BOOST-PD - Better On-time Observations of Motor Fluctuations Using Wearable Sensor Technology: A Naturalistic Study on IPX-203 for Parkinson's Disease
The Cleveland Clinic
Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of IPX203 (Crexont®) - the newest extended-release levodopa formulation - on the duration and quality of good on time, using a wearable device to monitor symptoms. 'Good on time' refers to a period (minutes to hours) when a patient experiences optimal symptom control due to effective medication and has better overall functioning without troublesome dyskinesias. The change in the duration and quality of on-time will be measured by a wearable device placed on your wrist called KinesiaU.
Description
This research is being done because a new, longer-duration formulation of levodopa named IPX203 (brand name: Crexont®) has been recently approved by the FDA. The pivotal study on this drug demonstrated that IPX203 significantly increased the daily good on-time compared to immediate release carbidopa-levodopa (IR CD-LD), where good on-time is the time when the Parkinson's symptoms are improved without troublesome dyskinesias. In that study, the participants were taking IPX203 a mean of 3 times per day which still left a mean of 4.18 hours of off-time per day (when symptoms returned). These data…
