Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To assess the efficacy of Rasagiline using the PSP rating scale (PSPRS), aiming at a 33 % reduction of the reported deterioration (Golbe et al., 2007), i.e. a mean yearly increase of 6.5 instead of 9.7. To assess the need for additional L-DOPA therapy or the need to in-crease the dose of L-DOPA during the trial.;Secondary Objective: Reduction of gait disturbances and postural stability (as documented with posturographic measurement) Clinical safety and tolerability will be assessed by findings of physical and neurological examination, laboratory variables, adverse events in-cidence, vital signs, ECG, assessment of survival time Number of Subjects (%) who discontinue the study Number of Subjects (%) who discontinue the study due to AEs Assessment of survival time Additional endpoints: Secondary efficacy variables also will include inci-dence of dysphagia, gastrostomia, depression and pneumonia;Primary end point(s): The primary outcome measure will be the integral of the PSPRS changes from baseline over time measured during visits at 3, 6, 9, 12 months The need for additional L-DOPA therapy or the need to increase the dose of L-DOPA during the trial
