dihydroxyphenylalanine and Ataxia

dihydroxyphenylalanine has been researched along with Ataxia in 12 studies

Dihydroxyphenylalanine: A beta-hydroxylated derivative of phenylalanine. The D-form of dihydroxyphenylalanine has less physiologic activity than the L-form and is commonly used experimentally to determine whether the pharmacological effects of LEVODOPA are stereospecific.
dopa : A hydroxyphenylalanine carrying hydroxy substituents at positions 3 and 4 of the benzene ring.

Ataxia: Impairment of the ability to perform smoothly coordinated voluntary movements. This condition may affect the limbs, trunk, eyes, pharynx, larynx, and other structures. Ataxia may result from impaired sensory or motor function. Sensory ataxia may result from posterior column injury or PERIPHERAL NERVE DISEASES. Motor ataxia may be associated with CEREBELLAR DISEASES; CEREBRAL CORTEX diseases; THALAMIC DISEASES; BASAL GANGLIA DISEASES; injury to the RED NUCLEUS; and other conditions.

Trial Outcomes

Change From Baseline in Movement Disorder's Society - Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) (Parts I-III Combined Scores)

"To evaluate clinical progression of PD as assessed by the MDS-UPDRS, combined score, Parts I, II, and III.~Part I - non-motor experiences of daily living; Part II - motor experiences of daily living; Part III - motor examination. Parts I and II each contain 13 questions measured on a 5-point scale (0-4). Part III contains 18 objective rater assessments of the motor signs of PD measured on a 5-point scale (0-4).~Total range for combined score (Part I-III) is = 0-176. Generally for MDS-UPDRS scores and sub-scores, the lower the score, the better.~Parts I, II, and III are summed to make the total score." (NCT02202551)
Timeframe: Up to 101 weeks. MDS-UPDRS was performed at the following visits: Screening, Week 8, Week 16, Week 28, Week 40, Week 52, Week 64, Week 76, Week 88, Week 100 (or ET).

Change From Baseline in Movement Disorder's Society - Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale MDS-UPDRS (Part IV - Motor Complications)

"This component (Questions 4.1 - 4.6) includes time spent with dyskinesia, functional impact of dyskinesia, time spent in OFF state, functional impact of fluctuations, complexity of motor fluctuations, painful OFF-state dystonia. Questions 4.1-4.6 are summed to make the Part IV score.~Generally for MDS-UPDRS scores and sub-scores, the lower the score, the better. Total range for Part IV is = 0-24" (NCT02202551)
