Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Safety and Tolerability of Dalfampridine-ER in Subjects With Chronic Deficits After Ischemic Stroke Assessed by Number of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    A TEAE is defined as any adverse event with date of onset (or worsening) on or after the start-date of double-blind treatment through 7 days after the last dose of double-blind treatment. The severity categories of mild, moderate or severe, are defined below: * Mild is defined as causing no limitation of usual activities * Moderate is defined as causing some limitation of usual activities * Severe is defined as causing inability to carry out usual activities

    up to 36 days

Other Outcomes (7)

  • Walking Speed Measured by the Timed 25 Foot Walk Test (T25FW)

    Screening visit, Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29 and 36

  • Motor and Sensory Function as Measured by the Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA)

    Screening visit, Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, and 36

  • Manual Dexterity as Measured by the Box and Block Test

    Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, and 36

  • +4 more other outcomes

Study Arms (2)

placebo/dalfampridine-ER

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Subjects will be randomized at day 1 to one of two blinded treatment sequences (A or B) in a 2:1 ratio respectively, according to a randomization created prior to the start of the study: Period 1 = days 1, 8 and 15. Period 2 = Days 22, 29, and 36

Drug: placebo/dalfampridine-ER

dalfampridine-ER/placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Subjects will be randomized at day 1 to one of two blinded treatment sequences (A or B) in a 2:1 ratio respectively, according to a randomization created prior to the start of the study: Period 1 = days 1, 8 and 15. Period 2 = Days 22, 29, and 36

Drug: dalfampridine-ER/placebo

Interventions

Sequence A: placebo in Period 1 and dalfampridine-ER in Period 2. 10mg tablets, will be taken orally, twice daily approximately 12 hours apart

placebo/dalfampridine-ER

Sequence B: dalfampridine-ER in Period 1 and placebo in Period 2. 10mg tablets, will be taken orally, twice daily approximately 12 hours apart

dalfampridine-ER/placebo
