Summary
This early-phase study tested whether a drug called Leukine (Sargramostim) is safe for people with Parkinson's disease when taken for 36 months. Seven participants received a weight-based dose 5 days a week, with 2-day breaks. Researchers monitored side effects, immune system changes, and motor symptoms using exams and blood tests. The goal was to see if the drug could be tolerated long-term and improve immune function linked to Parkinson's.
