Official title
A Prospective, Non-Interventional Study on the Long-term Effectiveness of Levodopa-Entacapone-Carbidopa Intestinal Gel (LECIGON®) in Patients With Parkinson's Disease Previously Treated With Subcutaneous Foslevodopa in Routine Care
Overview
The primary objective of the study is to assess the effectiveness of LECIGON® treatment on the reduction in OFF time (h/day) from baseline at 12 months as measured by Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale, Part IV (MDS-UPDRS IV).
Interventions
- Other No Intervention
This is a non-interventional study.
Primary outcome measures
- Change from Baseline in the Reduction in OFF time (h/day) as Measured by Movement Disorder Society-unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale, Part IV (MDS-UPDRS IV) at 12 months [Time frame: Baseline, Month 12]
Secondary outcome measures (12)
- Change from Baseline in the Reduction in OFF time (h/day) as Measured by MDS-UPDRS IV at 6 months [Time frame: Baseline, Month 6]
- Change from Baseline in the Reduction in OFF time (h/day) as Measured by Hauser Patient Diaries [Time frame: Baseline, Months 6 and 12]
- Change from Baseline in LECIGON® Treatment Patterns due to Change in Daily Levodopa Dose (mg/day) as Measured by Total Daily Dose Using Multi-rate Programming of Pump [Time frame: Baseline, Months 6 and 12]
- Change from Baseline in Clinical Global Impression of Improvement as Measured by Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C) [Time frame: Baseline, Months 6 and 12]
- Change from Baseline in Clinical Global Impression of Improvement as Measured by Patient Global Impression of Change (PGI-C) at 12 months [Time frame: Baseline, Months 6 and 12]
- Change from Baseline in Non-motor Experiences of Daily Living as Measured by MDS-UPDRS-I [Time frame: Baseline, Months 6 and 12]
- Change from Baseline in Motor Complications as Measured by MDS-UPDRS-IV [Time frame: Baseline, Months 6 and 12]
- Change from Baseline in Quality of Life as Measured by Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire Total Score (PDQ-8) [Time frame: Baseline, Months 6 and 12]
- Change from Baseline in Sleep as Measured by Parkinson's Disease Sleep Scale - 2 (PDSS-2) [Time frame: Baseline, Months 6 and 12]
- Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire at Months 6 and 12 [Time frame: At Months 6 and 12]
- Change from Baseline in Body Mass Index (BMI) [Time frame: Baseline, Months 6 and 12]
- Number of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs), Serious ADRs, Reportable Events (REs), Serious REs and REs of Special Interest (RESIs) [Time frame: 12 months]
