Summary

Motor fluctuations are identified as the most challenging symptoms by parkinson disease patients. A recent post-hoc analysis of ADS-5012 trials (new formulation of ER Amantadine), revealed a significant improvement in OFF-time. No randomized clinical trial has ever specifically investigated to date the effect of amantadine IR on motor fluctuations. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of amantadine (300 mg/day) as add-on therapy for the treatment of motor fluctuations (Off-time) in advanced Parkinson's disease patients versus placebo after 3 months of treatment.

Conditions

  • Parkinson Disease (PD)

Interventions

DRUG

Amantadine (100mg) as add on therapy.

Amantadine will be administered at the dose of 100 mg t.i.d or b.i.d. (if t.i.d. is not tolerated) over 12 weeks, after a period of 3 weeks of titration.T he study treatment will be stopped after a dose decrease of 100 mg / day every 3 days.

DRUG

Placebo

Placebo tablets will be also administered b.i.d. or t.i.d over 12 weeks after a period of 3 weeks of titration. Placebo tablets will be indistinguishable from amantadine ones.
