About this study
Official title: The Effect of BIA 9-1067 at Steady-state on the Levodopa Pharmacokinetics When Administered With Immediate-release 100/25 mg Levodopa/Carbidopa in Healthy Subjects
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of repeated dosing of once-daily 25, 50 and 75 mg opicapone (OPC, development code BIA 9-1067) on the levodopa pharmacokinetics (PK), in comparison to placebo and 200 mg entacapone (ENT).
Read the detailed description
This study was a single-centre, randomized, double-blind, gender-balanced, placebo-controlled study in 4 groups of 20 healthy subjects each (10 male and 10 female). The clinical part included a screening examination within 3 weeks before the first institutionalization, an ambulatory period of 11 days (from Day 1 evening to Day 11 evening), during which the subjects returned to the clinical unit every evening, followed by an institutionalization of 1.5 days (from Day 11 evening to Day 13 morning (i.e. 14 h after the third administration of levodopa/carbidopa). Then, a follow-up visit at 5 to 9 days after collection of the last PK blood sample (i.e. Day 13). The maximum total duration of the clinical study, including the 21-day screening period and the post-study follow-up, was expected to be about 39 to 43 days.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing BIA 9-1067, Entacapone and Levodopa/carbidopa in people with Parkinson's Disease (PD), run by Bial - Portela C S.A. at 1 site in France.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 17 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Sep 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Sep 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Cmax - Maximum Plasma Concentration of Levodopa (time frame: pre-first dose and at 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0 h post-first and -second levodopa/carbidopa administration, and at 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 8.0 and 14.0 h post-third levodopa/carbidopa administration). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
