Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To compare the effect of a 12-week intranasal administration of OT versus (vs) placebo on dysphagia related to OPOD in children and adolescents with PWS.;Secondary Objective: To compare the effect of a 12-week intranasal administration of OT vs placebo on: •Swallowing symptoms; •Gastrointestinal disorders; •Feeding events •Behavioural problems such as: oTemper outbursts; oSkin picking; •Patient global improvement. To document the effect of 12-week OT treatment withdrawal on dysphagia related to OPOD and other efficacy parameters. To document the maintenance of efficacy over a 24 week-intranasal administration of OT. To document the long-term efficacy up to 48-weeks of intranasal administration of OT. ;Primary end point(s): The percentage of patients showing normalisation of at least 1 of the following abnormal OPOD subscores after 12 weeks OT / placebo at V2 (groups 1 and 3 vs group 2): •Oral and pharyngeal propulsion; •Initiation and synchronisation of swallowing; •Oesophageal motility. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: visit 2 and (visit 3 for complementary analysis)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Secondary Endpoints Secondary Efficacy Endpoints: The following parameters will be assessed for differences between OT and placebo at V2 or change from baseline (groups 1 and 3 vs group 2): • Swallowing symptoms • Digestive questionnaire • Occurrence of feeding events – • Bristol stool scale • Temper outbursts questionnaire • Percentage of patients with improvement in CGI score •Percentage of patients with improvement in parent/caregiver’s global impression score (overall and by level of improvement); • Percentage of patients with improvement in CGI specific for skin picking (overall and by level of improvement). The percentage of normalised OPOD subscores at V2 which became abnormal at V3, in Group 1. All above parameters presented, as percentage of patients at V3 and as change from baseline to V3 vs change from V2 to V3 in Group 1 (withdrawal effect). The percentage of normalised OPOD subscores at V2 which remains normal at V3, in Group 3; all above parameters presented, as percentage of patients and as change from baseline to V3 vs change from V2 to V3 in Group 3. (Maintenance of efficacy) All parameters presented, as percentage of patients and as change from baseline to V4 in all groups (48 weeks for group 3, 36 weeks for group 2 and 24 weeks for group 1) (long-term efficacy). Other Endpoints: Plasma OT at V1, V2 and V3. Acylated ghrelin (AG), unacylated ghrelin (UAG), AG/UAG at V1, V2 and V3. Safety Endpoints: • Adverse events; • Laboratory safety parameters at V1, V2, V3 and V4; • Vital signs (SBP, DBP and HR) at V1, V2, V3 and V4; • ECG at V1, V2, and V3. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Visit 2, Visit 3 and Visit 4
