Parkinson's Repository of Biosamples and Network Datasets (Tracking Parkinson's)

Completed
Conditions
Parkinson's Disease
Registration Number
NCT02881099
Lead Sponsor
South Glasgow University Hospitals NHS Trust
Brief Summary

Prospective observational study of Parkinson's disease with repeat clinical assessment and biobanking of blood samples.

Detailed Description

To identify genetic and biomarker factors which affect the expression of Parkinson's Disease.

Primary objective: To define the severity and rates of progression of clinical features of Parkinson's Disease.

Secondary objective: To relate clinical phenomenology of Parkinson's disease to genetic and biomarker changes.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Proportion of participants with Parkinson's who have gene mutations and variationsUp to 36 months

Genotyping for leucine rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2), Glucocerebrosidase (GBA) (all cases) and Parkin, Phosphatase and tensin homolog-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1)(onset\<50years)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Categorisation of subtypes of Parkinson's using cluster analysisAt 4 years

Clustering of motor and non-motor features measured using Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson's disease rating scale (MDS-UPDRS), Montréal cognitive assessment (MoCA), Non-motor symptom Scale (NMSS), Scale for outcomes in Parkinson's autonomic (SCOPA-AUT), Olfaction testing using University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test (UPSIT) or Sniffin' sticks, and Leeds anxiety and depression scale (LADS).

This will use sequential factor analysis of the results of the above assessments, followed established methods, firstly exploratory factor analysis and secondly confirmatory factor analysis. Factor scores and other clinically important variables will then be combined to construct a single dataset for carrying out the cluster analysis. Hierarchical clustering will then be applied, and models with between 2 and 5 clusters will be described and compared.

Proportion of cases with Parkinson's who have vascular comorbidity and risk factorsAt 4 years

Prior history of vascular events, or calculated using Quantification of Risk version 2 (QRISK2) vascular risk score
