Small study probes brain chemical differences in genetic Parkinson's
NCT ID NCT07642908
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at how a specific gene change (LRRK2 mutation) affects brain chemicals in people with Parkinson's disease. Researchers will compare 15 participants with the mutation to others without it using brain scans, thinking tests, and movement tests. The goal is to better understand how this genetic form of Parkinson's differs from the more common type.
