    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Change From Baseline to Week 18 in the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Total Score for Parts I, II and III [Day 0 (baseline), Week 18]

      The UPDRS was developed as a comprehensive tool to monitor the impact of Parkinson's Disease and the degree of disability caused. Version 3 of UPDRS contains four parts, three of which are totaled and reported in this outcome. Part I is a clinician's evaluation of mentation (mental activity or state of mind), cognition (ability to acquire knowledge), behaviour and mood. Part II is the participants' evaluation of the disease's impact on normal activities. Part III is a clinician's evaluation of motor function. Parts I, II, and III contain a total of 31 questions, which are each rated on a scale of 0 (normal or no disease effect) to 4 (maximum negative effect), for a total scale of 0-124. Negative change from baseline values indicate improvement. All site raters (medical doctor [MD], doctor of osteopathy [DO], nurse practitioner, or physician assistant) received training on how to complete the UPDRS. The same site rater completed the UPDRS at all visits.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Change From Baseline to Week 18 in the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Total Score for Part II - Activities of Daily Living [Day 0 (baseline), Week 18]

      The UPDRS was developed as a comprehensive tool to monitor the impact of Parkinson's Disease and the degree of disability caused. UPDRS contains four parts, the second of which is reported in this outcome. Part II is the participants' evaluation of the disease's impact on normal activities. Part II contains a total of 13 questions, which are each rated on a scale of 0 (normal or no disease effect) to 4 (maximum negative effect), for a total scale of 0-52. Negative change from baseline values indicate improvement.

    2. Change From Baseline to Week 18 in the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Total Score for Part III - Motor Function [Day 0 (baseline), Week 18]

      The UPDRS was developed as a comprehensive tool to monitor the impact of Parkinson's Disease and the degree of disability caused. Version 3 of UPDRS contains four parts, the third of which is reported in this outcome. Part III is a clinician's evaluation of motor function. Part III contains 14 questions, which are each rated on a scale of 0 (normal or no disease effect) to 4 (maximum negative effect), for a total scale of 0-56. Negative change from baseline values indicate improvement. All site raters (medical doctor [MD], doctor of osteopathy [DO], nurse practitioner, or physician assistant) received training on how to complete the UPDRS. The same site rater completed the UPDRS at all visits

    3. Clinical Global Improvement (CGI) Score at Week 18 As Assessed by the Site Rater [18 weeks]

      CGI is used by the site rater to rate participants total improvement during the study whether or not, in the investigators' judgment, it is due entirely to drug treatment. Specifically, site raters are asked to compare the participants condition at the beginning of the study to his/her condition at Week 18, how much has he/she changed? Answers are 0 (not assessed), 1 (very much improved), 2 (much improved), 3 (minimally improved), 4 (no change), 5 (minimally worse), 6 (much worse), 7(very much worse). Site raters can be the medical doctor [MD], doctor of osteopathy [DO], nurse practitioner, or physician assistant.

    4. Clinical Global Improvement (CGI) Score at Week 18 As Assessed by the Participant [18 weeks]

      CGI is used by the participant to rate his/her total improvement during the study. Specifically, participants are asked to compare their condition at the beginning of the study to his/her condition at Week 18, how much has he/she changed? Answers are 0 (not assessed), 1 (very much improved), 2 (much improved), 3 (minimally improved), 4 (no change), 5 (minimally worse), 6 (much worse), 7(very much worse).

    5. Illness Severity Score at Day 0 and Week 18 As Assessed by the Site Rater [Day 0 (baseline), Week 18]

      Site raters were asked: Considering your total clinical experience with the particular population, how ill is the patient at this time? Answers were based on a 0-7 scale, with 0=not assessed, 1= normal, not at all ill, and 7= among the most extremely ill of patients. Site raters can be the medical doctor [MD], doctor of osteopathy [DO], nurse practitioner, or physician assistant.

    Outcome Measures

    1. Primary Outcome
    Title Change From Baseline to Week 18 in the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Total Score for Parts I, II and III
    Description The UPDRS was developed as a comprehensive tool to monitor the impact of Parkinson's Disease and the degree of disability caused. Version 3 of UPDRS contains four parts, three of which are totaled and reported in this outcome. Part I is a clinician's evaluation of mentation (mental activity or state of mind), cognition (ability to acquire knowledge), behaviour and mood. Part II is the participants' evaluation of the disease's impact on normal activities. Part III is a clinician's evaluation of motor function. Parts I, II, and III contain a total of 31 questions, which are each rated on a scale of 0 (normal or no disease effect) to 4 (maximum negative effect), for a total scale of 0-124. Negative change from baseline values indicate improvement. All site raters (medical doctor [MD], doctor of osteopathy [DO], nurse practitioner, or physician assistant) received training on how to complete the UPDRS. The same site rater completed the UPDRS at all visits.

    Analysis Population Description
    Modified intent to treat population - all randomized participants who took at least 1 dose of study drug and had both a baseline and at least 1 post-baseline efficacy assessment. Several participants had missing UPDRS items at baseline and during treatment; therefore the total UPDRS for these participants was set as missing.

    6. Secondary Outcome
    Title Illness Severity Score at Day 0 and Week 18 As Assessed by the Site Rater
    Description Site raters were asked: Considering your total clinical experience with the particular population, how ill is the patient at this time? Answers were based on a 0-7 scale, with 0=not assessed, 1= normal, not at all ill, and 7= among the most extremely ill of patients. Site raters can be the medical doctor [MD], doctor of osteopathy [DO], nurse practitioner, or physician assistant.
