NCT06757010

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if bezisterim can treat movement symptoms of Parkinson's disease in patients that are 45 to 80 years old, in generally good physical and mental health, and are nearing the need for treatment to relieve their symptoms but have not yet been prescribed any form of levodopa or drug with similar activity. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Will bezisterim decrease movement symptoms of Parkinson's disease?
  • What medical problems do participants have when taking bezisterim? Researchers will compare the effects of bezisterim treatment to placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if bezisterim works to treat movement symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Participants will
  • have a physical examination that includes an electrocardiogram
  • take drug or placebo twice daily for four months
  • visit a clinical site or receive an at home visit seven times over the course of five months

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from baseline in the MDS-UPDRS Part III

    The Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) is comprised of 4 parts: This study will use MDS-UPDRS Parts I, II, and III. The primary efficacy endpoint is change in the modified MDS-UPDRS Part III score. Scores (0-4: Normal to severe impact) are derived from clinician and subject input to allow the assessment of symptomatic worsening, stability, or improvement.

    12 Weeks

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Change from baseline in MDS-UPDRS Part I and II

    12 weeks

  • Percent of subjects with improvement in Clinical Global Impression
