Long Term Study of Istradefylline in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Parkinson's Disease

This is a Phase 3, 52-week, open-label, flexible-dose, multinational, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of istradefylline 20 or 40 mg/d in subjects with moderate to severe PD with motor fluctuations and dyskinesia on levodopa combination (levodopa/carbidopa or levodopa/benserazide) therapy plus at least one adjunctive PD medication. Subjects who completed 12 weeks of double-blind treatment and the 30-day follow-up period in Study No. 6002-014 will undergo Screening and Baseline evaluations for eligibility for the study. Eligible subjects will be treated with istradefylline at a starting dose of 20 mg/d with an option for a dose adjustment to 40 mg/d at Week 12 based on the Investigator's judgment of each subject's response and tolerability. If deemed necessary, one unscheduled dose adjustment visit between Week 2 to Week 12 is allowed in accordance with clinical judgment of the Investigator. Subjects who had a dose adjustment to 40 mg/d can have their dose decreased to 20 mg/d by the Investigator at a second unscheduled dose adjustment visit if there are tolerability issues. The istradefylline dose should remain fixed between Week 26 to Week 52. Consultation with the Sponsor's Medical Monitor is required prior to any unscheduled dose adjustment visits. A subject may discontinue from the study at any time.

Treatment and study plan

Istradefylline 20 mg or 40 mg

Drug

Istradefylline 20 or 40 mg

Other names: KW-6002

Primary outcomes

  1. Evaluation of the Long-term Safety and Tolerability of Oral Istradefylline (20mg or 40mg/Day [mg/d])

    Time frame: From screening through to study completion, an average of 52 weeks

    The number of subjects experiencing an adverse event as well as clinical laboratory tests (chemistry, haematology and urinalysis) were collected to evaluate the safety profile of istradefylline (20mg or 40mg/day [mg/d]).

Secondary outcomes

  1. Patient Global Impression - Overall Condition (Improvement by Study Visit) (ITT Analysis Set).

    Time frame: From baseline through to study completion at week 52, plus 30 days post last dose

    The number and percentage of subjects showing improvement (moderate or mild) on PGI-I scores with Istradefylline 20 mg or 40 mg. Each subjects 'key symptom' (the symptom they had most trouble with) on the PGI-I was identified and evaluated at baseline and at Week 12, 26 and 52. In addition, the subject's overall condition and symptoms of fatigue, sleep and motivation to get things done were also evaluated at week 12, 26 and 52. Subjects rated each on a scale 1 to 5 for change from baseline status utilizing the following scale: 1= Moderate improvement (or greater) 2= Mild improvement, 3= No change from baseline, 4 = Mild deterioration, 5= Moderate deterioration (or greater).
