Impact of Istradefylline on Levodopa Dose Escalation in Parkinson’s Disease: ISTRA ADJUST PD Study, a Multicenter, Open-Label, Randomized, Parallel-Group Controlled Study

Abstract Introduction A higher levodopa dose is a risk factor for motor complications in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Istradefylline (IST) is used as adjunctive treatment to levodopa in PD patients with off episodes, but its impact on levodopa dose titration remains unclear. The objective of this study...
