Brief summary

To assess the long-term safety and tolerability of ACP-103 in subjects with Parkinson's disease psychosis.

Detailed description

This study did not have a fixed duration, and the duration of individual subject participation was determined based on investigator assessment of subject tolerability and continued benefit until such time as either the drug was commercially available in the US, or an alternate treatment extension was available in non-US regions. For this reason, no subjects, therefore, were considered to have completed the study.

Interventions

Tablets taken once daily by mouth for as long as ACP-103 is considered to be tolerated and beneficial to subjects

Participant flow

Recruitment details

Eligible patients were adult males or females with Parkinson's Disease Psychosis who had completed a prior double blind study with pimavanserin and were determined by the treating physician (Investigator) to benefit from continued treatment. This study did not have a fixed duration. Thus, no patients were considered to have completed the study.

Pre-assignment details

Patients could be enrolled in this study as early as the final visit of the previous double-blind study, or up to 28 days following completion of the treatment period of the previous double-blind study.
