Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of TAK-831 versus placebo on upper extremity (arm and hands) motor function and manual dexterity. This study will also evaluate the efficacy of TAK-831 versus placebo on activities of daily living (ADL) and other secondary assessments.

Primary Outcome

The 9-HPT-1 is a measure of timed upper extremity (arm and hand) function and manual dexterity. The participant picks up pegs 1 at a time (9 in total), using 1 hand only, and places them into holes on the board as quickly as possible, in any order until all holes are filled. Then, without pausing, the participant removes the pegs 1 at a time and returns them as quickly as possible. Each participant performs this task twice with each hand separately. Results on both tests are then averaged for an
