Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is an open label, parallel group study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of a single dose of CVT-301 in smoking and non-smoking adults.

---|---|
Experimental: Adults who smoke Day -1, subjects begin pre-treatment of oral dose regimen of carbidopa every 8 hours. Day 1, subjects receive a final dose of carbidopa and 1 hour later, a single dose of CVT-301. |
Drug: CVT-301
Levodopa inhalation powder, will be supplied in capsules containing levodopa (l-dopa), designed to deliver to the lung using the CVT-301 inhaler.
Drug: Carbidopa
Administered orally according to the carbidopa dosing schedule.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Maximum observed plasma drug concentration (Cmax) [within 30 min prior to CVT-301 dose administration and specified time points up to 24 hours post-dose]
- Time to maximum observed plasma drug concentration (tmax) [within 30 min prior to CVT-301 dose administration and specified time points up to 24 hours post-dose]
- Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) [within 30 min prior to CVT-301 dose administration and specified time points up to 24 hours post-dose]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Change in pulmonary function [within 90 min prior to CVT-301 dose and at specified time points up to 24 hours post-dose]
Pulmonary function will be measured by spirometry using the guideline specified by the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III)
- Number of subjects with Adverse Events (AEs) including Serious AEs [up to 3 days]
