A Study to Compare Two Dose Strengths of CVT-301 (Levodopa Inhalation Powder) With an Oral Dose of Sinemet® (Carbidopa-levodopa) Tablets

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Parkinson Disease
Interventions
Drug: CVT-301 (Dose Level 1)
Drug: CVT-301 (Dose Level 2)
Drug: Sinemet®
Registration Number
NCT02812394
Lead Sponsor
Acorda Therapeutics
Brief Summary

This study will be an open-label, randomized, three-period cross-over pharmacokinetic evaluation of CVT-301 compared with the Reference Listed Drug (RLD), orally administered carbidopa/levodopa, in healthy volunteers.

Detailed Description

The primary objective is to determine the relative bioavailability of two CVT-301 (dose levels 1 and 2) capsules compared with the Reference Listed Drug (RLD) on a per milligram basis.
