Overview

Brief Summary

This study aims at identifying potential new and innovative biomarkers in de novo Parkinson's disease patients. New finding will help phenotyping patients since the diagnosis of the disease and potentially also in the preclinical phase.

Detailed Description

The investigators will use 4 different approaches in parallel: 1. detailed clinical evaluation using the current available validated clinical scales and the Dopamine transporter (DAT) SPECT imaging; 2. anatomical and perfusional brain evaluation using functional MRI; 3. cortical brain mapping and transcranial magnetic stimulation assessment using a robotized approach; 4. emotional responses study using a novel paradigm. These 4 modalities will be assessed at baseline, 1 year and 2 years follow-up. The investigators will integrate these 4 analysis using a mathematical paradigm in order to define specific phenotype of disease and disease progression.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

To compare emotional, attentional and behavior differences between subject

Time Frame: In a seven months period after inclusion

Subjects will be asked to comment on different pictures (if the picture induces pleasure, sorrow or nothing; what would the subjects do). Attentional parameters will be recorded using the Eye tracker.

To compare brain structural differences between subjects

Time Frame: In a seven months period after inclusion

All subjects will have a 3 Tesla brain MRI to collect data concerning anatomy. All data will be compared between patients and controls. Brain MRI study will consist in having the following sequences: T1 and T2, Fast Gray Matter Acquisition T1 Inversion Recovery (FGATIR)

To compare brain perfusional differences between subjects

Time Frame: In a seven months period after inclusion

All subjects will have a 3 Tesla brain MRI to collect data concerning perfusion. All data will be compared between patients and controls. Brain MRI study will consist in having the following sequences: Pseudo-Continuous Arterial Spin Labeling (PCASL), T2 with gadolinium, FLAIR

To compare cortical excitability differences between subjects

Time Frame: In a seven months period after inclusion

The EEG data after transcranial magnetic stimulation testing will be compared between parkinsonian patients and controls

To compare brain connectivity differences between subjects

Time Frame: In a seven months period after inclusion

All subjects will have a 3 Tesla brain MRI to collect data concerning functional connectivity at rest. All data will be compared between patients and controls. Brain MRI study will consist in having the following sequences: Echo planar imaging (EPI) for the blood oxygen level-dependent effect

To compare emotional, attentional and behavior differences between subject with functional MRI

Time Frame: In a seven months period after inclusion

During a functional MRI study, subjects will be asked to comment on different pictures (if the picture induces pleasure, sorrow or nothing; what would the subjects do). Attentional parameters will be recorded using the Eye tracker.
