Comparison of the pharmacokinetics of an oral extended‐release capsule formulation of carbidopa‐levodopa (IPX066) with immediate‐release carbidopa‐levodopa (Sinemet ® ), sustained‐release carbidopa‐levodopa (Sinemet ® CR), and carbidopa‐levodopa‐entacapone (Stalevo ® )

Popis: IPX066 (extended-release carbidopa-levodopa [ER CD-LD]) is an oral extended-release capsule formulation of carbidopa and levodopa. The single-dose pharmacokinetics of ER CD-LD (as 2 capsules; total dose, 97.5 mg-390 mg CD-LD) versus immediate-release (IR) CD-LD (25 mg-100 mg), sustained-release (CR) CD-LD (25 mg-100 mg), and CD-LD-entacapone (25 mg-100 mg-200 mg) was evaluated in healthy subjects. Following IR dosing, LD reached peak concentrations (Cmax) at 1 hour; LD concentrations then decreased rapidly and were less than 10% of peak by 5 hours. With CR CD-LD and CD-LD-entacapone, LD Cmax occurred at 1.5 hours, and concentrations were less than 10% of peak by 6.3 and 7.5 hours, respectively. The initial increase in LD concentration was similar between ER CD-LD and IR CD-LD and faster than for CR CD-LD and CD-LD-entacapone. LD concentrations from ER CD­­-LD were sustained for approximately 5 hours and did not decrease to 10% of peak until 10.1 hours. Dose-normalized LD Cmax values for ER CD-LD were significantly lower (P< .05) than for the other CD-LD products. Bioavailability of LD from ER CD-LD was 83.5%, 78.3%, and 58.8% relative to IR CD-LD, CR CD-LD, and CD-LD-entacapone, respectively.
