| Resumen: |
Apomorphine sublingual film (SL-APO) is an on-demand treatment for OFF episodes in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). To assess the long-term (≥ 3 years) safety/tolerability and efficacy of SL-APO. Methods: Study CTH-301 (http://www. clinicaltrials. gov NCT02542696; registered 2015-09-03) was a phase 3, multicentre, open-label study of SL-APO in PD patients with motor fluctuations, comprised of a dose-titration and long-term safety phase. All participants received SL-APO. The primary endpoint was safety/tolerability (treatment-emergent adverse events [TEAEs]) during the long-term safety phase. Efficacy assessments included the Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) part III (motor examination), assessed at weeks 24, 36 and 48 during the first year of the long-term safety phase. 496 patients were included and 120 (24. 2%) completed the long-term safety phase. Mean duration of SL-APO exposure was 294. 3 days. TEAEs related to study drug were experienced by 65. 3% of patients (most common: nausea [6. 0%], stomatitis [1. 8%], lip swelling [1. 8%], dizziness [1. 6%], oral mucosal erythema [1. 6%], mouth ulceration [1. 6%]). TEAEs leading to study drug withdrawal were experienced by 34. 0% of patients (most common: nausea [5. 4%], lip swelling [4. 5%], mouth ulceration [2. 6%], stomatitis [2. 3%]). A clinically meaningful reduction in MDS-UPDRS part III score was observed as soon as 15 min following administration of SL-APO, with peak effects observed approximately 30 min post-dose and sustained up to 90 min post-dose; results were consistent over 48 weeks. SL-APO was generally well tolerated and efficacious over the long term as an on-demand treatment for OFF episodes in patients with PD. |
