 effect of prasinezumab was more pronounced in a pre-specified analysis in the population treated with levodopa (75% of participants), HR=0.79 [0.63-0.99] and nominal p=0.0431. Pre-specified supplementary covariate-adjusted analyses of these endpoints demonstrated nominally significant effects on the primary endpoint (HR=0.81 [0.67-0.98]; nominal p=0.0334) and in the levodopa subgroup (HR=0.76 [0.61-0.95]; nominal p=0.0175). Covariates used for adjustment: medication at baseline, H&Y stage, DaT-SPECT, age, sex, baseline dependent parameter. Consistent positive trends across multiple secondary and exploratory endpoints were also observed. Prasinezumab continues to be well tolerated and no new safety signals were observed in the study. 

Prasinezumab is the first anti-alpha synuclein antibody to advance into late-stage development. In March 2022, results from the analysis of part 2 of the Phase 2 PASADENA trial of prasinezumab were presented in an oral presentation by Roche at the International Conference on Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Diseases (“AD/PD 2022”). Results showed that participants with Parkinson’s disease who were treated with prasinezumab for two years (early-start group) showed slower decline of MDS-UPDRS Part III scores relative to participants treated with placebo in the first year and prasinezumab in the second year (delayed-start group), further supporting a potential effect on delaying motor progression in patients. In October 2024, Roche published results in Nature Medicine from the long term open-label extension of the PASADENA trial, which compared the prasinezumab population with a propensity score-balanced cohort of real-world data (“RWD”) Parkinson’s Progression Markers Initiative (“PPMI”). The data suggests that prasinezumab continued to show reduced motor and functional progression in prazinezumab-treated individuals with early-stage Parkinson’s disease compared to a real-world data arm on MDS-UPDRS Part III score (clinician rated motor examination) OFF and ON symptomatic medication state and MDS-UPDRS Part II score (patient-reported motor experiences of daily living). The Phase 2 PASADENA and Phase 2b PADOVA open-label extension studies will continue in
