Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Time to Confirmed Motor Progression Event on Movement Disorder Society - Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Part III Score
Up to at least Week 104
DBT Period: Time to Confirmed Motor Progression Event Assessed by Movement Disorder Society - Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Part III
From study start to end of DBT period to at least 76 weeks

Time to confirmed motor progression event was the first time point of a worsening event defined as either \>= 5 points increase in MDS-UPDRS Part III score (assessed in "OFF" medication state) from baseline sustained over 2 consecutive assessments or a change in medication after first occurrence of \>= 5 points increase in MDS-UPDRS Part III score from baseline \& before follow-up assessment. MDS-UPDRS Part III is a clinician rater scale that assessed the motor signs of PD. The scale is composed of 18 clinical domains or tasks, which yield 33 distinct scores or ratings. For each distinct rating, a numeric score is assigned between 0-4, where 0 = Normal, 1 = Slight, 2 = Mild, 3 = Moderate, and 4 = Severe. The total MDS-UPDRS Part III score (ranging from 0 to 132) is calculated by summing these 33 individual ratings, with higher scores indicating severe impairment.

Change From Baseline in Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Total Score (Sum of Parts I, II, and III) at Week 52
From baseline to Week 52

The MDS-UPDRS is a multimodal scale consisting of four parts. Part I assessed non-motor experiences of daily living and has 2 components (Range 0-52). Part IA contains 6 questions and are assessed by the examiner (Range 0-24). Part IB contains 7 questions on non-motor experiences of daily living which was completed by the participant (Range 0-28). Part II assessed motor experiences of daily living (Range 0-52). It contained 13 questions completed by the participant. Part III assessed the motor signs of Parkinson's Disease (PD) and was administered by the rater (Range 0-132). Part III contained 33 scores based on 18 items. For each question a numeric score is assigned between 0-4, where 0 = Normal, 1 = Slight, 2 = Mild, 3 = Moderate, 4 = Severe. The MDS-UPDRS Total Score equals the sum of Parts I,II, and III (Range: 0-236). A higher score indicated more severe symptoms of Parkinson's disease.

Frequently asked questions about Prasinezumab

What is Prasinezumab used for?

Prasinezumab is an investigational monoclonal antibody being studied for the treatment of early-stage Parkinson's disease. It is designed to be given intravenously to participants with early Parkinson's disease, with clinical trials enrolling adults aged 50 years and older. It is not yet approved for any indication and remains in clinical development.

What does Prasinezumab target?

Prasinezumab targets SNCA, the gene encoding alpha-synuclein, and is classified as a binding agent. As a monoclonal antibody, it binds to its target protein. This mechanism is being evaluated in Parkinson's disease, a condition associated with alpha-synuclein pathology, though the drug remains investigational.

Who is developing Prasinezumab?

Prasinezumab is being developed by Prothena Corporation plc, which trades under the ticker PRTA. The company is advancing the monoclonal antibody through late-stage clinical testing in Parkinson's disease, with two active trials currently listed, including a Phase 3 study and a Phase 2 study.

What phase is Prasinezumab in?

Prasinezumab is in Phase 3 clinical development. It is an investigational monoclonal antibody and has not been approved by the FDA for any indication. The Phase 3 trial is currently recruiting, while two earlier Phase 2 studies are active but no longer recruiting participants.

What clinical trials is Prasinezumab in?

Prasinezumab is being evaluated in three registered trials. NCT07174310 is a recruiting Phase 3 study in early-stage Parkinson's disease with 900 participants across 17 countries. NCT04777331 is an active Phase 2 study with 586 participants, and NCT03100149 is an active Phase 2 study with 316 participants.

Is Prasinezumab the same as RO7046015?

Yes, Prasinezumab is also known as RO7046015. The two names refer to the same monoclonal antibody developed by Prothena Corporation plc for Parkinson's disease. Earlier trial records also list the identifier PRX002 for this same investigational compound, so searches for any of these names refer to the same drug.
