Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: TPN-101, Dose A

Drug: TPN-101, 100 mg/day
100 mg/day of study investigational drug TPN-101 once daily for 24 weeks (double-blind treatment) followed by 400 mg/day TPN-101 for 24 weeks (open-label treatment).

Experimental: TPN-101, Dose B

Drug: TPN-101, 200 mg/day
200 mg/day of study investigational drug TPN-101 once daily for 24 weeks (double-blind treatment) followed by 400 mg/day TPN-101 for 24 weeks (open-label treatment).

Experimental: TPN-101, Dose C

Drug: TPN-101, 400 mg/day
400 mg/day of study investigational drug TPN-101 once daily for 24 weeks (double-blind treatment) followed by 400 mg/day TPN-101 for 24 weeks (open-label treatment).

Placebo Comparator: Placebo

Drug: Placebo
Placebo once daily for 24 weeks (double-blind treatment) followed by 400 mg/day TPN-101 for 24 weeks (open-label treatment).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Assess the safety and tolerability of TPN-101 in patients with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) [48 weeks]

    Incidence and severity of spontaneously reported treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) associated with TPN-101 v. placebo administered for up to 48 weeks in patients with PSP

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Assess the pharmacokinetics of TPN-101 as measured by concentrations of TPN-101 in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) [48 weeks]

  2. Assess the pharmacodynamic effect of TPN-101 on neurodegeneration as measured by changes in the levels of CSF and blood neurofilament light (NfL) [48 weeks]

  3. Assess the clinical effect of TPN-101 as measured by changes in score on the Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Rating Scale (PSPRS) [48 weeks]

    The PSPRS is comprised of 28 items in six categories: daily activities (by history), behavior, bulbar, ocular motor, limb motor and gait/midline. Scores range from 0 to 100, each item is graded 0-2 (six items) or 0-4 (22 items), with lower scores indicating better clinical and functional status.

Eligibility Criteria
