Based on the Parkinson's Disease Symptom Diary. "On" time is when PD symptoms are well controlled by the drug. "Off" time is when PD symptoms are not adequately controlled by the drug. The diary is completed every 30 minutes for the full 24 hours of each of 3 days prior to selected clinic visits. It reflects both time awake and time asleep. Daily totals are normalized to a 16-hour scale (i.e. 16 hours of awake time). The normalized totals for the 3 days prior to the visit are averaged for the analysis. Negative change from baseline for "off" time indicates improvement.
The NMSS measures the frequency and severity of a range of non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's Disease. It consists of 30 questions grouped into 9 domains: cardiovascular, sleep/fatigue, mood/cognition, perceptual problems/hallucinations, attention/memory, gastro-intestinal tract, urinary, sexual function, and miscellaneous (pain, taste/smell, weight change, excessive sweating). Severity is rated on a scale from 0 (none) to 3 (severe) and frequency is rated on a scale from 1 (rarely) to 4 (very frequent). Item scores are calculated as the product of severity and frequency; the total score is obtained by summing the item scores. The NMSS total score ranges from 0 to 360 with a lower score indicating fewer symptoms; a negative change from baseline indicates improvement in symptoms.

Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) are defined as adverse events (AEs) which started on or after the date of the first LCIG Infusion in this study and within 30 days of the date of the last PEG-J exposure. At least possibly drug-related is defined as TEAEs assessed as having a "Possible" or "Probable" or missing relationship to study drug. Serious AEs included any untoward medical occurrence that: * Resulted in death * Was life-threatening * Required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of an existing hospitalization * Resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity * was a congenital anomaly/birth defect The severity of all AEs was characterized as mild, moderate or severe according to the following definitions: * Mild: usually transient and do not interfere with daily activities. * Moderate: low level of inconvenience or concern to the subject, may interfere with daily activities. * Severe: events interrupt the subject's usual daily activity.
AE=any untoward medical occurrence which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. SAE=any untoward medical occurrence that: results in death; is life-threatening (an event in which the subject was at risk of death at the time of the event); requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of an existing hospitalization; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; is a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or other important medical events. Treatment-emergent events (TEAE or TESAE)=those starting after the first dose of study drug. Severe=severity reported as 'severe' or missing. Possibly or Probably Treatment Related=drug-event relationship reported as 'possible', 'probable' or missing. Death=a fatal outcome of an SAE or AE.

Terms abbreviated in the table include supine systolic blood pressure (SuSBP), standing systolic blood pressure (StSBP), orthostatic systolic blood pressure (OSBP), supine diastolic blood pressure (SuDBP), standing diastolic blood pressure (StDBP), orthostatic diastolic blood pressure (ODBP), supine pulse (SuP) in beats per minute (bpm), standing pulse (StP), and body temperature (Temp). Increase and decrease are signified by ↑ and ↓, respectively.
Terms abbreviated in the table include heart rate (HR) in beats per minute (bpm), PR interval (PRI), QT interval corrected for heart rate using Bazett's formula (QTcB), and QT interval corrected for heart rate using Fridericia's formula (QTcF). Increase and decrease are signified by ↑ and ↓, respectively.
To prospectively monitor for the possible development of sleep attacks, participants were asked if they had experienced any events in which they fell asleep suddenly or unexpectedly, including while engaged in some activity (e.g., eating/drinking, speaking, or driving) or at rest, with or without any previous warning of sleepiness. Those participants who reported 1 or more sleep attacks were asked to report the number of sleep attacks they experienced, whether they experienced sleepiness or drowsiness prior to the sleep attack, whether they experienced a 'bad' outcome or problem due to a sleep attack, and if so, how many 'bad' outcomes or problems they experienced.

The MIDI is a validated assessment of impulsive behavior consisting of a semistructured clinical interview assessing pathological gambling, trichotillomania (compulsive hair-pulling), kleptomania (compulsive stealing), pyromania (compulsive fire setting), intermittent explosive disorder, compulsive buying, and compulsive sexual behavior.
The AIMS is an investigator-completed rating scale that has a total of 12 items rating involuntary movements of various areas of the participant's body. Items 1 through 10 are rated on a 5-point scale of severity from 0 (none), 1 (minimal), 2 (mild), 3 (moderate), to 4 (severe), and items 11 and 12 are yes/no questions regarding issues with teeth or dentures. The total AIMS score was calculated by summing items 1-10, with a possible range of 0-40; a negative change indicates improvement. The AIMS was to be performed at consistent times, when the subject was experiencing his/her worst "On" time (dyskinesia \[involuntary muscle movement\]).
A comprehensive assessment for the presence of melanoma was performed during the screening period and at early termination or end of study by a dermatologist experienced with the diagnosis of the condition. If a suspicious lesion was present, a biopsy was obtained for proper diagnosis.
Concomitant medications include those started on or after the first open-label LCIG infusion as well as medications started prior to the first open-label infusion but continued during the study.

| Levodopa-Carbidopa Intestinal Gel (LCIG) | EXPERIMENTAL | All participants received LCIG via the N-J tube during the nasojejunal (N-J) Test Period and delivered to the proximal small intestine via percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy - with jejunal extension tube (PEG-J) during the Post-PEG-J Long-Term Treatment Period. The starting dose was individually determined based on the daily dose of oral levodopa prior to study enrollment. The infusion dose was individually optimized for each participant on the basis of response and potential adverse events. During the PEG-J Period, LCIG was expected to be infused continuously over approximately 16 hours daily with a rate of infusion ranging from 1 to 10 mL/hour (20 to 200 mg of levodopa/hour). |
| Levodopa-Carbidopa Intestinal Gel | EXPERIMENTAL | Participants had the PEG-J tube placement procedure performed on Study Day 1 and, at the discretion of the investigator, began initiation and titration of LCIG infusion. Dosing was determined individually. The starting total daily dose of LCIG was based solely on the daily dose of the oral levodopa taken immediately prior to Study Day 1 and was adjusted to obtain the optimal clinical response for the individual participant. Participants received treatment for up to 60 weeks; participants who completed their Week 60 visit before LCIG was commercially available had the option to extend their LCIG therapy, if in the opinion of the investigator, the participant would benefit from continued LCIG treatment. |
| Levodopa-Carbidopa Intestinal Gel (LCIG) + Placebo Capsules | EXPERIMENTAL | Participants were randomized to LCIG (levodopa, 20 mg/mL and carbidopa monohydrate, 5 mg/mL) and placebo capsules. Participants received the percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy with jejunal extension (PEG-J) procedure for gel administration of LCIG. |
| Placebo Gel + Levodopa-Carbidopa Capsules | ACTIVE_COMPARATOR | Participants were randomized to placebo intestinal gel and oral levodopa-carbidopa (levodopa, 100 mg and carbidopa, 25 mg) Immediate Release (IR) capsules. Participants received the percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy with jejunal extension (PEG-J) procedure for gel administration of placebo. |
