Brief Summary:

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of BIIB054 via dose response using the change from baseline in Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Total Score.

The secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate the dose-related safety of BIIB054, to evaluate the clinical efficacy of BIIB054 via MDS-UPDRS total score, to assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of BIIB054, to evaluate the clinical efficacy of BIIB054 based on MDS-UPDRS subparts, to evaluate the pharmacodynamic effects of BIIB054 on the integrity of nigrostriatal dopaminergic nerve terminals and to evaluate the immunogenicity of BIIB054.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change From Baseline in Movement Disorder Society Sponsored Revision of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Total Score (Sum of Parts I, II, and III) at Week 52 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 52 ]
    MDS-UPDRS is a multimodal scale assessing impairment and disability consisting of 4 parts. Part I assessed non-motor experiences of daily living and has 2 components (Range 0-52). Part IA contained 6 questions and were assessed by the examiner (Range 0-24). Part IB contained 7 questions on non-motor experiences of daily living which were completed by the participant (Range 0-28). Part II assessed motor experiences of daily living (Range 0-52). It contained 13 questions completed by the participant. Part III assessed the motor signs of PD and was administered by the rater (Range 0-132). Part III contained 33 scores based on 18 items. For each question a numeric score was assigned between 0-4, where 0 = Normal, 1 = Slight, 2 = Mild, 3 = Moderate, 4 = Severe. MDS-UPDRS Total Score equals the sum of Parts I, II, and III (Range 0-236). A higher score indicated more severe symptoms of PD. The mean values reported are the adjusted mean values.

  2. Change From Baseline in Movement Disorder Society Sponsored Revision of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Total Score (Sum of Parts I, II, and III) at Week 72 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 72 ]
    MDS-UPDRS is a multimodal scale assessing impairment and disability consisting of 4 parts. Part I assessed non-motor experiences of daily living and has 2 components (Range 0-52). Part IA contained 6 questions and were assessed by the examiner (Range 0-24). Part IB contained 7 questions on non-motor experiences of daily living which were completed by the participant (Range 0-28). Part II assessed motor experiences of daily living (Range 0-52). It contained 13 questions completed by the participant. Part III assessed the motor signs of PD and was administered by the rater (Range 0-132). Part III contained 33 scores based on 18 items. For each question a numeric score was assigned between 0-4, where 0 = Normal, 1 = Slight, 2 = Mild, 3 = Moderate, 4 = Severe. MDS-UPDRS Total Score equals the sum of Parts I, II, and III (Range 0-236). A higher score indicated more severe symptoms of PD. The mean values reported are the adjusted mean values.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [ Time Frame: Up to 3 years ]
    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product. An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose, results in death; in the view of the investigator places the participant at immediate risk of death; requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; results in a congenital anomaly/birth defect; is a medically important event.

  2. Change From Baseline in MDS-UPDRS Total Score (Sum of Parts I, II, and III) at Week 96 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 96 ]
    MDS-UPDRS is a multimodal scale assessing impairment and disability consisting of 4 parts. Part I assessed non-motor experiences of daily living and has 2 components (Range 0-52). Part IA contained 6 questions and were assessed by the examiner (Range 0-24). Part IB contained 7 questions on non-motor experiences of daily living which were completed by the participant (Range 0-28). Part II assessed motor experiences of daily living (Range 0-52). It contained 13 questions completed by the participant. Part III assessed the motor signs of PD and was administered by the rater (Range 0-132). Part III contained 33 scores based on 18 items. For each question a numeric score was assigned between 0-4, where 0 = Normal, 1 = Slight, 2 = Mild, 3 = Moderate, 4 = Severe. MDS-UPDRS Total Score equals the sum of Parts I, II, and III (Range 0-236). A higher score indicated more severe symptoms of PD. The mean values reported are the adjusted mean values.
