NCT ID:
NCT02271503
Brief Summary:
This is a randomized, open-label, rater-blinded, multicenter, 3-treatment, 3 period, single-dose crossover study. Approximately 51 qualified immediate-release (IR) CD-LD-experienced advanced Parkinson's disease patients will be randomized to 1 of 3 dosing sequences.
Objectives:
* Assess the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics (PK) of IPX203 (carbidopa and levodopa) in subjects with advanced Parkinson's disease.
* Characterize the safety of IPX203 in subjects with advanced Parkinson's disease.
Detailed Description:
IPX203 contains two different drugs called levodopa and carbidopa in one capsule.
* levodopa turns into a material called 'dopamine' in your brain. The dopamine helps to improve the symptoms of your Parkinson's disease.
* carbidopa belongs to a group of medicines called 'aromatic amino acid decarboxylase inhibitors'. It helps levodopa work more effectively by slowing the speed at which levodopa is broken down in your body.
