| safety efficacy Change in the Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Part II + Part III total score Timeframe: Up to Weeks 28 MDS-UPDRS retains the four-scale structure with a reorganization of the various subscales. The scales are now titled; (Part I) nonmotor experiences of daily living (13 items), (Part II) motor experiences of daily living (13 items), (Part III) motor examination (18 items), and (Part IV) motor complications (six items). Each subscale now has 0-4 ratings, where 0 = normal, 1 = slight, 2 = mild, 3 = moderate, and 4 = severe. | — |
