Trial Outcomes & Findings for Sustained Effect of Droxidopa in Symptomatic Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension (NCT NCT02586623)

NCT ID: NCT02586623

Last Updated: 2023-08-23

Results Overview

Kaplan-Meier estimates are presented for time to treatment intervention. The estimates represent the quartiles of the survival time, where 50% corresponds to the median time to need for treatment intervention. Need for intervention is defined as meeting ANY of the following criteria during the Double-Blind Treatment Period: * OHSA Item #1 ≥2 unit worsening from Randomization (Visit 6) AND lack of efficacy as judged by the investigator; OR * OHSA Item #1 ≥2 unit worsening from Randomization (Visit 6) at 2 consecutive visits; OR * OHSA Item #1 ≥2 unit worsening from Randomization (Visit 6) at the visit before early discontinuation; OR * participant stops IMP or withdraws from study for patient-reported lack of efficacy.

Measure
Open-Label Droxidopa
Active droxidopa 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, or 600 mg three times daily (TID) orally. During the Open-Label period, participants received 100 mg TID and their dose was raised (in 100 mg TID increments) at subsequent visits until optimal dose was determined. Participants then received active droxidopa 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, or 600 mg TID orally (equal to the participant's individual optimal dose).
Double-Blind Droxidopa
Active droxidopa 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, or 600 mg TID orally (equal to participant's individual dose at the end of the Open-Label Period)

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Randomization (Day 0) up to Week 12

Population: The Full-analysis Set (FAS) included all randomized participants who took at least one dose of IMP in the Double-Blind Treatment Period.

Kaplan-Meier estimates are presented for time to treatment intervention. The estimates represent the quartiles of the survival time, where 50% corresponds to the median time to need for treatment intervention. Need for intervention is defined as meeting ANY of the following criteria during the Double-Blind Treatment Period: * OHSA Item #1 ≥2 unit worsening from Randomization (Visit 6) AND lack of efficacy as judged by the investigator; OR * OHSA Item #1 ≥2 unit worsening from Randomization (Visit 6) at 2 consecutive visits; OR * OHSA Item #1 ≥2 unit worsening from Randomization (Visit 6) at the visit before early discontinuation; OR * participant stops IMP or withdraws from study for patient-reported lack of efficacy.

Timeframe: Randomization (Day 0); Weeks 2 to 12

Population: The FAS included all randomized participants who took at least one dose of IMP in the Double-Blind Treatment Period. Here, 'Overall number of subjects analyzed' signifies participants evaluable for this outcome measure and "Number analyzed" is the number of participants evaluated at each time point.

The OHSA scale was designed to rate symptoms occurring specifically as a result of low blood pressure (BP), on average, over the past week using an 11-point scale (0 to 10), with more severe symptoms scoring higher. A score of zero indicates that the symptom was not experienced, and 10 is the worst possible. The scale was used to assess six symptoms: 1) Dizziness, lightheadedness, feeling faint, or feeling like you might black out, 2) problems with vision, 3) weakness, 4) fatigue, 5) trouble concentrating, and 6) head/neck discomfort. Scores for each activity and a composite score for all six activities were tabulated. A mean negative change from baseline means that symptoms have improved. A mean positive change from baseline means that symptoms have gotten worse.

Population: The FAS included all randomized participants who took at least one dose of IMP in the Double-Blind Treatment Period. Here, 'Overall number of subjects analyzed' signifies participants evaluable for this outcome measure and "Number analyzed" is the number of participants evaluated at each time point.

The OHQ composite score was a mean of the OHSA composite and the Orthostatic Hypotension Daily Activity Scale (OHDAS) composite scores. The OHDAS was designed as a measure of quality of life. It uses an 11-point scale to assess whether orthostatic hypotension (OH) "interfered" with four types of activities: 1) standing for a short time, 2) standing for a long time, 3) walking for a short time, and 4) walking for a long time. A zero rating means that over the preceding week the activity was performed with no interference and a 10 rating means that orthostatic hypotension completely interfered with the activity. Scores for each activity and a composite score for all four activities were tabulated. A mean negative change from baseline means that symptoms have improved. A mean positive change from baseline means that symptoms have gotten worse.

Timeframe: Weeks 2 to 12

Population: The FAS included all randomized participants who took at least one dose of IMP in the Double-Blind Treatment Period. Here, 'Overall number of subjects analyzed' signifies participants evaluable for this outcome measure and "Number analyzed" is the number of participants evaluated at each time point.

The CGI-S was developed to provide global measures of the severity of a participant's clinical condition during clinical studies. The CGI-S was utilized by both the clinician and the participant to provide an impression of the participant's current state of OH. The severity of the participant's current illness was rated by the clinician on a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (normal, no OH) to 7 (among those patients most extremely ill with OH).

The CGI-S was developed to provide global measures of the severity of a participant's clinical condition during clinical studies. The CGI-S was utilized by both the clinician and the participant to provide an impression of the participant's current state of OH. The severity of the participant's current illness was rated by the participant on a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (normal, no OH) to 7 (most extremely ill with OH).

Measure
Open-Label Droxidopa
n=451 participants at risk
Active droxidopa 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, or 600 mg three times daily (TID) orally. During the Open-Label period, participants received 100 mg TID and their dose was raised (in 100 mg TID increments) at subsequent visits until optimal dose was determined. Participants then received active droxidopa 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, or 600 mg TID orally (equal to the participant's individual optimal dose).
Double-Blind Droxidopa
n=126 participants at risk
Active droxidopa 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, or 600 mg TID orally (equal to participant's individual dose at the end of the Open-Label Period)
Double-Blind Placebo
n=126 participants at risk

Measure
Open-Label Droxidopa
n=451 participants at risk
Active droxidopa 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, or 600 mg three times daily (TID) orally. During the Open-Label period, participants received 100 mg TID and their dose was raised (in 100 mg TID increments) at subsequent visits until optimal dose was determined. Participants then received active droxidopa 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, or 600 mg TID orally (equal to the participant's individual optimal dose).
Double-Blind Droxidopa
n=126 participants at risk
Active droxidopa 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, or 600 mg TID orally (equal to participant's individual dose at the end of the Open-Label Period)
Double-Blind Placebo
n=126 participants at risk
Matching placebo for droxidopa TID orally
