Clinical Trial Summary

This study will evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of DA-9701 with domperidone in patients with Parkinson's disease


Description:

To prevent nausea and vomiting induced by anti-parkinsonian drugs, prokinetic drugs are frequently prescribed in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Additionally, there has been some evidence that prokinetics might improve PD symptom fluctuations. From this background, the investigators will evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of DA-9701 in PD patients.

In this study, 40 patients will be enrolled and randomly allocated 1:1 to receive either domperidone or DA-9701. The gastric function of each study participant will be evaluated using the MRI technique before and after 4 weeks of the treatment. The study participants will also be subjected to complete the gastrointestinal symptom diary before and during the treatment period. In addition, plasma levodopa concentrations will be determined 30 minutes after dose administration before and after treatment.

Intervention

Drug:
DA-9701
Following 2-week screening period, study participants in this group will be given a standard dose of DA-9701 (30 mg t.i.d). Concomitant anti-PD medication will be continued without modification during the trial. The investigators will evaluate dyspepsia and constipation symptoms, gastric emptying by MRI, UPDRS and clinical variables at baseline and at the end of the study.
Domperidone
Following 2-week screening period, study participants in this group will be given a standard dose of domperidone (10 mg t.i.d). Concomitant anti-PD medication will be continued without modification during the trial. The investigators will evaluate dyspepsia and constipation symptoms, gastric emptying by MRI, UPDRS and clinical variables at baseline and at the end of the study.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Change of gastric motility evaluated using MRI from baseline at 4 weeks after the treatment MRI is known to be accurate and useful in evaluating gastric motility. Gastric emptying rate (GER) evaluated using MRI will be compared before and after the treatment, and between the groups. 0, 4 weeks
Secondary Patient's symptoms of dyspepsia and constipation assessed patient diary The study participants will fill up the gastrointestinal symptom diary before and during the treatment period. In addition, the investigators will assess the Patient's Global Assessment (PGA) for dyspeptic symptoms at the end of the treatment period. -1 to 4 weeks
Secondary Levodopa plasma concentration 30 minutes after the L-dopa administration Plasma levodopa concentrations will be determined 30 minutes after L-dopa dose administration before and after treatment. 0, 4 weeks
Secondary UPDRS Part III score To evaluate any deteriorations in Parkinson's disease, the investigators will assess Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) score before and after treatment in the 2 groups. 0, 4 weeks
