Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Anticipated)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
72

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

  • Subjects between the ages of 18 and 75 years of age inclusive;
  • For early patients only: Subject with Parkinson's disease with a stable response to Levodopa (not suffering from "wearing off") and currently treated with IR-Carbidopa/Levodopa containing 300-500mg Levodopa per day up to 4 doses per day.
  • For group 3 only: Subject with Parkinson's disease experiencing predictable motor fluctuations, end of dose "wearing off", defined by the patient's report of at least two episodes daily of a decline in function from peak benefit, with at least 2-3 hours OFF a day at the discretion of the PI (does not include early morning akinesia). Only patients with end of dose wearing off for at least 3 months will be included.
  • For moderate patients only: patients who are currently treated with IR-Carbidopa/Levodopa containing 600-900mg Levodopa, in divided dose, per day.
  • Subject has been stable at current CD/LD dose for at least 1 months
  • Hoehn and Yahr stages I-III
  • If subject is taking dopamine agonists, the dose has been stable for at least 1 month
  • Other then Parkinson's disease, the subject is in satisfactory health, as assessed by physical examination, blood test (biochemistry and hematology). No abnormality on clinical examination and blood tests that in the opinion of the Physician responsible will compromise safety or interfere with study procedures.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects who have participated in another clinical trial within the last 30 days;
  • Subjects with atypical Parkinsonism
  • Subject has significant history of cardiac, pulmonary, hepatic or renal disease or other condition or any major complication/illness which, in the opinion of the physician responsible, contraindicates his/her participation.
  • Subject with symptomatic gastroparesis with frequent vomiting (at least once a week).
  • Subjects with a history of clinically defined GERD, peptic ulcer or any gastrointestinal surgery other than appendectomy or herniotomy, or with any gastrointestinal disorder likely to influence drug absorption, or with any history of inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome, severe gastrointestinal narrowing, or frequent nausea or emesis, regardless of etiology.
  • Prior gastro-intestinal surgery or current gastrointestinal conditions of clinical significance including ulcers, diarrhea, vomiting, bleeding, intestinal obstruction or inflammatory bowel disease, which, in the opinion of the physician responsible, contraindicates his/her participation.
  • History of drug or alcohol abuse.
  • Subject has a history of allergy to any component of the dosage form or any other allergy, which, in the opinion of the physician responsible, contraindicates his/her participation.
  • Subjects suffering from psychological disorders that in the opinion of the physician responsible may interfere with full participation.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
To evaluate blood level profiles and safety of the AP09004

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Efficacy of AP09004 on motor scores in Parkinson's patients

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure.
