NCT06193278

Brief Summary

Parkinsonian Syndromes (PDS) with predominant motor dysfunction include progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), multiple system atrophy (MSA) and corticobasal degeneration (CBD). Current treatment options for PDS are extremely limited due to the less understanding of disease pathophysiology and lack of therapeutic targets. Combining the results of previous studies and our group's previous research, sixty qualified PDS patients would be enrolled to conduct a prospective single-center randomized sham controlled clinical trial to verify the new therapeutic options that can improve symptoms and effectively slow the progression of the disease.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Group differences of part 3 of Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) changes

    Compare the changes in UPDRS scores from baseline to post- treatment in the three intervention groups (UPDRS part3: range 0\~72, higher score is related to a worse outcome).

    6 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (12)

  • Group differences of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Rating Scale (PSPRS)

    6 weeks

  • Group differences of Unified Multiple System Atrophy Rating Scale (UMSARS)

    6 weeks

  • Group differences of Cortical Basal ganglia Functional Scale (CBFS)

    6 weeks

  • Group differences of Berg Balance Scale (BBS) changes

    6 weeks

  • Group differences of Hamilton depression scale-17 (HAMD-17) changes

    6 weeks

  • +7 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (3)

muti-site stimulation group1

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The intervention period: 2 weeks muti-site: individual target (iTBS OR cTBS) / M1 (iTBS)

Device: Neuromodulation

single-site stimulation group2

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The intervention period: 2 weeks muti-site: individual target (sham) / M1 (iTBS)

Device: Neuromodulation

sham stimulation group3

SHAM COMPARATOR

The intervention period: 2 weeks muti-site: individual target (sham) / M1 (sham)

Device: Neuromodulation

Interventions

Noninvasive brain stimulation (NIBS) includes a variety of noninvasive neuromodulation techniques such as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), transcranial direct current stimulation (TDCS), and so on. Theta burst stimulation(TBS) is a new form of excitatory or inhibitory rTMS treatment that is less time-consuming and more effective than traditional rTMS in a single treatment session.
