The Added Benefit of Opicapone When Used Early in Parkinson's Disease Patients With Levodopa-Induced Motor Fluctuations: A Post-hoc Analysis of BIPARK-I and -II
Introduction: Opicapone (OPC) was efficacious in reducing OFF-time in two pivotal trials in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and end-of-dose motor fluctuations (BIPARK-I and -II). Post-hoc analyses of these trials evaluated the efficacy of OPC following pre-defined segmentation of the wid...
