placeboplacebo comparatorThe placebo dosage was a fixed dosage for the entire double-blind study. Subjects receiving the placebo were to take one dose orally once every day in the evening.
2 mg perampanel2 mg perampanelThe Perampanel 2mg dosage was fixed for the entire double-blind study. Subjects taking perampanel 2mg were to take the dose orally once every day in the evening.
4 mg perampanel4 mg perampanelThe Perampanel 4mg group first were subjected to a 4 week titration period, followed by a maintenance period for the remaining weeks. Subjects taking perampanel 4mg had a titration period of 4 weeks, starting at 2mg per day adding 1mg of perampel every two weeks up to 4mg. The dosages were to be taken orally once every day in the evening.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mean Change From Baseline in Total Daily OFF Time (Hours) to Week 20 (Including Last Observation Carried Forward [LOCF] Data)Baseline and Week 20

Patients described themselves in home diaries as "OFF", "ON" without dyskinesias, "ON" with non troublesome dyskinesias, "ON" with troublesome dyskinesias, or Asleep, every 30 minutes during waking hours for 3 consecutive days prior to Baseline, Weeks 8, 10, 18, and 20. OFF state is when medication has worn off and is no longer providing benefits with regard to stiffness, slowness, and tremor.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mean Change From Baseline in Scale UPDRS Part II (ADL) Score in Total Daily OFF Time to Week 20 (Including LOCF Data)Baseline and Week 20

Patients described themselves in home diaries every 30 minutes during waking hours for 3 consecutive days prior to Baseline, Weeks 8, 12, 16, and 20. Unified Parkinson's Disease (PD) Rating Scale (UPDRS) is a standardized assessment of the symptoms and signs of PD. Part II assesses Activities of Daily Living (ADL) based on 13 items, such as speech, hygiene, and falling. Participants receive a score of 0-4 points per item, with a higher score indicating more severe symptoms. Range of possible total scores, 0 to 52. ON state is when medication is providing benefits to mobility, slowness, and stiffness. OFF state is when medication has worn off and is no longer providing benefits with regard to stiffness, slowness, and tremor.

Mean Change From Baseline in UPDRS Part III (Motor) Score in ON State (Hours) to Week 20 (Including LOCF Data)Baseline and Week 20

Patients described themselves in home diaries every 30 minutes during waking hours for 3 days prior to Baseline, Weeks 8, 12, 16, and 20. UPDRS is a standardized assessment of the symptoms and signs of PD. Part III assesses motor activity, based on 14 items, such as gait, facial expression, and rigidity. Participants receive a score of 0-4 points per item, with a higher score indicating more severe symptoms. ON state is when medication is providing benefits to stiffness, slowness, and tremor.

Mean Change From Baseline in Total Daily ON Time (Without Dyskinesias or With Non-troublesome Dyskinesias) (Hours) to Week 20 (Including LOCF Data)Baseline and Week 20

Patients described themselves in home diaries every 30 minutes during waking hours for 3 days prior to Baseline, Weeks 8, 12, 16, and 20. ON state is when medication is providing benefits to stiffness, slowness, and tremor.
