Treatment and study plan

Kinesia-ONE™

Device

Kinesia-ONE™ wearable sensor uses a subject-worn finger sensor and iPad mini application (APP) to objectively measure specific motor tasks related to Parkinson's disease symptoms such as tremor, bradykinesia (slowed movements), and dyskinesia (involuntary movements) in the Investigator's office. Subjects should wear the Kinesia-ONE™ device on the most affected side.

Kinesia-360™

Device

Kinesia-360™ wearable sensor includes a wrist and ankle device, along with a cell phone, which is also APP-based, and is designed for continuous day time monitoring of Parkinson's disease symptoms. Subjects will wear Kinesia-360™ while they go about their daily lives, and symptom severity is continually captured to enable objective assessment of Parkinson's disease symptoms. Subjects should wear the Kinesia-360™ device bands on the most affected side.

Rotigotine

Drug

All subjects will start Neupro treatment at a dose of either rotigotine 2 mg/24 h or 4 mg/24 h (according to the disease stage of the subject) which will then be adjusted based on symptom assessment either via standard care alone or via a combination of standard care and evaluation of the recordings made available by the Kinesia wearable technologies.

Primary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline to Visit 2 in Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Part III Motor Score

    Time frame: Baseline (Visit 1/Week 1) to Visit 2 (Week 12/ 3 months after start of treatment with Neupro)

    UPDRS Part III has 27 items assessing motor skills including facial expression and speech, tremors, rigidity, posture, gait, and bradykinesia. Each of the 27 items in the UPDRS part III is measured on a scale of 0 to 4, where 0 is normal and 4 represents severe abnormalities. The motor score ranges from 0 to 108, where the maximum score indicates the worse condition. A negative value in change in Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale indicates improvement, whereas a positive value indicates worsening of disease.

  2. Change From Baseline to Visit 2 in Kinesia-ONE™ Variable: Finger Tapping Speed Score

    Time frame: Baseline (Visit 1/Week 1) to Visit 2 (Week 12)

    Kinesia-ONE™ measures were averaged from triplicate repeated assessments at a measurement point. Kinesia-ONE scores ranged from 0 to 4 (where 0 is normal and 4 represents severe abnormalities), with negative change from Baseline scores indicating improvement in disease symptoms.

  3. Change From Baseline to Visit 2 in Kinesia-ONE™ Variable: Rest Tremor Score

    Time frame: Baseline (Visit 1/Week 1) to Visit 2 (Week 12)

    Kinesia-ONE™ measures were averaged from triplicate repeated assessments at a measurement point. Kinesia-ONE scores ranged from 0 to 4 (where 0 is normal and 4 represents severe abnormalities), with negative change from Baseline scores indicating improvement in disease symptoms.

  4. Change From Baseline to Visit 2 in Kinesia-ONE™ Variable: Averaged Finger Tapping Speed and Resting Tremor Scores

    Time frame: Baseline (Visit 1/Week 1) to Visit 2 (Week 12)

    Kinesia-ONE™ measures were averaged from triplicate repeated assessments at a measurement point. The finger tapping speed scores and resting tremor scores were averaged and provided as one score ranging from 0 to 4 (where 0 is normal and 4 represents severe abnormalities), with negative change from Baseline scores indicating improvement in disease symptoms.

  5. Change From Baseline to Visit 2 in Kinesia-ONE™ Variable: Postural Tremor Score

    Time frame: Baseline (Visit 1/Week 1) to Visit 2 (Week 12)

    Kinesia-ONE™ measures were averaged from triplicate repeated assessments at a measurement point. Kinesia-ONE scores ranged from 0 to 4 (where 0 is normal and 4 represents severe abnormalities), with negative change from Baseline scores indicating improvement in disease symptoms.

  6. Change From Baseline to Visit 2 in Kinesia-ONE™ Variable: Finger Tapping Amplitude Score

    Time frame: Baseline (Visit 1/Week 1) to Visit 2 (Week 12)

    Kinesia-ONE™ measures were averaged from triplicate repeated assessments at a measurement point. Kinesia-ONE scores ranged from 0 to 4 (where 0 is normal and 4 represents severe abnormalities), with negative change from Baseline scores indicating improvement in disease symptoms.

  7. Change From Baseline to Visit 2 in Kinesia-ONE™ Variable: Hand Grasp Speed Score

    Time frame: Baseline (Visit 1/Week 1) to Visit 2 (Week 12)

    Kinesia-ONE™ measures were averaged from triplicate repeated assessments at a measurement point. Kinesia-ONE scores ranged from 0 to 4 (where 0 is normal and 4 represents severe abnormalities), with negative change from Baseline scores indicating improvement in disease symptoms.

  8. Change From Baseline to Visit 2 in Kinesia-ONE™ Variable: Hand Grasp Amplitude Score

    Time frame: Baseline (Visit 1/Week 1) to Visit 2 (Week 12)

    Kinesia-ONE™ measures were averaged from triplicate repeated assessments at a measurement point. Kinesia-ONE scores ranged from 0 to 4 (where 0 is normal and 4 represents severe abnormalities), with negative change from Baseline scores indicating improvement in disease symptoms.

  9. Change From Baseline to Visit 2 in Kinesia-ONE™ Variable: Rapid Alternating Movement Speed Score

    Time frame: Baseline (Visit 1/Week 1) to Visit 2 (Week 12)

    Kinesia-ONE™ measures were averaged from triplicate repeated assessments at a measurement point. Kinesia-ONE scores ranged from 0 to 4 (where 0 is normal and 4 represents severe abnormalities), with negative change from Baseline scores indicating improvement in disease symptoms.

  10. Change From Baseline to Visit 2 in Kinesia-ONE™ Variable: Rapid Alternating Amplitude Score

    Time frame: Baseline (Visit 1/Week 1) to Visit 2 (Week 12)

    Kinesia-ONE™ measures were averaged from triplicate repeated assessments at a measurement point. Kinesia-ONE scores ranged from 0 to 4 (where 0 is normal and 4 represents severe abnormalities), with negative change from Baseline scores indicating improvement in disease symptoms.

  11. Change From Baseline to Visit 2 in Kinesia-ONE™ Variable: Dyskinesia Score

    Time frame: Baseline (Visit 1/Week 1) to Visit 2 (Week 12)

    Kinesia-ONE™ measures were averaged from triplicate repeated assessments at a measurement point. Kinesia-ONE scores ranged from 0 to 4 (where 0 is normal and 4 represents severe abnormalities), with negative change from Baseline scores indicating improvement in disease symptoms.

  12. Neupro Dose Per 24h at Visit 2 (Week 12)

    Time frame: Visit 2 (Week 12)

    Daily dose of study medication taken at respective visit.

  13. Number of Neupro Dose Changes During the Study

    Time frame: Visit 1 (Week 1) to Visit 2 (Week 12)

    Dose adjustments during study are performed per standard of care.

  14. Number of Subjects Who Discontinued the Treatment With Neupro During the Course of the Study

    Time frame: Visit 1 (Week 1) to Visit 2 (Week 12)

    Number of subjects who discontinued Neupro Treatment were recorded.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of Subjects With Any Adverse Events During the Course of the Study

    Time frame: Visit 1 (Week 1) to Visit 2 (Week 12)

    An Adverse Event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE could therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product.
