Prasinezumab, a monoclonal antibody that binds aggregated α-synuclein, is being investigated as a potential disease-modifying therapy in early-stage Parkinson’s disease.

Although in the PASADENA phase 2 study, the primary endpoint sum of Parts I + II + III) was not met, prasinezumab-treated individuals exhibited slower progression of motor signs than placebo-treated participants . We report here an exploratory analysis assessing whether prasinezumab showed greater benefits on motor signs progression in prespecified subgroups with faster motor progression.

The study is sponsored by F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd. F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd was involved in the study design, collection, analysis, interpretation of data, the writing of this article and the decision to submit it for publication. We thank the patients and their families who participated in the study and the clinical investigators.
