Trial Outcomes & Findings for Apokyn for Motor IMProvement of Morning AKinesia Trial (AM IMPAKT) (NCT NCT01770145)

NCT ID: NCT01770145

Last Updated: 2023-08-14

Results Overview

Patients will record daily "time to on" or "TTO" following their regularly scheduled first L-Dopa dose in the baseline period for 7 consecutive days. Following initiation on Apokyn therapy, patients will inject Apokyn at their regularly scheduled L-Dopa time (L-Dopa dosing will be delayed by 40 minutes following Apokyn injection) and record "time to on" or "TTO" from the injection. "Time to on" for both periods will be recorded in a standardized subject diary. Daily "TTO" for the baseline period will be averaged for each subject and compared to the daily "TTO" for the same subject during the treatment period to assess APOKYN's effect on "TTO".

Measure
APOKYN
Subjects will complete an L-Dopa Baseline Period in which they record daily "time to on" following their regularly scheduled L-Dopa morning dose for 7 days. At the end of the baseline period, patients will start trimethobenzamide therapy during a minimum 3-Day Anti-Emetic Pretreatment Period. Patients determined to remain eligible at the end of the required Anti-Emetic Pretreatment Period will be initiated on APOKYN therapy by an investigator. Once the appropriate dose is identified by a study investigator, patients will inject APOKYN at their regularly scheduled levodopa morning dose time (levodopa will be delayed by 40 minutes) daily during a 7-day APOKYN Treatment Period and record "time to on" following the APOKYN injection.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: L-Dopa Baseline Days 1-7 and APOKYN Treatment Days 1-8

Population: A sub-group of subjects from 1 study site that have symptoms of gastroparesis were admitted to the clinic to undergo gastroparesis procedures and assessments (once at the conclusion of the baseline L-dopa period and once at the conclusion of the APOKYN treatment period)

A sub-group of subjects from 1 study site that have symptoms of gastroparesis were admitted to the clinic on 2 occasions to undergo gastroparesis procedures and assessments (once at the conclusion of the baseline L-dopa period and once at the conclusion of the APOKYN treatment period). Note, to do the second gastroparesis assessment, this sub-group of subjects had an extension for one extra day beyond the designated 7 day APOKYN treatment period (i.e., it will be 8 days) in order to keep the 7 day diary recording outpatient scope of work the same as the rest of the subjects in the study. The second inpatient period was also considered the end-of-study visit for this sub group.
