Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
The Global Outcome Combined Information on Change From Baseline in Schwab England Activities of Daily Living, 39-Item Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire, Ambulatory Capacity, Symbol Digit Modalities, and Modified Rankin at 5 Years.
All outcomes were coded such that higher scores indicated worse outcomes. Patients were ranked on each outcome and their ranks were summed (summed-ranks). Higher summed ranks (range, 5-4775) indicate worse outcomes. The mean summed ranks were compared by treatment group by a global statistical test (GST).
Change from baseline to 5 YEARS
Study Arms (2)
Placebo
PLACEBO COMPARATORcreatine
ACTIVE COMPARATORInterventions
Creatine, a widely used dietary supplement is thought to improve exercise performance. In animal models and human studies, creatine has been shown to be well tolerated and may have some ability to protect brain cells. The study is comparing creatine 5 grams twice daily with placebo.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Willing and able to give informed consent and willing to commit to long-term follow-up
- PD (asymmetric features including slowness (bradykinesia) plus resting tremor and/or rigidity) within 5 years of diagnosis
- Treated/responsive to dopaminergic therapy (dopamine agonists or levodopa) for at least 90 days, but not more than 2 years.
You may not qualify if:
- Use of creatine 14 days prior to baseline or during the study
- History of known hypersensitivity or intolerability to creatine
- Any unstable or clinically significant condition that would impair the subject's ability to comply with long term study follow-up
- Other know or suspected causes of parkinsonism (e.g. metabolic, drug induced, etc.), or any significant features suggestive of a diagnosis of atypical parkinsonism.
