Summary
The primary objective of this study will be to demonstrate the superiority of levodopa -
carbidopa intestinal gel over treatment with optimized oral levodopa/carbidopa during 12
weeks. The study duration is 4 months.
Clinical Details
Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Double-Dummy, Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability Study of Levodopa - Carbidopa Intestinal Gel in Levodopa-Responsive Parkinson's Subjects Receiving Optimized Treatments With Parkinson Medicinal Products Who Continue to Experience Persistent Motor Fluctuations
Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor), Primary Purpose: Treatment
Primary outcome: To evaluate a difference between levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel and active control in the change from baseline and mean daily 'off' time (hours)
Secondary outcome: To evaluate on time without troublesome dyskinesia, PDQ-39, UPDRS, caregiver burden
Eligibility
Minimum age: 30 Years.
Maximum age: N/A.
Gender(s): Both.
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria
- Idiopathic parkinson's disease(PD)according to UKPDS Brain Bank Criteria;
levodopa-responsive and subjects demonstrate some identifiable 'on response' established
by observation by investigator and demonstrate sever motor fluctuations in spite of
individually optimized treatment and where therapy options are indicated
Exclusion Criteria
- Diagnosis is unclear or a suspicion of other parkinsonian syndromes exists such as
secondary parkinsonism;
- Undergone surgery for the treatment of PD;
- Contraindications to levodopa, subjects with any neurological deficit that may
interfere with the study assessments
