摘要
Background: Increasing levodopa (L-dopa)/dopa decarboxylase inhibitor (DDCI) daily dose or adding a catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) inhibitor to levodopa/DDCI therapy are strategies used to manage wearing-off symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. ObjectivesTo evaluate the COMT inhibitor opicapone versus an additional dose of levodopa to treat early wearing-off in PD patients. Methods: ADOPTION was a randomized, parallel-group, open-label, Phase 4 study conducted in Korea. At baseline, eligible patients were randomized (1:1) to opicapone 50 mg (n = 87) or L-dopa 100 mg (n = 81) (added to current L-dopa/DDCI therapy) for 4 weeks. The main efficacy endpoint was change from baseline to end of study in absolute off time. Other endpoints included changes in on time, in Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale and 8-item PD Questionnaire scores, and the Clinical and Patient Global Impression of Improvement/Change. Results: The adjusted mean in absolute off time was significantly greater for opicapone 50 mg than for L-dopa 100 mg (-62.1 vs. -16.7 minutes; P = 0.0015). Opicapone-treated patients also reported a greater reduction in the percentage of off time (P = 0.0015), a greater increase in absolute on time (P = 0.0338) and a greater increase in the percentage of on time (P = 0.0015). There were no significant differences in other secondary endpoints. The L-dopa equivalent daily dose was significantly higher in the opicapone group (750.9 vs. 690.0 mg; P = 0.0247), when a 0.5 conversion factor is applied. Conclusions: Opicapone 50 mg was more effective than an additional 100 mg L-dopa dose at decreasing off time in patients with PD and early wearing-off.
