Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Steady state plasma concentration - levodopa
For each treatment visit: Pre-dose, t=15 min, t=30 min, t=1h, t=1.5h, t=2h, t=2.5h, t=3h, t=3.5h, t=4h, t=5h, t=6h, t=7h, t=8h, t=10h, t=12h, t=14h, t=16h, t=16.5h, t=17h, t=17.5h, t=18h, t=23h, and t=24h from infusion start.

To demonstrate that Infudopa i.v. and s.c. yield steady state plasma concentration of levodopa that is equivalent with that of Duodopa.

Area under plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) - levodopa
For each treatment visit: Pre-dose, t=15 min, t=30 min, t=1h, t=1.5h, t=2h, t=2.5h, t=3h, t=3.5h, t=4h, t=5h, t=6h, t=7h, t=8h, t=10h, t=12h, t=14h, t=16h, t=16.5h, t=17h, t=17.5h, t=18h, t=23h, and t=24h from infusion start.

AUC of levodopa plasma concentrations during the dosage interval with Infudopa i.v. and s.c. will be compared to Duodopa.

Coefficient of variation (COV) for plasma levodopa concentrations
For each treatment visit: Pre-dose, t=15 min, t=30 min, t=1h, t=1.5h, t=2h, t=2.5h, t=3h, t=3.5h, t=4h, t=5h, t=6h, t=7h, t=8h, t=10h, t=12h, t=14h, t=16h, t=16.5h, t=17h, t=17.5h, t=18h, t=23h, and t=24h from infusion start.

COV for plasma levodopa concentrations during the dosage interval with Infudopa i.v. and s.c. will be compared to Duodopa.

Secondary Endpoints
Local skin tolerability to the investigated products, Draize score
For each treatment visit - Baseline: Day -1; Post infusion: t=24h, day 30±5 (only s.c. infusion), 30+/-5 days after last treatment visit.
Local skin tolerability to the investigated products, subjective symptom ratings
For each treatment visit: Day 1 during infusion: t=2h, t=8h, t=16h after infusion start; Day 2 post infusion: t=24h after infusion start, day 30±5 (only s.c. infusion), 30+/-5 days after last treatment visit.
Bioavailability - levodopa
For each treatment visit: Pre-dose, t=15 min, t=30 min, t=1h, t=1.5h, t=2h, t=2.5h, t=3h, t=3.5h, t=4h, t=5h, t=6h, t=7h, t=8h, t=10h, t=12h, t=14h, t=16h, t=16.5h, t=17h, t=17.5h, t=18h, t=23h, and t=24h from infusion start.

ArmTypeDescription
Infudopa i.v.EXPERIMENTALInfudopa i.v. in 75% of the subject's individual pre-study dosing of Duodopa will be delivered over a 16-h period, administered as a morning rapid i.v. constant rate administration followed by continuous i.v. infusion. From patient 6 and onwards: Infudopa i.v. in 81% of the subject's individual pre-study dosing of Duodopa will be delivered over a 16-h period, administered as a morning rapid i.v. constant rate administration followed by continuous i.v. infusion.
Infudopa s.c.EXPERIMENTALInfudopa s.c. in the same dosage as the subject's individual pre-study dosing of Duodopa will be delivered over a 16-h period, administered as a morning rapid s.c. constant rate administration followed by continuous s.c. infusion. From patient 6 and onwards: Infudopa s.c. in 86% of the subject's individual pre-study dosing of Duodopa will be delivered over a 16-h period, administered as a morning rapid s.c. constant rate administration followed by continuous s.c. infusion.
LCIG (Duodopa)ACTIVE_COMPARATORIndividually optimized dosing of LCIG (Duodopa) (delivered directly to the proximal small intestine via a percutaneous endoscopic gastrojejunostomy (PEG-J) tube connected to a portable infusion pump) will be delivered over a 16-h period, administered as a morning rapid constant rate administration followed by continuous infusion.
Interventions
NameTypeDescription
Infudopa i.v.DRUGInfudopa i.v. infusion will be given through an indwelling catheter placed in the arm. Infudopa i.v. will be delivered in 75% of the subject's individual pre-study dosing of Duodopa. From patient 6 and onwards: Infudopa IntraV, at 81% of the subject's individual pre-study daily Duodopa dose, will be delivered over a 16-h period and administered as a continuous fixed infusion rate preceded by a morning bolus dose. The i.v. morning bolus is 110% of the hourly continuous dose delivered at the rate of 60 ml/h (mixed volume rate Infudopa Active + Infudopa Buffer IntraV). The morning dose will not exceed 24 mL, corresponding to 240 mg levodopa. The maximum daily dose levodopa during i.v. administration is not allowed to exceed 3240mg (equal to 81% of the maximum allowed daily dosage for Duodopa that is 4000 mg).
Infudopa s.c.DRUGA suitable infusion needle will be placed laterally on the abdomen for the s.c. infusion of Infudopa. Infudopa s.c. will be delivered in the same dosage as the subject's individual pre-study dosing of Duodopa, as a morning rapid s.c. constant rate administration followed by continuous s.c. infusion up to 16 h. From patient 6 and onwards: Two infusion needles will be placed on the abdomen for the s.c. infusion of Infudopa SubC in 86% of the the subject's individual pre-study daily Duodopa dose. The intervention is given as a continuous fixed infusion rate for 16h preceded by a morning bolus dose. The s.c. morning bolus is 155% of the hourly continuous dose delivered at the rate of 80 ml/h (mixed volume rate Infudopa Active + Infudopa Buffer SubC). The morning dose will not exceed 30 mL. The maximum daily dose levodopa during s.c. administration is not allowed to exceed 3440mg (equal to 86% of the maximum allowed daily dosage for Duodopa that is 4000 mg).
LCIG (Duodopa)DRUGDuodopa will be administered directly to the proximal small intestine via a PEG-J tube connected to a portable infusion pump. Individually optimized dosing of Duodopa will be administered as a morning rapid constant rate administration followed by continuous infusion and, if needed, intermittent extra doses (subject-initiated based on symptom experience). The maximum daily dose levodopa during Duodopa administration should normally not exceed 3350 mg, and is not allowed to exceed 4000 mg. From patient 6 and onwards: The pre-study daily Duodopa dose will be delivered over a 16-h period and administered as a continuous fixed infusion rate preceded by a morning bolus dose. The morning bolus is 110% of the hourly continuous dose delivered at the rate of 40 ml/h. The morning dose will not exceed 15 mL, corresponding to 300 mg levodopa. The maximum daily dose levodopa is not allowed to exceed 4000mg.
