Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of IPX054 in Subjects With Parkinson's Disease

October 25, 2019 updated by: Impax Laboratories, LLC

An Open-Label Study to Assess the Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of IPX054 in Subjects With Parkinson's Disease

The objective is to compare the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of IPX054 and carbidopa-levodopa immediate-release tablets in subjects with idiopathic Parkinson's disease who are currently being treated with a stable regimen of carbidopa-levodopa immediate-release tablets.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

IPX054 contains two different drugs called levodopa and carbidopa in one tablet.

  • levodopa turns into a material called 'dopamine' in your brain. The dopamine helps to improve the symptoms of your Parkinson's disease.
  • carbidopa belongs to a group of medicines called 'aromatic amino acid decarboxylase inhibitors'. It helps levodopa work more effectively by slowing the speed at which levodopa is broken down in your body.
