About this study

Official title: Non Motors Aspects in De Novo Parkinson's Disease: Clinical and Physiopathological Description; Dopamine Agonist Treatment Effects.

Clinical description and pathophysiological study of recently diagnosed untreated patients with Parkinson's Disease.

Effect of a dopamine agonist (rotigotine) on apathy in de novo patients with Parkinson disease: A controlled, randomized, double blind study.

Read the detailed description

This study aims to show the impact of a treatment with a D2/D3 receptor-specific dopamine agonist on the hypo-dopaminergic syndrome and quality of life of patients with de-novo Parkinson's disease.

The study consists of three parts:

  1. The first part consists of a detailed clinical description of these patients, focusing on neuropsychological symptoms. The objective is to describe patients with and without apathy and hypo-dopaminergic syndrome.
  2. From this population, a small number of patients with and without hypo-dopaminergic syndrome will be selected in order to compare serotoninergic and dopaminergic denervation by positron emission tomography (PET).
  3. In patients with hypo-dopaminergic syndrome the motivational effects of a dopamine agonist will be tested in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study.

We hypothesize a significant improvement of apathy in the rotigotine group versus placebo

Being tested
Rotigotine, Placebo

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Rotigotine in people with Parkinson Disease and Apathy, run by University Hospital, Grenoble 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 3 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Oct 2017. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

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?

Change of LARS (Lille Apathy Rating Scale) score in the rotigotine versus placebo group (time frame: 6 months). 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 26 Oct 2017.
