A Long-Term, Multicenter, Open-Label, Safety Study With a Flexible Dose Range of KW-6002 as Treatment for Parkinson's Disease in Patients With Motor Response Complications on Levodopa/Carbidopa Therapy
The primary objective of this study was to establish the long-term tolerability and safety
of istradefylline treatment in subjects with Parkinson's disease treated with
levodopa/carbidopa. In addition, treatment response and maintenance of response were
assessed.
of istradefylline treatment in subjects with Parkinson's disease treated with
levodopa/carbidopa. In addition, treatment response and maintenance of response were
assessed.
