    Clinical Trial Results:
    Title: A phase 3, twelve-week, multi-center, multinational, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel group study to determine the efficacy, safety and tolerability of P2B001 once daily compared to its individual components in subjects with early Parkinson’s Disease and to a calibration arm of pramipexole ER. Methodology: This was a randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind, double-dummy study design with a 12-week treatment period. Eligible subjects with Parkinson’s disease (PD) of less than 3 years’ duration participated in a titration phase of up to 6 weeks, followed by a maintenance phase. Subjects were randomised 2:2:2:1 into 1 of 4 treatment groups: P2B001 (a fixed low dose combination of pramipexole 0.6 mg [PPX] and rasagiline 0.75 mg [RAS]), PPX, RAS, or PramiER (the currently marketed version of pramipexole, extended release formulation). Treatments were taken once daily: 1 capsule (P2B001, PPX, RAS, or placebo) plus 1-3 tablets (PramiER or placebo). The study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of the combined product P2B001 in comparison with its individual components (PPX and RAS) and to compare safety and efficacy with therapeutic doses of PramiER.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To determine the superiority of P2B001 0.6/0.75 mg as compared to its individual components (PPX 0.6 mg and RAS 0.75 mg) in the change from Baseline to End of Week 12 Visit in the Total Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Score (sum of Parts II + III). This scale is the standard measurement of Parkinson’s symptoms and is well recognised as reliable, accurate, and valid.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The study and any amendments were reviewed and approved by an Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) or Institutional Review Board (IRB). The study was monitored by an IDMC. The study was conducted according to the protocol, the laws, regulations and administrative provisions relating to the implementation of GCP in the conduct of clinical trials on medicinal products for human use, as applicable by national legislation and directives, including Directive 2001/20/EC of the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union and US 21 CFR Part 11, 50, 54, 56 and 312. The principles of informed consent, according to Declaration of Helsinki 1964 and all its updates, the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) step 5 guidelines on Good Clinical Practice (GCP), 21 CFR part 50 of the FDA Regulations and/or EU Directives, were followed. The subjects were properly informed, given time to contemplate participation, and freely gave their consent by signing and dating the EC/IRB-approved informed consent form. The consent form and any other documents relevant to the consent process were submitted to the IEC/IRB together with the protocol and approved prior to study start. No rescue therapy was allowed during the treatment phase and for 2 weeks afterwards (until the safety follow-up visit), except in an emergency situation. If needed by the subject for adequate treatment of subject’s Parkinson's symptoms and according to the Investigator’s judgment, the study medication was discontinued and a rescue medication was administered. A Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) periodically reviewed, in an unblinded fashion, safety data accumulated in the study. The data that the DSMB received included adverse events (AEs), vital signs, and ECGs of subjects experiencing AEs.
    Background therapy
    All concomitant medication that the subject took from the Screening visit, plus any changes in concomitant medication or new medications, were recorded. Subjects were not permitted to receive concomitant therapy with any of the medications listed below for longer than 4 weeks or within the previous 1-3 months prior to baseline visit: •Other investigational therapy (washout period 30 days prior to study entry, Baseline Visit). •Previous monoamine oxidase (MAO)-B inhibitors •Previous levodopa or dopamine agonists •Previous anticholinergic drugs for PD •Subjects were permitted to take peripheral anticholinergic drugs if they were stable on low dose for at least 4 weeks prior to study entry. Once enrolled into the study, use of new peripheral anticholinergic drugs was prohibited •Non-selective MAO inhibitors •Dopamine antagonists •Ciprofloxacin or other CYP1A2 inhibitors that may affect RAS plasma concentrations •Antitussive agent dextromethorphan: co-administration with RAS may lead to psychosis •Analgesic agents such as tramadol, methadone, meperidine and propoxyphene due to risk of serotonin syndrome •St. John's Wort or cyclobenzaprine •Marijuana or previous exposure to marijuana during the last 30 days Care was taken to avoid or minimize use of sympathomimetic medications, including nasal, oral and ophthalmic decongestants and cold remedies due to possible hypertensive reactions. Care was taken when study drugs were given with sedating medications (e.g., diphenhydramine, doxylamine succinate and other first-generation antihistamines) due to possible additive sedative effects with pramipexole. Fifty-three subjects took antidepressant drugs concomitantly with the study medication. The subjects were closely followed up by site PI for signs of serotonin syndrome.
    Evidence for comparator
    Pramipexole and rasagiline are both approved drugs and routinely used in standard therapy for the treatment of individuals with PD. They have different mechanisms and there is reason to believe that their combined activity will be better than each individual drug as monotherapy, and that lower doses of each could be used without losing the therapeutic effect, while avoiding the side effects associated with higher doses of both drugs when taken as monotherapy.

Subject with disease duration less than 3 years since diagnosis. 8. Women of child-bearing potential (WOCBP)* must use a reliable method of contraception (e.g., oral contraceptive or long-term injectable or implantable hormonal contraceptive, double-barrier methods [such as condom plus diaphragm, condom plus spermicide foam, condom plus sponge], or intra-uterine devices) for the entire study duration, and must have a negative serum pregnancy test at Screening and negative urine pregnancy at baseline visit. *WOCBP are defined as any female who has experienced menarche and who is NOT permanently sterile or postmenopaused. Postmenopausal is defined as 12 consecutive months with no menses without an alternative medical cause. • Exclusion criteria 23 deleted • Change to Overall study design and plan description Text added: Down-titration phase: a 7 day gradual down titration of pramipexole ER or matching placebo. The down titration should be done by reducing the dose every two days by half (except for subjects taking 4.5 mg, these should reduce the dose to 3.0 mg and then continue to reduce by half every two days). There is no treatment with once daily P2B001/RAS 0.75/PPX0.6/Placebo capsules during this period. • Change to Section 5.2 Revised text: Subject loses their kit of study medication and a replacement kit is requested, in this situation the PI should request an emergency shipment to alert the distributor to ship the replacement kit urgently).
    16 Jul 2018
    Continued from above: • Change to Section 7.5 Text added: o Early Study Termination(EST) o A subject who requests to stop study participation for any reason before the end of week 12, including study treatment and study scheduled activities, will be requested to undergo a study termination visit as described in section 9.2.11 o The reasons for withdrawal could include the following: o Subject withdrawal of consent and refusal to continue participation in study o Pregnancy o Adverse Event/Experience o Loss to follow-up/failure to return o Death • Change to Section 8.3.5 Revised text in section 8.3.5: Concomitant medication logs will be completed at the Screening visit and will be updated at each subsequent visit. The logs will include the medication taken by the subject over the past 3 months. A separate log will record anti-PD medications that were previously used. • Change to Section 10 Revised text in section 10: All concomitant medication that the subject is taking from the screening visit should be recorded on the concomitant medications log. In addition, any changes in concomitant medication or new medications added, including as a result of an inter-current illness must be recorded in the case report forms. A separate log will record anti-PD medications taken prior to enrollment.
    16 Jul 2018
    Continued from above: • Change to Section 8.3.9 Revised text in section 8.3.9: Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (CSSRS, see Appendix VIII) will be used. Baseline / screening version of the CSSRS will be used at screening visit. This version assesses suicidality in a patient’s lifetime and during the past six months. The Since Last Visit (SLV) version of the CSSRS will be used at all consequent visits. This version assesses suicidality since the patient’s last visit. Efforts must be made to ensure that the same trained team member completes this questionnaire for each subject. A subject with any suicidal ideation that answered YES to questions 4 or 5 in the CSSRS questionnaire will be referred to a mental health professional. CSSRS-SLV will be used on the baseline visit and at end of weeks 3, 5, 8, 12/Treatment Termination visit and end of week 14 (visits 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7). • Change to Section 9.2.3 Revised text in section 9.2.3: CSSRS-SLV • Change to Section 8.4.1 UPDRS Revised text: The UPDRS part II will be completed by a trained neurologist or other trained research staff member as delegated by the Site PI. For consistency efforts must be made to ensure that the same trained research staff member will do the UPDRS part II at all required visits for all subjects.
    16 Jul 2018
    Continued from above: • Change to Section 9.2.2 Revised text in section 9.2.2: After completion of all the testing for the assessment of eligibility, it will be decided by the Investigator whether the subject is eligible for the study. For a subject to be eligible all the inclusion criteria must be met and none of the exclusion criteria must apply. Therefore, all the results from the screening procedures must be available before determining a subject’s eligibility. Subjects found eligible will be further reviewed by a central eligibility monitoring committee (see 16.4.2). The maximal interval between the screening and baseline visits is 28 days that can be extended up to 35 days, however, additional Sponsor approval will be required. . Subjects that were screen failures may rescreen for the study. If the rescreening visit is within 28 days (or 35 days with sponsor approval) of the original blood testing, the screening number remains the same and the blood draw does not need to be repeated, unless it is the reason for the screening failure. Subjects complying with inclusion/exclusion criteria will be randomly assigned to one of the four treatment groups by a central website based computer program using Randomization Trial Supply Management (RTSM). A randomization form must be completed via the RTSM as soon as possible after subject eligibility was confirmed in order to trigger shipment of investigational product for this subject.
    16 Jul 2018
    Continued from above: • Change to Section 9.2.3 Revised text in section 9.2.3: The time between visit 1 (screening), and visit 2 (baseline), will be no less than 24 hours and no more than 28 days (or 35 days with sponsor approval). In this visit a medication kit will be dispensed to him/her together with a leaflet of instructions for use. The subject will be given an emergency contact card with 24 hour contact numbers. The subject will be instructed to keep the contact card with him/her at all times. The following activities will be performed: - Dispensation of study medication kit • Change to Section 12.2 Revised text in section 12.2: All subjects will be assigned a unique subject number at the screening visit (visit 1). The subjects found to be eligible for the study by both PI and the EMC will be randomized as soon as possible in order to trigger shipment of investigational medication to the subject. • Change to Section 22.1 appendix I; schedule of activities Revised text below table: ** The maximal interval between the screening and baseline visits can be extended to 35 days; however, additional Sponsor approval will be required. • Change to Section 12.6 Revised text in section 12.6: Subjects will be instructed to bring the last medication box used (open and unopened bottles) with them to visits 4, 5, 6 and 7 for compliance and accountability checks. During each study visits, (visits 4-7), the Investigator and/or site coordinator will assess the subject’s compliance with the prescribed regimen for the study medication.
    16 Jul 2018
    Continued from above: • Change to Section 12.7 Revised text in section 12.7: For study drug accountability, the subject will be requested to bring for visit 4-7, all empty, partially used or unused bottles from the box used during the previous month. • Change to Section 21 Investigator Agreements Deleted text: Place to add sponsor representative name and signature was deleted. • Change to Section 22.9 Appendix IX: UPDRS Deleted text: “half point scores are allowed for Part III questions)”

    18 Nov 2020
    Continued from above: • Change to Appendix I Added text below table of activities Appendix I: 35 – 90 days may be approved but a new collection of screening laboratory samples will be required to verify eligibility prior to baseline. • Change to Section 9.2.11 Revised text in section 9.2.11 Early Treatment/Study Termination Visit: Subjects who terminate treatment/study early (following first dose and prior to visit 6) according to criteria in section 7.5 will be requested to undergo a treatment/study termination visit. • Change to definition of ITT analyses set in Section 15.4 Revised text: Intention-to-Treat Analysis Set (ITT): The ITT Analysis Set will include all eligible and randomized subjects who are not early terminated from the study during screening or baseline visits according to the treatment group to which they are originally randomized to. • Change to definition of mITT analyses set in Section 15.4 Revised text: Modified Intention-to-Treat Analysis Set (mITT): The mITT Analyses Set is a subset of the ITT Analysis Set including subjects who have at least one post-baseline UPDRS assessment and have taken at least one study drug dose according to the treatment group to which they are originally randomized to. • Change to Synopsis and Section 15.3 Added text: If ever there is a discrepancy in the between the Protocol and the Statistical Analysis Plan, the methods defined in the SAP will have precedence.
    23 Aug 2021
    Changes in the planned analysis prior to unblinding: The mITT analysis set in the original statistical analysis plan (SAP) (pre-SAP addendum) included only subjects who were randomised, took at least one dose of study drug, and had at least one post-baseline UPDRS (parts II + III) score at the planned scheduled visits. This definition excluded 13 subjects who terminated treatment or the study before the first post baseline scheduled visit at the end of Week 5, but completed a post-baseline UPDRS (parts II+III) measurement at an unscheduled visit. A change in the definition of mITT analysis set was submitted to the FDA prior to the unblinding of the study in an addendum to the SAP in which these subjects were included. The mITT analysis set according to the SAP addendum included subjects that were randomised, took at least one dose of study drug and had at least one post-baseline (UPDRS Parts II + III) score at the planned scheduled visits or at an unscheduled early termination visit. A sensitivity analysis to the principal analysis of the primary endpoint with the pre-SAP addendum analysis set was done to test the impact of this change.
