Core Insights - Neurocrine Biosciences announced new data from the Phase 4 KINECT-PRO study showing significant improvements in physical, social, and emotional functioning in patients with tardive dyskinesia treated with INGREZZA [1][6][4] Group 1: Study Overview - KINECT-PRO is the first study to evaluate patient-reported outcomes with INGREZZA using multiple validated scales, including the Tardive Dyskinesia Impact Scale [1][6] - The study enrolled 59 patients who received once-daily INGREZZA (40 mg, 60 mg, or 80 mg) for up to 24 weeks, with 52 patients completing the Week 24 visit [2][4] Group 2: Study Objectives and Measures - The primary objective was to assess changes in patient-reported physical and socio-emotional impacts of tardive dyskinesia during treatment [3] - Outcomes were measured at Weeks 4, 8, 16, and 24 using the Tardive Dyskinesia Impact Scale, Sheehan Disability Scale, and EQ Visual Analogue Scale [3] Group 3: Results and Improvements - Improvements in TDIS, SDS, EQ-VAS, and AIMS were observed as early as Week 4 and sustained through Week 24, indicating robust and clinically meaningful enhancements in functioning [4][6] - The mean change from baseline at Week 24 for the overall population showed a reduction of -8.0 in TDIS, -2.3 in social life, -1.6 in family life, an increase of +13.1 in EQ-VAS, and a reduction of -6.8 in AIMS total score [5] Group 4: Subgroup Analysis - Both mild and moderate/severe tardive dyskinesia subgroups showed significant improvements, with mild TD subgroup reporting a mean change of -6.8 in TDIS and +12.8 in EQ-VAS [5][7] - The moderate/severe TD subgroup reported a mean change of -8.9 in TDIS and +13.3 in EQ-VAS [7] Group 5: Safety and Tolerability - The safety and tolerability profile of INGREZZA was consistent with known data, with no new safety concerns identified during the study [7][6]
