Abstract

Background: In the phase 3, active-controlled BouNDless study (NCT04006210), investigational ND0612 (24-hour subcutaneous levodopa/carbidopa infusion) demonstrated superiority in reducing motor fluctuations and improving motor experiences of daily living (m-EDL; MDS-UPDRS Part II), compared to oral immediate-release levodopa/carbidopa (IR-LD/CD). Our aim was to use the MDS-UPDRS to evaluate the efficacy of ND0612 in improving motor signs of PD and m-EDL. Methods: In the present study, we evaluated MDS-UPDRS Part II and Part III (at OFF-state) subscores at the time of ND0612 initiation (ie, start of open-label ND0612 treatment) and at Weeks 8 and 12 of the double-blind double-dummy maintenance period. Descriptive analyses of changes from start of ND0612 treatment to each double-blind visit are presented here. Additionally, we performed a post hoc analysis with grouped symptom-related items (from Parts II and III) for several parameters, including tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia, postural instability-gait disorder (PIGD), speech and oral health, and self-care, using a Mixed Model for Repeated Measures. P values are displayed nominally with no adjustment. Results: Mean [95%CI] treatment differences (ND0612 vs IR-LD/CD) in Part II subscores were –2.4 [–3.5, –1.3] at Week 8 and –3.1 [–4.3, –1.8] at Week 12. Similarly, treatment differences in Part III subscores favored ND0612 treatment and were –4.2 [–6.7, –1.7] at Week 8 and –2.4 [–5.2, 0.4] at Week 12. Additionally, we observed differences favoring ND0612 vs IR-LD/CD for the following parameters: PIGD (–0.26 vs 0.02, p=0.0012), speech and oral health (–0.11 vs 0.05, p=0.0140), tremor (–0.15 vs –0.05, p=0.0992), and self-care (–0.08 vs 0.09, p=0.0528). No relevant differences were observed for rigidity and bradykinesia. Conclusions: In addition to reducing motor fluctuations, these results provide further evidence supporting the clinical benefit of ND0612 therapy across different symptom domains of MDS-UPDRS II and III.
