Brief summary
The primary objective of this study is to examine the effect of LCIG relative to that of OMT on NMS associated with PD.
Detailed description
The study will consist of 3 sequential parts: Part 1: Screening period. The screening period will consist of 3 visits, Visit 1 (V1), Visit 2 (\[V2\] \[optional\]) and the Randomization Visit (V3) in which the participant will be assessed to determine eligibility. The duration of the Screening Period can be between 30 to 67 days to accommodate the required procedures, training and collection of diaries, and to allow for stabilization of anti-PD medications and medications to treat NMS. All anti-PD medications and medications to treat NMS are required to be stable for a minimum of 30 days prior to randomization. Part 2: Treatment period. Those participants randomized to OMT at the end of V3 will remain on their current optimized regimen. The day after randomization will be considered Day 1 of their treatment period and participants will have study visits at the end of Weeks 2, 6, 12, and 26. All participants randomized to the LCIG group should have all anti-PD medications, with the exception of levodopa formulations, tapered off within 14 days after randomization. Optional nasojujunal (NJ) and/or percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy with a jejunal tube (PEG-J) placement will then occur. After that, the participant may begin initiation and titration of LCIG infusion to be adjusted to obtain the optimal clinical response. The day of initial NJ or PEG-J placement will be considered Day 1 for participants in the LCIG group. Study visits happen at the end of Weeks 2, 6, 12, and 26. Part 3: Extension/Transition Period. Eligible participants who complete the 26 week study may continue into the Extension Period of the study. Participants in the LCIG arm will have study drug dispensation every 4 weeks and will have study visits every 6 months. Participants from the OMT arm will undergo the NJ (optional) and PEG-J procedures, titration, plus have visits at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months post NJ or PEG-J. Participants will then continue to receive study drug every 4 weeks and will have study visits every 6 months until Duodopa is commercially available. Transition to a Post-Trial Access protocol will be possible if Duodopa does not become commercially available in a location.
Interventions
Oral, sublingual or transdermal anti-PD medications and medications to treat NMS per Investigator discretion and/or in accordance with approved product label of the prescribed medications.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
1. Participant(s) must have a diagnosis of idiopathic Parkinson's disease according to the United Kingdom Parkinson's Disease Society (UKPDS) Brain Bank Criteria. 2. Participant(s) demonstrates persistent motor fluctuations in spite of individually optimized treatment. 3. The participant's Parkinson's disease is levodopa-responsive. 4. Participant(s) has had optimized treatment with available anti-PD medication and their motor symptoms are judged inadequately controlled on this optimized treatment. Optimized treatment is defined as the maximum therapeutic effect obtained with pharmacological antiparkinsonian therapies when no further improvement is expected regardless of any additional manipulations of levodopa and/or other antiparkinsonian medication. This will be based on the Investigator's clinical judgment. 5. Male or female participant(s) must be at least 30 years of age. 6. Minimum Parkinson's Disease Sleep Scale 2 (PDSS-2) total score of 18 at Baseline assessment.
Exclusion criteria
1. Participant's PD diagnosis is unclear or there is a suspicion that the subject has a parkinsonian syndrome such as secondary parkinsonism (e.g. caused by drugs, toxins, infectious agents, vascular disease, trauma, brain neoplasm), parkinson-plus syndrome (e.g. Multiple System Atrophy, Progressive supranuclear Palsy, Diffuse Lewy Body disease) or other neurodegenerative disease that might mimic the symptoms of PD. 2. Participant(s) has undergone neurosurgery for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. 3. Known hypersensitivity to levodopa, carbidopa or radiopaque material. 4. Participant(s) has contraindications to levodopa (e.g. narrow angle glaucoma, malignant melanoma). 5. Participant(s) experiencing clinically significant sleep attacks or clinically significant impulsive behavior (e.g. pathological gambling, hypersexuality) at any point during the three months prior to the Screening evaluation as judged by the Principal Investigator.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change From Baseline to Week 26 in the NMSS Total Score | Baseline, Week 26 | The NMSS consists of 30 questions in 9 domains (cardiovascular/falls, sleep/fatigue, mood/cognition, perceptual problems/hallucinations, attention/memory, GI tract, urinary, sexual function, miscellaneous). Score of each question is calculated by multiplying severity\*frequency. Severity and frequency are rated using a scale ranging from 0 (none) to 3 (severe) for severity and from 1 (rarely) to 4 (very frequent) for frequency. Total score is the sum of 9 domains, and ranges from 0 to 360, with a lower value indicating a more desirable outcome. Repeated-measure analysis. |
| Change From Baseline to Week 26 in the Modified PDSS-2 Total Score | Baseline, Week 26 | The PDSS-2 addresses PD-specific sleep disturbances such as restless leg syndrome (RLS), morning akinesia, pain, and sleep apnea. The frequency is assessed for the 15 sleep problems based on a 5-point Likert-type scale (ranging from 0 \[never\] to 4 \[very often\]). Scores are calculated for each of the 3 domains (motor symptoms at night, PD symptoms at night, and disturbed sleep) as well as a total score. The PDSS-2 domain scores range from 0 to 20 and the total score is a sum of the 3 domains and ranges from 0 to 60. Repeated measure analysis. |

Change From Baseline to Week 26 in Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ-8) Summary Index Score
The PDQ-8 is a disease-specific instrument designed to measure aspects of health relevant to PD. Eight questions including the mobility, activities of daily living, emotional well-being, stigma, social support, cognition, communication, and bodily discomfort are assessed on a 5-point scale: 0 = Never, 1 = Occasionally, 2 = Sometimes, 3 = Often, 4 = Always (or cannot do at all, if applicable). Summary index score is the sum of each question divided by 32 and multiplied by 100. Scores range from 0 to 100 with lower values desirable.
Time frame: Baseline, Week 26
Population: Intent-to-Treat Data Set: all participants who were randomized to the OMT arm, and all participants who were randomized to LCIG arm and received at least one dose of study drug.

Change From Baseline to Week 26 in the Modified PDSS-2 Domain Scores
The PDSS-2 addresses PD-specific sleep disturbances such as restless leg syndrome (RLS), morning akinesia, pain, and sleep apnea. The frequency is assessed for the 15 sleep problems based on a 5-point Likert-type scale (ranging from 0 \[never\] to 4 \[very often\]). Scores are calculated for each of the 3 domains (motor symptoms at night, PD symptoms at night, and disturbed sleep) as well as a total score. The PDSS-2 domain scores range from 0 to 20 and the total score is a sum of the 3 domains and ranges from 0 to 60. Repeated measure analysis.
Time frame: Baseline, Week 26
Population: Intent-to-Treat Data Set: all participants who were randomized to the OMT arm, and all participants who were randomized to LCIG arm and received at least one dose of study drug. Participants with baseline and a post-baseline measurement are reported in this table.

Change From Baseline to Week 26 in the NMSS Domain Scores
The NMSS consists of 30 questions in 9 domains. Score of each question is calculated by multiplying severity\*frequency. Severity and frequency are rated using a scale ranging from 0 (none) to 3 (severe) for severity and from 1 (rarely) to 4 (very frequent) for frequency. Cardiovascular/falls scores range from 0 - 24 with lower value desirable. Sleep/fatigue scores range from 0 - 48 with lower value desirable. Mood/cognition scores range from 0 - 72 with lower value desirable. Perceptual problems/hallucinations scores range from 0 - 36 with lower value desirable. Attention/memory scores range from 0 - 36 with lower value desirable. Gastrointestinal tract scores range from 0 - 36 with lower value desirable. Urinary scores range from 0 - 36 with lower value desirable. Sexual function scores range from 0 - 24 with lower value desirable. Miscellaneous scores range from 0 - 48 with lower value desirable. Repeated-measure analysis.
