Brief Summary

To evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of AVP-923 capsules containing 45 mg dextromethorphan and 10 mg quinidine (AVP-923-45) compared to placebo for the treatment of levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD).

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)

  • Change From Baseline in MDS-UPDRS Scores for Part I, II, and IV

    Baseline (Day 1); Post-Baseline (Day 14 or 42)

  • Change From Baseline in MDS-UDysRS Scores for Part 1 and 2

    Baseline (Day 1); Post-Baseline (Day 14 or 42)

  • +5 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

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)

  • 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.
