Trial summary

Parkinson's Disease (PD) is often thought of as affecting movement only. In fact, most patients also experience psychiatric and cognitive symptoms, sometimes from the disease itself, and sometimes as a side-effect of PD medications. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Psychiatric and Cognitive Manifestations of Parkinson's Disease: A Prospective Cohort Study

Parkinson's Disease (PD) is often thought of as affecting movement only. In fact, most patients also experience psychiatric and cognitive symptoms, sometimes from the disease itself, and sometimes as a side-effect of PD medications. The goals of this study are to evaluate the causes, effects, and clinical correlates of psychiatric and cognitive symptoms in PD.

Read the detailed description

Parkinson's Disease (PD) is defined by the presence of motor symptoms, but in recent years there has been increasing recognition of non-motor manifestations, including anxiety, depression, and cognitive symptoms. In addition, PD medications have been shown to cause impulse control disorders, cognitive changes, and non-motor withdrawal symptoms (dopamine agonist withdrawal syndrome) when they are discontinued. The goals of this study are to test the hypothesis that the presence of psychiatric and cognitive symptoms are associated with greater self-perceived disability (out of proportion to objective deficits), increased utilization of healthcare resources, and decreased quality of life. In addition, we will examine the clinical correlates of these psychiatric symptoms. To test these hypotheses, we will screen PD patients for anxiety, depression, impulse control disorders, and dopamine agonist withdrawal syndrome, and compare cases and controls with regard to demographic characteristics, motor features of PD, disability, healthcare utilization, and quality of life.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Parkinson's Disease, run by NYU Langone Health at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 May 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Non-motor symptom progression (time frame: Chronic). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 May 2019.
