Levodopa or L-Dopa is a chemical building-block that converts into a dopamine in body.
Dopamine is the chemical messenger released in brain. It mediates pleasure, cognition, and
memory functions. Nearly all patients receive the dopamine precursor levodopa, which
adequately control symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) at early stage of the disease.
Carbidopa is often included with levodopa-containing drugs in order to boost its efficacy by
slowing down the metabolism of dopamine.
Levodopa Market Driver
Development of novel formulations and efficient drug delivery methods for levodopa are
expected to drive growth of the levodopa market. For instance, a clinical study for gastric
retentive Accordion Pill, an immediate drug release formulation by Intec Pharma Ltd., is
ongoing in clinical phase III and is expected to complete in September 2018. Accordion Pill is a
Carbidopa/Levodopa (AP-CD/LD) combinational oral drug delivery system, which is designed
to improve the efficacy and safety of existing CD/LD drugs by utilizing an efficient gastric
retention and specific release mechanism.
Moreover, Impel NeuroPharma Inc. is conducting phase II clinical study for INP103, a drugdevice combination product containing a drug component, L-dopa, and device component I231
Precision Olfactory Delivery (POD) device. The study is expected to complete in November
2018.
Furthermore, advancement in diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD) progression is expected to
boost growth of levodopa market. For instance, a clinical study conducted by Washington
University School of Medicine, for measuring PD progression both by using Magnetic
Resonance Imaging (MRI) and by controlled dose of levodopa for discovering suitable
biomarker of PD is currently in clinical phase I and is expected to complete in February 2019.

On the basis of region, the global levodopa market is segmented into North America, Latin
America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa.
North America is expected to dominate the global levodopa market, owing to approval of new

approved an extended-release oral formulation of Levodopa/Carbidopa called Duopa,
manufactured by AbbVie Inc., in the U.S. market. Duopa is a gel formulation of
Carbidopa/Levodopa enteral suspension and is administered using a small, portable infusion
pump that delivers Carbidopa and Levodopa directly into the small intestine, which
continuously release over 16 hours in the body.
Europe region is expected to witness significant growth in levodopa market due to involvement
of key players for marketing novel formulations in European region. For instance, Acorda
Therapeutics, Inc., in March 2018, submitted a Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) to
the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for INBRIJA, an investigational inhaled levodopa
treatment for symptoms of OFF periods (OFF symptoms implies recurrence of symptoms such
as rigidity, and tremors after long period of levodopa use) in people with PD taking a
Carbidopa/Levodopa regimen.
Furthermore, in November 2015, Impax Laboratories, Inc. received European Commission
(EC) marketing authorization for NUMIENT (Levodopa and Carbidopa), a modified-release
oral capsule formulation for the symptomatic treatment of adult patients with Parkinson's
