About this study

Official title: Recherche et Mesure d'Anomalies précoces de la Marche au Cours Des Troubles du Comportement en Sommeil Paradoxal Idiopathiques

Many people with idiopathic rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (RBD) have an underlying synucleinopathy, the most common of which are Parkinson's disease (PD) and Lewy body disease. Identifying additional abnormal clinical features may help in identifying those at greater risk of evolving to a more severe syndrome. Because gait disorders are common in the synucleinopathies, early abnormalities in gait in those with RBD could help in identifying those at increased risk of developing overt parkinsonism and/or cognitive impairment.

The investigators aim to identify subtle gait abnormalities in idiopathic RBD and to identify sensitive and early biomarkers:

  1. to detect subtle gait disorders in pre-symptomatic stage of synucleinopathy and
  2. to track their evolution in the parallel with the disease progression.

Main objective: In comparison with age and gender matched-controls, to identify in patients with RBD a larger reduction of gait velocity (and other abnormalities of spatio-temporal characteristics of gait) between a single (gait) and a dual-task (gait+cognitive task).

Secondary objective:

  1. In comparison with age and gender matched-PD patients, to identify in patients with RBD a smaller reduction of gait velocity (and other abnormalities of spatio-temporal characteristics of gait) between a single (gait) and a dual-task (gait+cognitive task).
  2. In patients with RBD to identify correlations between the spatio-temporal characteristics modifications of gait between a single (gait) and a dual-task (gait+cognitive task) and the percentage of REM without atonia - the dopamine transporter (DAT) density using FP-CIT single-photon emission computed tomography; the reduction of the olfactory discrimination and thresholds.
  3. In patients with RBD to track the spatio-temporal characteristics evolution of gait over time (every 6 months for 2 years)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing FP-CIT single-photon emission computed tomography, neuropsychological evaluation and Gait recording with sensors in people with Parkinson's Disease and REM Sleep Behavior Disorder, run by University Hospital, Montpellier at 1 site in France.

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 2 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Dec 2021. 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 France. 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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

gait velocity (time frame: Month 24). 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 23 Dec 2021.
