NCT01005030

Brief Summary

The primary objective of the study is to determine the utility of blood plasma infrared spectroscopy (biospectroscopy) in distinguishing subjects with idiopathic Parkinson's disease from healthy controls.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The primary outcome of the study is the correct classification of cases of PD and controls. This will be quantified as sensitivity and specificity.

    Baseline and annually for two years

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Determine impact of disease stage, age, gender, medications, cognitive scores, other laboratory measures (e.g. alpha-synuclein) and other clinical/demographic variables on plasma biospectra.

    Baseline and annually for two years

  • Correlate plasma biospectra with dopamine transporter neuroimaging data.

    Baseline and annually for two years

Study Arms (2)

PostCEPT Subjects

Subjects with current Parkinson Disease Diagnosis currently enrolled in PostCEPT study

Other: Blood draw

Control Subjects

Non-blood relatives of PostCEPT Subjects matched for age and other demographics

Other: Blood draw

Interventions

Blood draw, two tubes, used for isolation of cell-free blood plasma

Control SubjectsPostCEPT Subjects

You may qualify if:

  • PD Subjects:
  • PostCEPT subjects with a diagnosis of PD based on UK Brain Bank criteria.
  • Willing and able to provide informed consent.
  • Healthy Controls:
  • No current diagnosis or known history of a neurological disease/disorder.
  • Non-blood relative of a patient or subject at the site who has diagnosis of PD (may include healthy controls from the PROBE study).
  • No first degree relatives with diagnosis of PD
