简要总结
The study will involve an eighteen-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel designed comparison between add-on topiramate and add-on placebo to stable treatment with amatadine in the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD) patients who continue to have dyskinesia on amantadine.
详细描述
We conducted a randomized placebo controlled trial of topiramate in PD dyskinetic subjects already on amantadine but with continuing dyskinesia. Topiramate or placebo was introduced in blinded fashion with a gradual titration (topiramate 25-150 mg/d) over 6 weeks and then a maintenance period of 8 weeks. The primary outcome of interest was change from baseline to end of study in total Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (UDysRS) score using Intention to Treat analysis.

- •Subjects must be free of dementia, depression and psychosis as determined by clinical examination.
- •The subject must be willing to participate in all study related activities and visits.
- •Exclusion criteria:
- •Any subjects with clinical evidence suggestive of an atypical or secondary form of Parkinson's Disease
- •Any subject who, in the opinion of the Principal Investigator, has a concomitant medical illness which would preclude them from being treated with amantadine,

主要结局
The Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (UDysRS)
时间窗: Change from baseline to week 14 (end of study) on the Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale
The Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (UDysRS) will be the primary outcome measure for this study. This choice is based on the outcome of the Validation of Dyskinesia Rating Scales study. In this study, the UDysRS was identified as the most sensitive scale to detect change in dyskinesia in an 8-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of amatadine. The UDysRS utilizes rater information, patient self-report and objective measures of dyskinesia to provide assessments of impairment and disability due to dyskinesia. Score ranges are 0-108 with higher scores representing more severe impairment.
