Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if Amitiza (lubiprostone), a drug proven to be safe and effective for chronic constipation, will also improve constipation symptoms in Parkinson's Disease patients. We will also evaluate the impact of the drug on changes in bowel movement consistency, quality of life and motor symptoms.

Primary Outcome

Global impression of change, stool diary, visual analog scale of improvement, UPDRS rating scale and constipation questionnaires. The primary efficacy data will be analyzed using Student's t-test with unequal variances as the difference from baseline in SBM comparing cases and controls, using last observation carried forward for missing data in the intent-to-treat population.
