Detailed Description:
A randomized, placebo controlled, fixed dose, parallel arm study of three doses of IPX066 versus placebo.
Approximately 350 subjects are equally randomized to receive one of 3 doses of IPX066, or matching placebo, orally.
Study duration is approximately 30 weeks for each subject.
The UPDRS is the primary outcome measure.

Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Able to understand and willing to voluntarily sign an informed consent form (ICF) and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) authorization or local equivalent if applicable.
- Diagnosed with idiopathic PD.
- LD-naïve: defined as subjects not exposed to LD or catechol-O-methyl transferase inhibitors for more than 30 days and the exposure is not within 4 weeks prior to study enrollment.
- If currently taking anticholinergic therapy, amantadine, or a monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B) inhibitor, maintains a stable regimen for at least 4 weeks prior to Baseline, and agrees to maintain the stable regimen throughout study participation.
- Agrees to use a medically acceptable method of contraception throughout the study and for 1 month after completing the study.
- Able and willing to comply with the protocol, including availability for all scheduled clinic visits and telephone calls.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Diagnosed with atypical Parkinsonism or any known secondary parkinsonian syndrome.
- Prior functional neurosurgical treatment for PD or if such procedures are anticipated during study participation.
- Use of nonselective MAO inhibitors.
- Use of dopamine agonists within 30 days prior to Screening.
- Unable to tolerate a placebo regimen, in the Investigator's opinion.
- Treatment of psychosis with any antipsychotic.
- History of seizure or epilepsy.
- Active or prior medical condition or prior surgical procedure that would interfere with LD absorption.
- History of narrow-angle glaucoma.
- Subjects with a history of malignant melanoma.
- History of myocardial infarction with residual atrial, nodal, or ventricular arrhythmias, upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage, or neuroleptic malignant syndrome.
- Received any investigational medications during the 30 days prior to Screening.
