Clinical Trial Summary

This study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sustained release (SR)-Exenatide (PT320, Q1W and Q2W) in the treatment of patients with early Parkinson's disease (PD).


Clinical Trial Description

This study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel comparison, phase IIa clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sustained release (SR)-Exenatide (PT320) in the treatment of patients with early Parkinson's disease (PD). Exenatide (GLP-1) has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat patients with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) and obesity. In addition, several research groups have confirmed that Exenatide has beneficial aspects due to the neuroprotective effects in neuronal cells in patients with PD. Peptron has developed a sustained-release (SR)-Exenatide, (PT320, Q1W and Q2W), which has shown a higher Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) penetration rate and better patient compliance. Thus, the objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of PT320 on symptom improvement and the inhibition of disease progression in the treatment of patients with early Parkinson's disease. Also, pharmacokinetic analysis of PT320 in blood cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and exosome analysis of biomarkers related to Exenatide will be being tested, as exploratory measurements. ;
