IntroductionPimavanserin is FDA-approved to treat Parkinson's disease (PD) psychosis. We analyzed the effect of pimavanserin on psychosis in the PD dementia (PDD) subgroup from the phase 3 HARMONY trial.MethodsThis subgroup analysis included PDD patients enrolled in an international, multicenter, randomized discontinuation study of pimavanserin for dementia-related psychosis. PDD patients with moderate-to-severe psychosis, age 50-90 years, received pimavanserin 34 mg/day for 12 weeks (open-label period). Those with a sustained psychosis response to pimavanserin at weeks 8 and 12 were randomized during the double-blind period to continue pimavanserin or receive placebo. Primary efficacy endpoint was time to psychosis relapse as measured by the SAPS-H + D and CGI-I. Safety was assessed, as were effects on motor symptoms and cognitive abilities using the ESRS-A and MMSE.Results392 patients were enrolled in HARMONY (mean age: 72.6 years; 38.8 % female): 59 had PDD; 49/59 remained on pimavanserin during the open-label period (safety analysis set), and 36/49 were randomized to pimavanserin (n = 16) or placebo (n = 20) in the double-blind phase (intent-to-treat analysis set). Risk of psychosis relapse was lower with pimavanserin 34 mg compared with placebo in the double-blind phase (HR = 0.052; 95 % CI 0.016-0.166; 1-sided nominal p ConclusionsPimavanserin significantly reduced risk of psychosis relapse in patients with PDD, was well tolerated, and did not worsen motor or cognitive function.
