Brief Summary:
This is a randomized, parallel group, multicentre, multinational, prospective, open-label exploratory study in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients to evaluate the add-on efficacy of opicapone 50 mg or an extra dose of levodopa (L-DOPA) 100 mg as first strategy for the treatment of wearing-off.

Parkinson Disease Drug: Opicapone Drug: L-DOPA/DDCI Phase 4

Detailed Description:
The study consists of a one-week screening period, four weeks of open-label treatment and two weeks of post-study follow-up. The total study duration for each patient will be approximately 7 weeks

Outcome Measures

Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in Absolute OFF-time from baseline to end of study [ Time Frame: up to 7 weeks ]
    OFF = Time when medication has worn off and is no longer providing benefit with regard to mobility, slowness, and stiffness.

  2. Proportion of patients with one hour or more reduction in Absolute OFF-time from baseline to end of study (OFF-time responders) [ Time Frame: up to 7 weeks ]
    OFF = Time when medication has worn off and is no longer providing benefit with regard to mobility, slowness, and stiffness.

  3. Change in Absolute ON-time from baseline to end of study [ Time Frame: up to 7 weeks ]
    ON = Time when medication is providing benefit with regard to mobility, slowness, and stiffness.

  4. Proportion of patients with one hour or more increase in Absolute ON-time from baseline to end of study (ON-time responders) [ Time Frame: up to 7 weeks ]
    ON = Time when medication is providing benefit with regard to mobility, slowness, and stiffness.

  5. Change in Percentage OFF-time between baseline and end of study [ Time Frame: up to 7 weeks ]
    OFF = Time when medication has worn off and is no longer providing benefit with regard

  6. Change in Percentage ON-time between baseline and end of study [ Time Frame: up to 7 weeks ]
    ON = Time when medication is providing benefit with regard to mobility, slowness, and stiffness.

Ages Eligible for Study:   30 Years and older   (Adult, Older Adult)
Sexes Eligible for Study:   All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Able to comprehend and willing to sign an informed consent form and to comply with all aspects of the study.
  2. Male or female patients aged 30 years or older.
  3. Diagnosed with idiopathic PD according to the UK Parkinson's Disease Society Brain Bank Clinical Diagnostic Criteria (2006) or according to the Movement Disorder Society (MDS) Clinical Diagnostic Criteria (2015).
  4. Disease severity Stages I-III (Hoehn & Yahr staging) at ON.
  5. Treated on a stable regimen for at least four weeks before screening with immediate-release L-DOPA/DDCI, three to four intakes per day, and up to maximum daily dose of 600 mg L-DOPA.
  6. In case of any other anti-PD-treatments, they should be on a stable regimen for at least four weeks before screening, and not likely to need any adjustment during the study.
  7. Signs of wearing-off phenomenon with average total daily OFF-time while awake of at least 1 hour, including the early morning pre-first dose OFF (i.e. the time between wake-up and response to the first L DOPA/DDCI dosage), despite optimal anti-PD therapy (based on Investigator's assessment).
  8. Experiencing wearing-off phenomenon for at least 4 weeks but less than 2 years prior to screening.
  9. For females: Postmenopausal for at least 2 years before screening, surgically sterile for at least 6 months before screening, or practicing effective contraception until the post-study visit. Female patients who request to continue with oral contraceptives must be willing to use non-hormonal methods of contraception in addition during the course of this study.
  10. Have filled-in self-rating diary charts in accordance with the diary chart instructions and with ≤3 errors per day while awake, in the three consecutive days preceding randomization.
  11. With at least 1 hour at OFF state per day, including the early morning pre-first dose OFF period (i.e. the time between wake-up and response to the first L DOPA/DDCI dosage), as recorded in at least two of the three-day self-rating diary charts for the three days preceding randomization.
  12. Adequate compliance to relevant concomitant medication during the period between V1 and V2 (based on the Investigator's judgment).

Exclusion Criteria:

  6. Previous or current use of opicapone or L-DOPA/carbidopa intestinal gel infusion.
  7. Use of any other investigational product (IP), currently or within the 3 months (or within 5 half-lives of the IP, whichever is longer) before screening.
  8. Past (within the past year) or present history of suicidal ideation or suicide attempts.
  9. Current or previous (within the past year) alcohol or substance abuse excluding caffeine or nicotine.

  12. History of neuroleptic malignant syndrome or non-traumatic rhabdomyolysis.
  13. History of severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Class C).
  14. Current or previous (within the past year) diagnosis of psychosis, severe major depression or other psychiatric disorders that, based on the Investigator's judgment, might place the patient at increased risk or interfere with assessments.
  15. Any medical condition that might place the patient at increased risk or interfere with assessments.
  16. For females: Pregnant or breastfeeding.
  17. Employees of the Investigator, study centre, Sponsor, clinical research organisation and study consultants, when employees are directly involved in this study or other studies under the direction of this Investigator or study centre, and their family members.

  19. With an average total daily OFF-time while awake of >5 hours, including the early morning pre-first dose OFF period (i.e. the time between wake-up and response to the first L DOPA/DDCI dosage), as recorded in at least two of the three-day self-rating diary charts for the three days preceding randomization
