Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Least Squares Mean Dyskinesia Severity Area Under the Curve (AUC) Score As Assessed By Modified Movement Disorder Society-Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (MDS-UDysRS) Part 3
The MDS-UDysRS was developed to evaluate involuntary movements often associated with treated Parkinson's disease (PD). Levodopa-Induced Dyskinesia severity was assessed via video analysis by unbiased blinded central raters, and was calculated using the Intensity Scale from Part 3 of the MDS-UDysRS. The Intensity Scale was made up of seven body parts: face, neck, right arm/shoulder, left arm/shoulder, trunk, right leg/hip, and left leg/hip. Each body part was scored on a variety of disability items (communication, drinking, and ambulation \[walking\]) on a scale of 0 (normal) to 4 (incapacitating dyskinesia) with a maximum total score of 28. For each body part, the highest disability score was summed to calculate the intensity score. A score of '0' was assigned to questions associated with the dressing task which were not performed due to the placement of the treatment infusion (IV) line. A higher score indicated more severe symptoms.
Over the 2-hour levodopa infusion period on the last day of each treatment period (Day 14 and Day 42)
Secondary Outcomes (10)
Least Squares Mean Disability Area Under the Curve (AUC) Score As Assessed By Modified Movement Disorder Society-Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (MDS-UDysRS) Part 4
Over the 2-hour levodopa infusion period on the last day of each treatment period (Day 14 and Day 42)
Least Squares Mean Motor Movement Area Under the Curve Score As Assessed by Modified Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS), Part III
Over the 2-hour levodopa infusion period on the last day of each treatment period (Day 14 and Day 42)
Least Squares Mean Timed Finger Tapping Area Under the Curve (AUC) Score
Over the 2-hour levodopa infusion period on the last day of each treatment period (Day 14 and Day 42)

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Males and females 30 to 80 years of age, inclusive.
- Diagnosis of idiopathic PD meeting the United Kingdom Parkinson's disease Society Brain Bank criteria.
- Levodopa-induced dyskinesia present greater than 25% of the day as per MDS-UPDRS.
- Dyskinesia of at least moderate severity as per MDS-UPDRS
- Amantadine and Monoamine Oxidase (MAO) inhibitors must be discontinued at least three weeks prior to randomization.
- Subjects currently receiving anti-parkinsonian medications, including all Levodopa preparations are eligible provided they have been on a stable dose of these medications for at least 1 month prior to randomization.
- Concomitant use of antidepressants such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are allowed, provided the dose has been stable for at least 1 month prior to randomization.
You may not qualify if:
- Subject had a prior surgery for PD except Deep Brain Stimulation (Deep Brain Stimulation must not have been performed within one year of screening)
- Hoehn and Yahr score of 5 when "off".
- Subject with Cognitive impairment and/or history of psychiatric manifestations or active hallucinations.
- Subjects with any history of complete heart block, QTc prolongation, or torsades de pointes.
- Subjects with any family history of congenital QT interval prolongation syndrome.
- Subjects with history of postural syncope, or any history of unexplained syncope within the last 12 months.
- Subjects with a history of substance and/or alcohol abuse within the past 2 years.
