methylphenidate and Idiopathic Parkinson Disease

methylphenidate has been researched along with Idiopathic Parkinson Disease in 43 studies

Methylphenidate: A central nervous system stimulant used most commonly in the treatment of ATTENTION DEFICIT DISORDER in children and for NARCOLEPSY. Its mechanisms appear to be similar to those of DEXTROAMPHETAMINE. The d-isomer of this drug is referred to as DEXMETHYLPHENIDATE HYDROCHLORIDE.
methylphenidate : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of the two threo isomers of methyl phenyl(piperidin-2-yl)acetate. A central stimulant and indirect-acting sympathomimetic, is used (generally as the hydrochloride salt) in the treatment of hyperactivity disorders in children and for the treatment of narcolepsy.
methyl phenyl(piperidin-2-yl)acetate : A amino acid ester that is methyl phenylacetate in which one of the hydrogens alpha to the carbonyl group is replaced by a piperidin-2-yl group.

Trial Outcomes

Freezing of Gait Questionnaire (FOGQ) Scores Between Groups at 12 and 27 Weeks.

FOGQ is a questionnaire that quantifies severity of gait and falls. It contains 16 items with a 0-4 severity scale for each, for a range of 0 (normal) to 64 (most severe impairment). (NCT00526630)
Timeframe: Week 12 and 27

Interventionunits on a scale (Mean)
1. MPD12.31
2. Placebo12.56
Baseline12.71

Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Between Groups at 12 and 27 Weeks.

MADRS is a questionnaire used to measure the severity of depressive episodes in patients with mood disorders. Higher MADRS score indicates more severe depression, and each item yields a score of 0 to 6. The overall score ranges from 0 to 60 (NCT00526630)
Timeframe: Week 12 and 27

Interventionunits on a scale (Mean)
1. MPD5.79
2. Placebo6.71

The 5-item EuroQoL (EQ-5D) Quality of Life Generic Instrument Between Groups at 12 and 27 Weeks.

The EQ-5D comprises five questions on mobility, self care, pain, usual activities, and psychological status with three possible answers for each item (1=no problem, 2=moderate problem, 3=severe problem; see appendix). A summary index with a maximum score of 1 can be derived from these five dimensions by conversion with a table of scores. The range is from 0 to 100, with 100 indicating the best health status. (NCT00526630)

The Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) Between Groups at 12 and 27 Weeks

The Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) is a scale intended to measure daytime sleepiness that is measured by use of a very short questionnaire. The questionnaire asks the subject to rate his or her probability of falling asleep on a scale of increasing probability from 0 to 3 for eight different situations that most people engage in during their daily lives, though not necessarily every day. The scores for the eight questions are added together to obtain a single number. A number in the 0-9 range is considered to be normal while a number in the 10-24 range indicates excessive daytime sleepiness. Higher scores imply worse sleepiness. (NCT00526630)
Timeframe: Week 12 and 27

2. Placebo10.71

The Primary Outcome Measure Was Change in a Gait Stride Length Between Groups at 12 and 27 Weeks.

"Gait stride length is the distance between two consecutive steps in the on state. This will be measured by the GAITRite System, which is an electronic walkway utilized to measure the temporal (timing) and spatial (two dimension geometric position) parameters of its pressure activated sensors."

"Gait velocity is a measure of distance over time in the on state. This will be measured by the GAITRite System, which is an electronic walkway utilized to measure the temporal (timing) and spatial (two dimension geometric position) parameters of its pressure activated sensors." (NCT00526630)

The Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Between Groups at 12 and 27 Weeks

Patients will have a mild to severe gait disturbance with score >1 on the motor subscale of the Unified Parkinson's disease rating scale (UPDRS) but without need for a continuous ambulatory aid such as walker or wheelchair (Hoehn & Yahr 2-3). The highest score possible for the UPDRS is 108 which indicates severe motor impairment. The lowest score for the UPDRS is 0 which indicates no motor impairment. (NCT00526630)
