Eligibility Criteria

30 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Diagnosis of idiopathic Parkinson's disease according to the United Kingdom Parkinson's Disease Society (UKPDS) Brain Bank Criteria.
  2. Subjects have 4 or 5 in modified Hohn and Yahr (H & Y) classification of disease severity at "Off" state determined by the UPDRS Part V at Screening Visit 1.
  3. The subject's advanced Parkinson's disease must be levodopa-responsive as judged by the Investigator.
  4. Subjects have had optimal treatment with available Parkinson's disease medication as defined by local standards of care and, based upon the judgment of the Investigator, and their symptoms are judged inadequately controlled on this optimized treatment. Optimized treatment is defined as the maximum therapeutic effect obtained with available anti-parkinsonian pharmacological therapy when no further improvement is expected regardless of any additional manipulations of levodopa and/or other anti parkinsonian medication; this will be based on the Investigator's best clinical judgment.
  5. Presence of a recognizable "Off" and "On" state (motor fluctuations) as confirmed by UPDRS Part III (in both "On" and "Off" states), and by the Parkinson's Disease Diary© which must be observed and confirmed at Screening Visit 1.
  6. Subjects must be experiencing a minimum of 3 hours per day of "Off" time, as estimated by the Investigator and supported by the UPDRS at Screening Visit 1 and the Parkinson's Disease Diaries at baseline. The "Off" time must occur during a continuous 16-hour interval, including the portion of the day during which the subject is awake the majority of the time (e.g., 5 AM to 9 PM, 7 AM to 11 PM).

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Parkinson's disease diagnosis is unclear or a suspicion of other parkinsonian syndromes exists, such as secondary Parkinsonism (caused by drugs, toxins, infectious agents, vascular disease, trauma, brain neoplasm), Parkinson's-plus syndromes (e.g., multiple system atrophy, progressive supranuclear palsy) or the other neurodegenerative diseases that might mimic the symptoms of Parkinson's disease .
  2. Subjects who have undergone neurosurgery for the treatment of Parkinson's disease .
  3. Current primary psychiatric diagnosis of acute psychotic disorder or other uncontrolled primary psychiatric diagnoses, (e.g., bipolar disorder or major depressive disorder per Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 4th edition, Text Revision (DSM-IV-TR) criteria.
  4. Alzheimer's disease; or other significant cognitive impairment or dementia (defined as Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) total score < 24).
  5. Subject has significant current suicidal ideation within the previous year as evidenced by answering "yes" to questions 4 or 5 on the suicidal ideation portion of the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) completed at Screening or any history of suicide attempts.
  6. A low B12 level or low-normal B12 level (less than 300 pg/mL) with elevated methylmalonic acid (MMA). Note: Abnormal Vitamin B12 of questionable clinical significance (i.e., indeterminate or low normal results) prior to or at Screening Visit 2 require appropriate interpretation in conjunction with MMA and homocysteine laboratory values prior to proceeding further into the study.

    Arms of the Study

    Arm 1

    Arm Type

    Experimental

    Arm Label

    Levodopa-Carbidopa Intestinal Gel (LCIG)

    Arm Description

    All participants received LCIG via the N-J tube during the nasojejunal (N-J) Test Period and delivered to the proximal small intestine via percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy - with jejunal extension tube (PEG-J) during the Post-PEG-J Long-Term Treatment Period. The starting dose was individually determined based on the daily dose of oral levodopa prior to study enrollment. The infusion dose was individually optimized for each participant on the basis of response and potential adverse events. During the PEG-J Period, LCIG was expected to be infused continuously over approximately 16 hours daily with a rate of infusion ranging from 1 to 10 mL/hour (20 to 200 mg of levodopa/hour).

    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Average Daily Normalized "Off" Time: Change From Baseline To The Final PEG-J Visit
    Based on the Parkinson's Disease Symptom Diary. "On" time is when PD symptoms are well controlled by the drug. "Off" time is when PD symptoms are not adequately controlled by the drug. The diary is completed every 30 minutes for the full 24 hours of each of 3 days prior to selected clinic visits. It reflects both time awake and time asleep. Daily totals are normalized to a 16-hour scale (i.e. 16 hours of awake time). The normalized totals for the 3 days prior to the visit are averaged for the analysis. Negative change from baseline for "off" time indicates improvement.

    Based on the Parkinson's Disease Symptom Diary. "On" time is when PD symptoms are well controlled by the drug. "Off" time is when PD symptoms are not adequately controlled by the drug. The diary is completed every 30 minutes for the full 24 hours of each of 3 days prior to selected clinic visits. It reflects both time awake and time asleep. Daily totals are normalized to a 16-hour scale (i.e. 16 hours of awake time). The normalized totals for the 3 days prior to the visit are averaged for the analysis. Negative change from baseline for "off" time indicates improvement.
    Time Frame
    Baseline (end of screening period) and Final PEG-J Visit (up to week 12)

    Title
    Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
    Description
    An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. A serious AE (SAE) is an event that results in death, is life-threatening, requires or prolongs hospitalization, results in a congenital anomaly, persistent or significant disability/incapacity or is an important medical event that, based on medical judgment, may jeopardize the participant and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent any of the outcomes listed above. Treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) are defined as any event that began or worsened in severity after N-J placement. The investigator assessed the relationship of each event to the use of study drug as Reasonable Possibility or No Reasonable Possibility. For more details on adverse events please see the AE section below.
    Time Frame
    From N-J placement to the end of study or early termination of treatment, including the removal of PEG-J (up to 17 weeks), plus 30 days.

    Eligibility Criteria
    Inclusion Criteria: Diagnosis of idiopathic Parkinson's disease according to the United Kingdom Parkinson's Disease Society (UKPDS) Brain Bank Criteria. Subjects have 4 or 5 in modified Hohn and Yahr (H & Y) classification of disease severity at "Off" state determined by the UPDRS Part V at Screening Visit 1. The subject's advanced Parkinson's disease must be levodopa-responsive as judged by the Investigator. Subjects have had optimal treatment with available Parkinson's disease medication as defined by local standards of care and, based upon the judgment of the Investigator, and their symptoms are judged inadequately controlled on this optimized treatment. Optimized treatment is defined as the maximum therapeutic effect obtained with available anti-parkinsonian pharmacological therapy when no further improvement is expected regardless of any additional manipulations of levodopa and/or other anti parkinsonian medication; this will be based on the Investigator's best clinical judgment. Presence of a recognizable "Off" and "On" state (motor fluctuations) as confirmed by UPDRS Part III (in both "On" and "Off" states), and by the Parkinson's Disease Diary© which must be observed and confirmed at Screening Visit 1. Subjects must be experiencing a minimum of 3 hours per day of "Off" time, as estimated by the Investigator and supported by the UPDRS at Screening Visit 1 and the Parkinson's Disease Diaries at baseline. The "Off" time must occur during a continuous 16-hour interval, including the portion of the day during which the subject is awake the majority of the time (e.g., 5 AM to 9 PM, 7 AM to 11 PM). Exclusion Criteria: Parkinson's disease diagnosis is unclear or a suspicion of other parkinsonian syndromes exists, such as secondary Parkinsonism (caused by drugs, toxins, infectious agents, vascular disease, trauma, brain neoplasm), Parkinson's-plus syndromes (e.g., multiple system atrophy, progressive supranuclear palsy) or the other neurodegenerative diseases that might mimic the symptoms of Parkinson's disease . Subjects who have undergone neurosurgery for the treatment of Parkinson's disease . Current primary psychiatric diagnosis of acute psychotic disorder or other uncontrolled primary psychiatric diagnoses, (e.g., bipolar disorder or major depressive disorder per Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 4th edition, Text Revision (DSM-IV-TR) criteria. Alzheimer's disease; or other significant cognitive impairment or dementia (defined as Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) total score < 24). Subject has significant current suicidal ideation within the previous year as evidenced by answering "yes" to questions 4 or 5 on the suicidal ideation portion of the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) completed at Screening or any history of suicide attempts. A low B12 level or low-normal B12 level (less than 300 pg/mL) with elevated methylmalonic acid (MMA). Note: Abnormal Vitamin B12 of questionable clinical significance (i.e., indeterminate or low normal results) prior to or at Screening Visit 2 require appropriate interpretation in conjunction with MMA and homocysteine laboratory values prior to proceeding further into the study.
