Popis: | BACKGROUND There are limited data regarding the effectiveness of levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG) for dyskinesia. OBJECTIVE Compare the effectiveness of LCIG versus oral optimized medical treatment (OMT) for dyskinesia in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) using the Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (UDysRS). METHODS This phase 3b, open-label, multicenter, 12-week, interventional study (NCT02799381) randomized 63 LCIG naive patients with advanced PD (UDysRS ≥30) to LCIG (N = 30) or OMT (N = 33) treatment. Dyskinesia impact was assessed at baseline through week 12 using the UDysRS. PD-related motor and non-motor symptoms, and quality of life (QoL) were also assessed. RESULTS Dyskinesias measured by UDysRS were significantly reduced in the LCIG group (n = 24; -17.37 ± 2.79) compared with the OMT group (n = 26; -2.33 ± 2.56) after 12 weeks (-15.05 ± 3.20; 95% CI, -21.47 to -8.63; P |
