Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Change from baseline in PD diary measure of ON-time without troublesome dyskinesia, adjusted for a 16-hour waking day

Time frame
From baseline to Week 78

Secondary outcomes

1

Change from baseline in PD diary measure of OFF-time, adjusted for a 16-hour waking day

Time frame
