Brief Summary

This study will be conducted in subjects with established Parkinson's disease in 2 parts. Part A will examine the tolerability, safety, and pharmacokinetics of AZ-009 dose escalation ; and Part B will assess the tolerability, safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of AZ-009 compared with placebo in a crossover design

Detailed Description

This study will be conducted in subjects with established Parkinson's disease in 2 parts.

Part A will examine the tolerability, safety, and pharmacokinetics of daily doses of AZ-009 for 5 days followed by 3 doses on each of days 6 and 7 in dose escalation through 3 cohorts

Part B will assess the tolerability, safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of AZ-009 compared with placebo in subjects with established Parkinson's disease experiencing regular OFF episodes

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
A - Dose Proportionality of multi-dose inhaled apomorphine by Power Analysis of AUC6 days

Dose proportionality of inhaled Staccato apomorphine AUC across all 3 doses during Days 1-5 and multiple daily dosing (all 3 doses q 2 hr per day) on Day 6 using a power model \[regression of log(AUC) versus log(dose)\] in subjects with established Parkinson's disease

B1 - Effect on MDS-UPDRS in Parkinson's disease OFF periods2 days

Explore in a crossover design on consecutive days the pharmacodynamics of AZ-009 compared with placebo on the Movement Disorders Society Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) part III in subjects with established Parkinson's disease experiencing regular OFF episodes.

B2 - Effect on Physician Disease State Assessment in Parkinson's disease OFF periods2 days

Explore in a crossover design on consecutive days the pharmacodynamics of AZ-009 compared with placebo on the Physician Disease State Assessment in subjects with established Parkinson's disease experiencing regular OFF episodes.

B3 - Effect on Patient Assessment of ON/OFF in Parkinson's disease OFF periods2 days
