Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Time to first qualifying worsening event on Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Part II

    To evaluate the efficacy of BHV-8000 compared to placebo. This objective is measured by assessing the time to prespecified worsening on MDS-UPDRS Part II (motor experiences of daily living per self-administered questionnaire). MDS-UPDRS Part II is a 52-point scale with a higher total score representing more severe disability.

    Up to 48 Weeks

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Change in Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Part III from Baseline to Week 48

    Baseline to Week 48

  • Change in Clinical Global Impression of Severity (CGI-S) from Baseline to Week 48

    Baseline to Week 48

  • Change in DaT-SPECT scan from Baseline to Week 48

    Baseline to Week 48

  • Change in Parkinson's Disease Composite Score - Function (PARCOMS-Function) from Baseline to Week 48

    Baseline to Week 48

  • Number of Participants with Deaths, Serious AEs (SAEs), AEs Leading to Study Drug Discontinuation, and moderate or severe AEs

    Baseline to Week 48

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age40 Years - 85 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Male or female participants 40 to 85 years of age, inclusive, at the time of informed consent.
  • Meet the diagnostic criteria for "Probable PD" as assessed on the Movement Disorder Society (MDS) Clinical Diagnostic Criteria for PD as assessed by the Investigator.
  • Have a clinician-documented diagnosis of idiopathic PD with an onset within 2 years of the Screening Visit

You may not qualify if:

  • Medical history indicating a Parkinsonian syndrome other than idiopathic PD, including, but not limited to, progressive supranuclear gaze palsy, multiple system atrophy, drug-induced Parkinsonism, essential tremor, or primary dystonia.
  • Diagnosis of clinically significant central nervous system (CNS) disease other than PD.
  • Participants who are current smokers (defined as smoking \[in any form, e.g., tobacco smoke, electronic cigarettes, etc.\] )
