Do you have Parkinson’s disease with motor fluctuations?
We are still recruiting for an open-label study in subjects with Parkinson’s disease to evaluate the safety and tolerability of titration and continuous subcutaneous infusion of ABBV-951 for up to 4 weeks. The study is testing subcutaneous administration of levodopa for patients with motor fluctuations. It will deliver levodopa through a continuous infusion pump that is worn daily. Patients between ages 30-85 may qualify. If you are interested in participating in this study, please call our study nurse, Annette Robinson, at 502-540-3585 or email at annette.robinson@louisville.edu.
With best regards,
