Twelve Month Safety and Efficacy Study of CVT-301 In Parkinson's Disease Patients With OFF Episodes

Overview

About this study

This study is a 12-month, dose-level blinded, multicenter study of 2 inhaled dose levels of CVT-301 for the treatment of up to 5 OFF episodes per day in PD patients experiencing motor fluctuations (OFF episodes). All patients will receive active treatment, but patients will be blinded to dose level. This will serve as an extension to the CVT-301-004 study for those patients who participated in that study and remain eligible for this study. In addition, patients who previously completed the CVT-301-003 study as well as additional CVT-301 naïve patients may be enrolled if they meet the CVT-301-004E eligibility criteria.

Participation eligibility

Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate. There is no guarantee that every individual who qualifies and wants to participate in a trial will be enrolled. Contact the study team to discuss study eligibility and potential participation.
