About this study

This trial is a late phase II, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group trial to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of KDT-3594 administered once daily in patients with advanced PD with levodopa.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients diagnosed with PD according to the Parkinson's disease society brain bank clinical diagnostic criteria of the UK Parkinson's Disease Society
  • Patients who are being treated with levodopa or levodopa combination drugs and have any of the following troublesome symptoms or conditions:
  • Patients with wearing-off phenomenon
  • Patients with ON-/OFF-phenomenon
  • Patients with no-on/delayed on phenomenon
  • Patients with inadequate response to levodopa

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients suspected of having parkinsonism other than PD based on medical history, physical findings, laboratory test values, dopamine transporter-single photon emission computed tomography (DAT-SPECT), etc.
  • Patients who have undergone neurosurgical therapy for PD (e.g., stereotactic thalamotomy and pallidotomy and deep brain stimulation) or who are scheduled to undergo surgical therapy during the trial period
  • Patients complicated with overt dementia or a Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of < 24 at the start of the screening period

Primary outcomes

  1. Change from baseline in the MDS-UPDRS Part II+III (ON-time) total score at Week 17 of the treatment period

    Time frame: Up to 17 weeks

    MDS-UPDRS is a multimodal scale assessing impairment and disability consisting of 4 parts. (Part I; 13 items) non-motor experiences of daily living, (Part II; 13 items) motor experiences of daily living completed by the participants, (Part III; 33 items) motor examination of PD and was administered by the rater, and (Part IV; 6 items) motor complication integrates participant-derived information with the rater's clinical observations and judgements and is completed by the rater. For each question, a numeric score was assigned between 0-4, where 0 = Normal, 1 = Slight, 2 = Mild, 3 = Moderate, 4 = Severe. In all parts, a higher score indicated more severe symptoms of PD, and the score range of each part are as follows.

    • Part I: 0-52
    • Part II: 0-52
    • Part III: 0-132
    • Part IV: 0-24
    • Total Score: 0-260
    • Part II+III: 0-184 (MDS-UPDRS Part II and III combined score equals the sum of Parts II and III (range 0-184)).

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change from baseline in the MDS-UPDRS Part II+III (ON-time) total score

    • Total Score: 0-260
    • Part II+III: 0-184 (MDS-UPDRS Part II and III combined score equals the sum of Parts II and III (range 0-184)).
  3. Response rate in the MDS-UPDRS Part III (ON-time) total score
