+Outcome measures
Primary outcomes
- Time-Matched Change From Baseline in QTc, Placebo-Adjusted and Corrected for Heart Rate Based on the Fridericia Correction Method (QTcF) Using Delta Delta Method (ΔΔQTcF): Comparison Between APL-130277 and Placebo (Central Tendency Analysis) [Baseline to 15, 30, 45, 60 mins and 2, 3, and 4 hours post-dose for each of the 3 treatment period dosing visits.]: For the primary central tendency analysis, the changes from baseline (ΔQTcF) were compared between APL-130277 and placebo (ΔΔQTcF). Baseline was defined as the mean of the 9 ECGs (3 sets of triplicate ECGs) recorded at baseline (P1V1). In case any of the 9 ECGs were missing, the baseline was defined as the mean of the available baseline values. The post-dose ECGs were evaluated at 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes (mins) and 2, 3 and 4 hours post-dose at each of the 3 treatment period dosing visits during the Randomized Crossover Assessment Phase. For each of the time points, an average value was calculated based on the 3 (or all available) ECGs. These average values were used in all change from baseline calculations.

PK parameters were derived using a non-compartmental analysis method. Bioanalysis of apomorphine and apomorphine-sulfate plasma concentration were measured using a validated LC/MS-MS method. The calibration range was 0.0200 ng/mL to 20.0 ng/mL apomorphine and 10.0 to 1000 ng/mL apomorphine sulfate. PK assessments were performed at each period of the Randomized Crossover Assessment Phase (at P1V1, P2V2 and P3V3) and results are presented for each of the APL-130277 doses administered (as determined for each patient during the Dose Titration Phase).
- Number of Patients With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) [From first dose of study medication up to last study visit for Randomized Crossover Assessment Phase, approximately up to 2 weeks]: AE definition: any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical trial participant. Serious AE definition: an AE that is fatal, life threatening, requires in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in permanent (persistent) disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect or is an important medical event. Severity of AEs were classified as: mild: causes no limitation of usual activities, moderate: causes some limitation of usual activities; or severe: prevents or severely limits usual activities. The investigator assessed AEs for relatedness to study medication. TEAEs were defined as all AEs that started on or after the first dose of study medication (APL-130277, moxifloxacin or placebo). Results are presented for TEAEs during the Randomized Crossover Assessment Phase.

The scale range was from 0 to 132, with a lower score indicating better motor function and a higher score indicating more severe motor symptoms.
The least squares mean change in the MDS-UPDRS Part III score from pre-dose to 30, 60 and 90 minutes post-dose during the Dose Titration Phase at the highest tolerated APL-130277 dose level (indicated as Day 2) and the lowest APL-130277 dose resulting in a full 'ON' (indicated as Day 1) are presented.
