About this trial

Development of a central repository for PD-related genomic data for future research.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Study Population 1: PWP (open for recruitment)

Meet Movement Disorder Society (MDS) Clinical Diagnostic Criteria for Parkinson's Disease: probable diagnosis.

Willingness to undergo genetic testing, and choose to be informed of genetic testing results for GBA, LRRK2 and 5 additional PD related genes (SNCA, VPS35, PRKN, PINK-1, PARK7).

Capacity to give full informed consent in writing or electronically, and have read and signed the informed consent forms (ICFs) based on site clinician's determination.

Disqualifiers

Diagnosis of an atypical parkinsonian disorder (i.e., multiple system atrophy, progressive supranuclear palsy, dementia with Lewy bodies, corticobasal syndrome), including that due to medications, metabolic disorders, encephalitis, cerebrovascular disease, or normal pressure hydrocephalus.

Individuals who have received a blood transfusion within the past 3 months.

Individuals who have active hematologic malignancies such as lymphoma or leukemia.

Individuals who have had a bone marrow transplant within the past 5 years.

Trial population

Any person with probable diagnosis of Parkinson's disease according to the Movement Disorders Society criteria.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Prevalence of Parkinson's related genetic mutations in an convenience cohort

Identify people with Parkinson's who have genetic mutations to advance basic science and clinical research.

Time frame
6 months
2

Educating people with Parkinson's of their genetic mutation status through genetic testing and counseling

People who are informed of their genetic status may be empowered to learn more about their disease and participant in clinical research.

Time frame
6 months
