Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Once a participant enrolls into the Master Protocol and meets all eligibility criteria, the participant will be eligible to be randomized into any currently enrolling regimen. All participants will have an equal chance of being randomized to any currently enrolling regimen.
If a participant is randomized to Regimen D Pridopidine, the participant will complete a screening visit to assess additional Regimen D eligibility criteria. Once Regimen D eligibility criteria are confirmed, participants will complete a baseline assessment and be randomized in a 3:1 ratio to either active pridopidine or matching placebo.
Regimen D will enroll by invitation, as participants may not choose to enroll in Regimen D. Participants must first enroll into the Master Protocol and be eligible to participate in the Master Protocol before being able to be randomly assigned to Regimen D.
