Could a simple skin punch help unlock Parkinson's progression?

NCT ID NCT06621602

Summary

This study is testing whether a small skin biopsy can measure a protein linked to Parkinson's disease. Researchers will follow 100 people with Parkinson's or a related sleep disorder for 18 months, taking skin samples and tracking their symptoms. The goal is to see if changes in this protein in the skin can serve as a reliable marker for how the disease is progressing over time.
