Brief summary
This study will evaluate an oral fixed-dose, once daily product that combines pramipexole and rasagiline for the treatment of early Parkinson's disease. Animal studies support the therapeutic advantage of combining low doses of rasagiline and pramipexole and suggest further improvement when both are administered in a sustained fashion. Both rasagiline and pramipexole are well known marketed drugs for Parkinson's disease with a good safety profile. combining the drugs in low doses and controlled release may provide better symptom management than the existing drugs alone or together.
Interventions
Fixed Dose Combination of pramipexole 0.6 mg and rasagiline 0.75 mg once daily
placebo
Fixed Dose Combination of pramipexole 0.3 mg and rasagiline 0.75 mg once daily

| Total UPDRS I, II, III Scores | Week 12 | Change from baseline to final visit (week 12) in total UPDRS score (defined as sum of parts I, II and III, scores (0-176). UPDRS- Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale, minimum value is 0 points and maximum value is 176. High score mean worse outcome. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| UPDRS ADL (Part II) | Week 12 | Change from baseline in individual UPDRS ADL (part II). Activity of daily Life UPDRS part II minimum is 0 point and max is 52 point (worse outcome) |
| CGI-S | 12 weeks | Change from baseline in individual Clinical Global Impression - Severity. Severity scale (CGI-S) is a 7-point scale that requires the clinician to rate the severity of the patient's illness (Parkinson's Disease) at the time of assessment relative to the clinician's past experience with patients who have the same diagnosis as one of the following:. 1 is normal and 7 is the most extremely ill patients. A subject defined as a treatment responder when the improvement from baseline to the Week12 / Last Observed Value (LOV) was of at least 1 point or more. |
| UPDRS Motor (Part III) | 12 weeks | Change from baseline in individual UPDRS motor (part III). UPDRS- Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale, part III motor . min is 0 and Max is 108 (Worse outcome) |
| PDQ39 | 12 weeks | Change from baseline in individual Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire - 39. Score 0-100 where 0 is indicative of no problem at all and 100 is the maximum level of problem. |
