AbbVie
Summary
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurological condition, which affects the brain. PD gets worse over time, but how quickly it progresses varies a lot from person to person. Some symptoms of PD are tremors, stiffness, and slowness of movement. This study will assess how effective Foslevodopa/Foscarbidopa is in treating adult participants earlier within advanced Parkinson disease under routine clinical practice. Foslevodopa/Foscarbidopa is an approved drug for the treatment of Parkinson's Disease. Approximately 100 adult participants who are prescribed Foslevodopa/Foscarbidopa by their doctors will be enrolled across approximately 40 sites across the world. Participants will receive Foslevodopa/Foscarbidopa subcutaneous infusion as prescribed by their physician. Participants will be followed for up to 6 months. There are no additional examinations due to the study but the participants and caregivers will need to fill several questionnaires to generate data on their motor function and well-being
