Description

Summary

The Parkinson Progression Marker Initiative 2.0 (PPMI 2.0) is a longitudinal, observational, multi-center natural history study to assess progression of clinical features, digital outcomes, and imaging, biologic and genetic markers of Parkinson's disease (PD) progression in study participants with manifest PD, prodromal PD, and healthy controls

The overall goal of PPMI 2.0 is to identify markers of disease progression for use in clinical trials of therapies to reduce progression of PD disability.

Official Title

The Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI) 2.0 Clinical -Establishing a Deeply Phenotyped PD Cohort

Details

PPMI 2.0 is a broad program, expanding the goals of the original PPMI study (NCT01141023), that includes this PPMI 2.0 Clinical protocol, as well as the PPMI 2.0 Remote, PPMI 2.0 Digital Applications and PPMI 2.0 Online protocols. All participants in PPMI 2.0 will be asked to be enrolled in all PPMI 2.0 protocols, but depending on their method of recruitment, participants may be enrolled sequentially in varying order, as appropriate. PPMI 2.0 participants may also be asked to participate in additional PPMI 2.0 companion studies (as they are developed), which may only involve a subset of PPMI 2.0 participants based on their cohort designation and/or site location.
