U.S., Jan. 30 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07376278) titled 'Predictors of Clinical Outcomes of Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease' on Jan. 22.
Brief Summary: The goal of this observational study is to identify factors in blood that are associated with response to deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery in patients with Parkinson's disease. The main questions it aims to answer are:
1. What factors in blood (proteins and RNA) are associated with good vs poor response to DBS?
2. Are these factors able to predict response to DBS?
3. How do these factors change before and after DBS?
Blood and leftover brain tissue (which spontaneously adhere to the surgical instruments) will be taken ...
