Brief summary

A study that compares the extent to which apomorphine becomes available in the body after taking either an investigational drug containing apomorphine or apomorphine that is injected under the skin in people with PD complicated by OFF episodes.

Detailed description

This multi-center study will aim to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and comparative bioavailability of a single dose of APL-130277 sublingual thin film with subcutaneous (s.c.) APO-go® and s.c. APOKYN® in subjects with Parkinson's disease (PD). The dose of APOKYN® (≤ 5 mg) will be based on the subjects' current prescribed dose. The study is designed as an open-label, randomized, three-way crossover. Subjects will receive all three treatment arms with a minimum 1-day wash-out between each visit (excluding the screening visit) and will be randomly assigned to one of the six sequences

Inclusion criteria

1. Male or female ≥ 18 years of age. 2. Clinical diagnosis of Idiopathic PD, consistent with UK Brain Bank Criteria (excluding the more than one affected relative criterion). 3. Clinically meaningful response to Levodopa (L-Dopa) with well-defined OFF episodes, as determined by the Investigator. 4. Receiving APOKYN® of ≤ 5 mg per dose for at least 4 weeks before the Screening Visit. 5. Receiving stable doses of L-Dopa/carbidopa (immediate or sustained release) administered at least 4 times per day OR Rytary™ administered 3 times per day, for at least 4 weeks before the Screening Visit. Adjunctive PD medication regimens must be maintained at a stable dose for at least 4 weeks prior to the Screening Visit with the exception that MAOB inhibitors must be maintained at a stable level for at least 8 weeks prior to the Screening Visit. 6. No planned medication change(s) or surgical intervention anticipated during the course of study. 7. Patients must experience a well-defined OFF episode in the morning if they do not take their morning PD medications on schedule, and must be willing to delay morning doses on the 3 study dosing days 8. Stage III or less on the modified Hoehn and Yahr scale in the ON state. 9. Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score \> 23. 10. If female and of childbearing potential, must agree to use one of the following methods of birth control: * Oral contraceptive; * Contraceptive patch; * Barrier (diaphragm, sponge or condom) plus spermicidal preparations; * Intrauterine contraceptive system; * Levonorgestrel implant; * Medroxyprogesterone acetate contraceptive injection; * Complete abstinence from sexual intercourse; * Hormonal vaginal contraceptive ring; or * Surgical sterilization or partner sterile (must have documented proof). 11. Male patients must be either surgically sterile, agree to be sexually abstinent or use a barrier method of birth control (e.g., condom) or maintain a monogamous relationship with a person who is not of child-bearing potential from first study drug administration until 30days after final drug administration. 12. Willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other study-related procedures to complete the study. 13.

Observed Time of the Maximum Concentration (Tmax)

Time from dosing to Cmax, observed by inspection of individual subject plots of plasma concentration versus time.

Time frame: Day 1

Population: Tmax summary statistics were summarized by dose levels and the inferential statistics was done across all dose levels.

Terminal-phase Rate Constant ( λz)

Apparent terminal elimination rate constant, determined by log linear regression of the plasma concentration versus time data that was judged to be in the log-linear elimination phase. At least 3 data points in the terminal phase will be used in the determination of the rate constant.

Time frame: Day 1
