Continuous Subcutaneous Foslevodopa/Foscarbidopa in Advanced Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Background Continuous subcutaneous foslevodopa/foscarbidopa (LDp/CDp) provides 24‐h delivery of levodopa‐carbidopa prodrugs for advanced Parkinson's disease. Real‐world 1‐year European data remain limited. Objectives To characterize 1‐year changes in motor, non‐motor, autonomic, quality‐of‐life and sleep outcomes, and in concomitant therapy ...
