Brief summary
An open-label randomized study to evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and PK of Low and High single doses of ND0612 (i.e. LD/CD ratio 60/7.5 mg/mL and 60/14 mg/mL), as well as the combination with oral Entacapone (concomitant catechol-O-methyl transferase \[COMT\] inhibitor) in PD subjects with well-defined morning OFF and a good response to LD. Exploratory efficacy parameters were collected (early evidence of effectiveness as part of Phase 1).
Detailed description
PD subjects were randomized in Low or High LD dose study group in 1:1 ratio. Each patient received singe doses ND0612 over 3 days: Day 1. LD/CD 60/7.5 mg/mL, Day 2. LD/CD 60/14 mg, and Day 3. LD/CD 60/14 mg/mL with Entacapone.
Interventions
Levodopa/carbidopa SC solution
Entacapone 200 mg oral tablet
