Detection of A-synuclein Aggregate as Biomarker in Diagnosing Parkinson's Disease at Early Stage by Using Protein Misfolding Cyclic Amplification (PMCA)

NCT04536857 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The study will investigate the biomarker of a-synuclein aggregate in CSF detected by protein misfolding cyclic amplification (PMCA) and its sensitivity and specificity in diagnosing Parkinson's disease at H-Y stage I and disease duration less than 1 year, compared with that from age-matched controls without neurodegeneration, those with Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) as a disease control with a-synucleinopathy, and those with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) as a control with non-a-synucleinopathy neurodegeneration.

Biomarker assay

Biomarker assay will be used to quantify levels of misfolded alpha-synuclein aggregates in cerebrospinal fluid from patients with Parkinson's disease, multiple system atrophy, progressive superanuclear palsy and controls.
