Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

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.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 3

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
