Levodopa Carbidopa Intestinal Gel in Advanced Parkinson's Disease: DUOGLOBE Final 3-Year Results.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG) improves motor and non-motor symptoms in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (aPD).

Objective

To present the final 36-month efficacy and safety results from DUOGLOBE (DUOdopa/Duopa in Patients with Advanced Parkinson's Disease - a GLobal OBservational Study Evaluating Long-Term Effectiveness; NCT02611713).

Methods

DUOGLOBE was an international, prospective, long-term, real-world, observational study of patients with aPD initiating LCIG in routine clinical care. The primary endpoint was change in patient-reported "Off" time to Month 36. Safety was assessed by monitoring serious adverse events (SAEs).

Results

Significant improvements in "Off" time were maintained over 3 years (mean [SD]: -3.3 hours [3.7]; p < 0.001). There were significant improvements to Month 36 in total scores of the Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (-5.9 [23.7]; p = 0.044), Non-Motor Symptoms Scale (-14.3 [40.5]; p = 0.002), Parkinson's Disease Sleep Scale-2 (-5.8 [12.9]; p < 0.001), and Epworth Sleepiness Scale (-1.8 [6.0]; p = 0.008). Health-related quality of life and caregiver burden significantly improved through Months 24 and 30, respectively (Month 24, 8-item Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire Summary Index, -6.0 [22.5]; p = 0.006; Month 30, Modified Caregiver Strain Index, -2.3 [7.6]; p = 0.026). Safety was consistent with the well-established LCIG profile (SAEs: 54.9% of patients; discontinuations: 54.4%; discontinuations due to an adverse event: 27.2%). Of 106 study discontinuations, 32 patients (30.2%) continued LCIG outside the study.

Conclusion

DUOGLOBE demonstrates real-world, long-term, reductions in motor and non-motor symptoms in patients with aPD treated with LCIG.

Project description:ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to assess the effect of levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel (carbidopa-levodopa enteral suspension) in advanced Parkinson's disease patients with troublesome dyskinesia.MethodsPost hoc analyses of patient data from a 12-week, randomized, double-blind study and a 54-week open-label study were performed. Efficacy was assessed in the subgroup of patients defined by ≥1 hour of "on" time with troublesome dyskinesia at baseline as recorded in Parkinson's disease symptom diaries (double blind: n = 11 levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel, n = 12 oral levodopa-carbidopa; open label: n = 144 levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel). The changes in "off" time, "on" time with and without troublesome dyskinesia, and the overall safety and tolerability of levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel were analyzed.ResultsAlthough not significantly different from oral levodopa treatment (P > .05) in the double-blind study, levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel treatment resulted in a reduction from baseline in "on" time with troublesome dyskinesia (mean [standard deviation] hours: baseline = 3.1 [1.7], change from baseline to final = -1.8 [1.8], P = .014), increase in "on" time without troublesome dyskinesia (baseline = 7.4 [2.2], change = 4.4 [3.6], P = .004), and decrease in "off" time (baseline = 5.5 [1.3], change = -2.7 [2.8], P = .015). Similar trends were found in the open-label study. An increase in levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel dose was not significantly correlated with increased "on" time with troublesome dyskinesia in either study (double blind: r = -.073, P = .842; open label: r = -0.001, P = .992). Adverse events were usually mild to moderate in severity and related to the gastrointestinal procedure.ConclusionOur exploratory analyses suggest that optimizing levodopa delivery with levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel may reduce troublesome dyskinesia in advanced Parkinson's disease.

Project description:Levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG) has shown to be efficacious in motor and non-motor symptoms (NMS). Nevertheless, studies with patient Quality of Life (QoL) as a primary endpoint are scarce. To assess the effect of LCIG on Advanced Parkinson's Disease (APD) patients QoL. Secondarily, the impact on motor symptoms and NMS, emotional well-being, treatment satisfaction, and caregiver QoL, stress, disease burden, anxiety, depression, and work impairment were also investigated. In this prospective, 6-month multicenter postmarketing observational study, LCIG was administered to 59 patients with APD. Endpoints were assessed using validated scales and questionnaires. LCIG significantly improved patient QoL (PDQ-39 mean change ± standard deviation from baseline, -12.8 ± 14.6; P < 0.0001), motor symptoms (UPDRS-III in "On," -6.5 ± 11.8; P = 0.0002), NMS (NMSS, -35.7 ± 31.1; P < 0.0001), mood (Norris/Bond-Lader VAS, -6.6 ± 21.1; P = 0.0297), fatigue (PFS-16, -0.6 ± 1.0; P = 0.0003), depression (BDI-II, -5.1 ± 9.4; P = 0.0002), anxiety (BAI, -6.2 ± 9.6; P < 0.0001), and patient treatment satisfaction (SATMED-Q, 16.1 ± 16.8; P < 0.0001). There were significant correlations between the change from baseline to 6 months between PDQ-39 and UPDRS-IV, NMSS, BAI, BDI-II, AS, and PFS-16 scores, and Norris/Bond-Lader alertness/sedation factor. Caregiver anxiety also improved (Goldberg anxiety scale, -1.1 ± 1.0; P = 0.0234), but the clinical relevance of this finding is questionable. The serious adverse events reported were similar to those previously described for LCIG. In patients with APD, LCIG improves QoL, motor symptoms and NMS, emotional well-being, and satisfaction with the treatment. Improvement in patient QoL is associated with improvements in motor complications, NMS, anxiety, depression, apathy and fatigue. Improvements in patients' QoL does not correspond with improvements in caregivers' QoL or burden.
