Relative Bioavailability Study of Ropinirole Implants in Parkinson's Patients on L-Dopa Switched From Oral Ropinirole

April 10, 2023 updated by: Titan Pharmaceuticals

An Open-Label, Relative Bioavailability Study Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Ropinirole Implants in Patients With Parkinson's Disease Switched From Oral Immediate-Release Ropinirole While on L-Dopa

Subjects stable on L-Dopa and oral ropinirole will have their ropinirole replaced with the Ropinirole Implant(s). The Ropinirole Implant was designed using the ProNeura™ implant technology where the implant is inserted under the skin. This study will measure how much ropinirole is released in the blood during 12 weeks of ropinirole implant treatment, and evaluate the side effects of this new formulation.

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

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
Measure Description

AUC0-24 Hours of Ropinirole
Time Frame: 0-24 hours
Area under the plasma drug concentration-time curve of ropinirole

Total Number of Adverse Events Across Participants
Time Frame: 0-12 weeks
Safety and tolerability of ropinirole implant(s) presented as the total number of adverse events experienced by the analysis population.
0-12 weeks

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.

Mean Change From Baseline in MDS-UPDRS Total Score
Time Frame: Baseline and Weeks 4, 8 and 12
Efficacy of ropinirole implants presented as the mean change from baseline in MDS-UPDRS total score. Movement Disorder Society-Sponsored Revision of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Scale [MDS-UPDRS] is a questionnaire and examination rating motor and non-motor experiences, and motor complications. Score is summed to range from 0 to 272. Higher score indicates more severe symptoms/outcome.
Baseline and Weeks 4, 8 and 12
Mean Change From Baseline of Awake Time "On"
Time Frame: Baseline and Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12
Efficacy of ropinirole implants presented as mean change from baseline of awake time "on". Diaries were completed for 2 consecutive days prior to the visit, used to record motor state in half-hour intervals over a 24-hour period (during waking hours). "On" refers to when medication is providing benefit with regard to mobility, slowness and stiffness, regardless of dyskinesia. Daily totals for waking hours were normalized to a 16-hour waking day and averaged across the 2 days.
Baseline and Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12
Mean Change From Baseline of Awake Time "Off"
Time Frame: Baseline and Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12
Efficacy of ropinirole implants presented as mean change from baseline of awake time "Off". Diaries were completed for 2 consecutive days prior to the visit, used to record motor state in half-hour intervals over a 24-hour period (during waking hours). "Off" refers to when medication has worn off and is no longer providing benefit with regard to mobility, slowness and stiffness. Daily totals for waking hours were normalized to a 16-hour waking day and averaged across the 2 days
