Presentation Details:
Presentations include results from the ongoing pivotal Phase 3 multi-center, randomized, double-blind double-dummy (DBDD) BouNDless study evaluating the efficacy, safety and tolerability of investigational ND0612 in people with PD experiencing motor fluctuations, in addition to findings of a responder-analysis from the Phase 2b BeyoND long-term safety study assessing the efficacy of ND0612 in reducing OFF time in people with PD with motor fluctuations.
