- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Main Objective: The efficacy objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of fosmetpantotenate over 24 weeks in patients with PKAN.<br>The safety objective of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of fosmetpantotenate in patients with PKAN.;Secondary Objective: To determine the PK following multiple doses of fosmetpantotenate in patients with PKAN.<br>To explore potential biomarkers of disease, along with their potential response to treatment in patients with PKAN.;Primary end point(s): Primary Efficacy Endpoint<br>- Change in the score from the PKAN-ADL<br><br>Safety Endpoint<br>- Safety and tolerability ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: For each patient, the change from Baseline in PKAN-ADL scores at Weeks 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 of the double-blind period will be used for analysis.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Secondary end point(s): Secondary Efficacy Endpoint<br>- Change in the score from Part III of the UPDRS;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Continuous measures recorded at each study visit from Baseline to the end of the 24-week double-blind period.
