADS is a self-assessment scale for the symptom severity of anxiety disorders and depression. It comprises of 14 items, thereof seven statements describe anxiety and seven statements depression. Each answer is rated on a four-point scale (0-3). All seven answers are summarized and calculated to a total score to the anxiety scale and to the depression scale with a maximum score of 21 points for each scale.
