General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
To generate further data to explore whether 48 weeks exposure to Exenatide has an advantage over placebo based on a standard validated assessment of Parkinson's disease severity (the MDS UPDRS part 3 motor subscale). This was measured during the “practically defined OFF medication state” i.e. after patients had withheld their conventional PD medication overnight. The hypothesis was that Exenatide would be associated with reduced MDS UPDRS part 3 scores at the study end.
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
The trial was conducted in compliance with the approved protocol, UCL CCTU Standard Operating Procedures, the Declaration of Helsinki (2008), the principles of Good Clinical Practice (GCP) as laid down by the Commission Directive 2005/28/EC with implementation in national legislation in the UK by Statutory Instrument 2004/1031 and subsequent amendments, the UK Data Protection Act, the EU Tissue and Cells Directives 2004/23/EC, 2006 17/EC and 2006/86/EC, and the National Health Service (NHS) Research Governance Framework for Health and Social Care (RGF).
Protocol pre-defined reasons for a temporary halt of trial medication were in place in the event of participants experiencing abdominal pain consistent with a clinical diagnosis of pancreatitis or excessive/undesirable weight loss (>10% of body weight during a 12 week interval).
Protocol pre-defined reasons for discontinuation of trial medication were in place in the event of participants experiencing any of the following: diagnosis of acute pancreatitis; an elevation in serum Amylase (>50% above baseline); developing clinical suspicion of thyroid malignancy; accelerated disease progression (defined as greater than 50% (and absolute value of 20 points) decline in MDS UPDRS part 3 motor sub-score from baseline in both the ON medication and the practically defined OFF medication states).
Broader protocol pre-defined reasons for discontinuation of trial medication: unacceptable treatment toxicity or adverse event; inter-current illness that prevented further treatment; any change in the participant’s condition that in the clinician’s opinion justifies the discontinuation of treatment. All participants could choose to discontinue trial treatment at any time, without giving a reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which they would otherwise be entitled.
Investigation and treatment of adverse events were as per NHS standard of care.

Recruitment
|
|||||||||||||||||||
Recruitment details |
Patients with moderate Parkinson’s disease were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive subcutaneous injections of exenatide 2 mg or placebo once weekly for 48 weeks in addition to their regular medication, followed by a 12-week washout period. The trial was done at the Leonard Wolfson Experimental Neuroscience Centre (London, UK). | ||||||||||||||||||
Pre-assignment
|
|||||||||||||||||||
Screening details |
Inclusion: Patients aged 25–75 years, idiopathic Parkinson’s disease as measured by Queen Square Brain Bank criteria, on dopaminergic treatment with wearing-off effects, judged able to administer the trial drug, and at Hoehn and Yahr stage 2·5 or less when on treatment. Exclusion: concurrent dementia (MATTIS DRS<120), BMI<18.5 and diabetes. | ||||||||||||||||||

Notes [1] - The number of subjects reported to have started the pre-assignment period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same. Justification: The number of subjects reported in the pre-assignment period are the numbers who were screened for the trial but not randomised into the trial. The worldwide number enrolled is the number of patients who were eligible, consented and randomised into the trial. |

Blinding implementation details |
The trial statistician generated and uploaded unique three-digit identifiers for every active and placebo drug kit to the randomisation service to allow allocation of masked study drug kits (sufficient for 12 weeks) at randomisation and follow-up visits by assessing clinicians. The randomisation service then provided the relevant kit numbers that were to be dispensed to the patient from the hospital pharmacy.
