简要总结
This clinical trial focus on the delivery of Cerezyme® in Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients using MR-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) induced opening of the blood-brain barrier (BBB).
详细描述
Leveraging the preclinical evidence and clinical experience with MRgFUS BBB opening in human subjects, the investigators propose a phase I open-label study to determine the safety and feasibility of three biweekly delivery of Cerezyme® (an analogue of the human enzyme beta-glucocerebrosidase) via MRgFUS induced BBB opening to unilateral putamen in PD. The putamen contains terminals of dopaminergic neurons from the substantia nigra, and is a critically affected brain region in PD. The primary objective is to determine the feasibility of repeated MRgFUS BBB opening for Cerezyme delivery in unilateral putamen. The secondary objective is to describe the safety and tolerability of the procedure. Another objective is to measure changes in PD relevant clinical scores and Cerezyme relevant biomarkers in the study.

研究组 & 干预措施
Open label single arm
Using Exablate Model 4000 Type-2 to temporarily disrupt the blood brain barrier to deliver Cerezyme in patients with Parkinson's Disease.
干预措施: Exablate BBBD with Cerezyme (Device)
结局指标
主要结局
Contrast enhancement on MR imaging
时间窗: Immediately after MRgFUS BBBD procedure
MRgFUS BBB Opening will be determined qualitatively by contrast enhancement in the sonicated putamen on T1-weighted with gadolinium MRI, and quantitatively by the change in intensity relative to contralateral unsonicated putamen immediately after MRgFUS BBBD procedure.
次要结局
- Safety --Adverse events(Through study completion, an average of 3 months)
