About this study
Official title: Effect of GOCOVRI on Quantity and Quality of Gait in Parkinson's Disease
The purpose of the study is to learn about the effect of GOCOVRI (Amantadine extended release) on activity levels and measures of gait and balance quality in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) and levodopa induced dyskinesia (LID) during daily activities using body-worn sensors.
Read the detailed description
Levodopa induced dyskinesia (LID) is a symptom of Parkinson's disease for which there are limited treatment options. LID leads to reduced quality of life, increased caregiver burden and an increased risk of falls (Rascol et al., 2015, Chapuis et al., 2005). GOCOVRI™ is an extended release capsule prescription medication shown to reduce LID in people with PD (Pahwa et al., 2017, Pahwa et al., 2018). However, a number of studies have identified an increase in falls in those on the active medication study arm but not the placebo arm (13% increase in active and 7% in placebo) (Pahwa et al., 2017). In order to understand this increase in falls, comprehensive measurements of quantity of activity (gait measured in the home environment) and quality of activity (comprehensive gait characteristics that may increase risk of falls) need to be assessed in participants taking GOCOVRI™. In addition, the evidence for the effect of GOCOVRI™ on gait and balance in PD is limited (Smulders et al., 2016).
This study is an open label study in which the following Aims will be studied:
Aim I: Investigate the effect of GOCOVRI™ on activity levels in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) and Levodopa induced dyskinesia (LID) Hypothesis I: We hypothesize that GOCOVRI™ will result in an increase of daily activity due to improvement in LID symptoms. Primary outcome measures: Total amount of activity per day
Aim II: Investigate the effect of GOCOVRI™ on comprehensive measures of gait and balance quality in people with PD with LID Hypothesis II: We hypothesize GOCOVRI™ may improve discrete characteristics of gait and balance that is evident even within the first hour of the day walking.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
GOCOVRIDrug
Participants will have gait and balance baseline assessment and then repeat assessment after being on full-dose of GOCOVRI for two weeks. The assessments will include measures of gait, balance and dyskinesia. Participants will also wear body-worn sensors (on wrist, feet and lumbar area) during daily-life for seven days to quantify mobility.
GOCOVRI will be started at 137mg/day for two weeks and then increased to 274mg/day for two weeks. Participants will repeat baseline assessments and then decrease to a dose of 137mg/day of GOCOVRI for one week, before stopping the medication completely.
All participants will receive GOCOVRI and they will know that they are on study drug. No placebo group.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| GOCOVRI Treatment | Experimental | All participants will have gait, balance, dyskinesia assessed before and after receiving GOCOVRI (274 mg/day). Receives: Drug: GOCOVRI |

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing GOCOVRI in people with Parkinson Disease, run by Oregon Health and Science University at 1 site in United States.
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 7 inclusion and 8 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 10 Oct 2024. 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 United States. 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. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.
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 10 Oct 2024). 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?
Aim I: Investigate the Effect of GOCOVRI™ on Activity Levels in People With Parkinson's Disease (PD) and Levodopa Induced Dyskinesia (LID) Measure: Number of Walking Bouts Per Hour (time frame: Baseline and on drug; one week of daily life monitoring at each time point). The study lists 5 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?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Oct 2024.
