Brief summary

This is a multi-center, open-label, single-arm 8-week investigation of Selegiline for treatment of EDS in PD patients.

Detailed description

This is a multi-center, open-label, single-arm 8-week investigation of Selegiline. Subjects who have a diagnosis of PD based on UK brain bank criteria with ESS\> 7 will be received Selegiline as an adjunctive therapy or monotherapy. This study will assess the impact of Selegiline treatment on the severity of sleep disturbances among PD patients.

Interventions

Subjects will receive one Selegiline tablet (5 mg) per day administered at breakfast. The initial dose of Selegiline is 5 mg/day and be up-titrated in 2-week intervals in increments of 5 mg up to 10 mg (which can be taken at breakfast or divided doses of 5 mg each taken at breakfast and lunch) according to the investigator's judgment, based on individual clinical response and tolerability.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The mean change of ESS score will be assessed from baseline to 8 weeks when given Selegiline as an adjunctive therapy or monotherapy in PD patients with daytime sleepiness.8 weeksThis outcome was used to assess relationships among changes in ESS from baseline to the endpoint.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The proportion of patients with daytime sleepiness (ESS> 7) will be evaluated at the baseline and after 8 weeks treatment.8 weeksThis outcome corresponds to the number of patients with daytime sleepiness.
The mean change of PDQ-8 scores will be assessed from baseline to 8 weeks of treatment.8 weeksThis outcome reflects change of patients'daily quality.
The mean change of UPDRS IV items 32 and 39 scores will be assessed from baseline to 8 weeks of treatment.8 weeksThis outcome corresponds to motor complications.
