H. Lundbeck Lundbeck's partner Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. has today announced the successful completion of ADAGIO, the phase III trial designed to demonstrate that Azilect® 1 mg tablets can slow down the progression of Parkinson's disease. In the trial, the currently marketed Azilect® 1 mg tablets met all three primary end points, as well as the secondary and additional end points, all with statistical significance. The study also confirmed the safety and tolerability of Azilect®.
Lundbeck markets Azilect® in Europe. In the three major European markets, the United Kingdom, Germany and France, Teva and Lundbeck co-promote Azilect®.
About the Study ADAGIO is a randomized, multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study prospectively examining rasagiline's potential disease-modifying effects in 1,176 patients with early, untreated Parkinson's disease. Patients from 129 centers in 14 countries were randomized to early-start treatment (72 weeks rasagiline 1 or 2 mg once daily) or delayed-start treatment (36 weeks placebo followed by 36 weeks rasagiline 1 or 2 mg once daily [active treatment phase]). The primary analyses of the trial were based on change in total UPDRS (Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale).
The content of this release will have no influence on the Lundbeck Group's financial result for 2008. Lundbeck expects the good results to have a significant positive impact on Azilect® sales in Europe in the coming years.
