Background summary
This is an open study assessing the long-term safety and utility of a new gastrostomy access port for use with Duodopa, in patients in whom a positive test of the clinical response was already conducted with Duodopa administered via a nasoduodenal tube. Only those PD patients are eligible for the T-Port system who on clinical grounds will be proposed to have Duodopa therapy.
Study objective
The primary objective of this test series will be to gain experience and provide long-term safety using a transcutaneous titanium port as an access port for gastrostomy (T-Port) in the context of Duodopa treatment of severely afflicted PD patients.
