NCT ID NCT07163156

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only This study
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks at whether prolactin (a hormone) and certain inflammation markers in the blood are linked to how severe Parkinson's disease is. Researchers will measure these in 300 people with Parkinson's and compare them to standard disease severity scores. The goal is to find simple, non-invasive ways to monitor the disease over time.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward simple blood or saliva tests to help monitor Parkinson's progression.
What could go wrong
This is an early observational study, not a treatment trial. It may find no clear link, and results may not apply to all Parkinson's patients.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The study population will consist of at least 300 adult patients (≥18 years) diagnosed with idiopathic Parkinson's disease who are followed at the Neurology Department of Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University. Both male and postmenopausal female patients will be included. Participants must be clinically stable and able to undergo neurological evaluation, serum and salivary prolactin testing, and routine laboratory investigations. Patients with atypical or secondary parkinsonism, endocrine disorders affecting prolactin levels, active infection, chronic inflammatory disease, or malignancy will be excluded.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Anyone

Inclusion Criteria: * Age ≥ 18 years * Diagnosis of idiopathic Parkinson's disease confirmed by a neurologist * Both male and postmenopausal female patients * Patients able to provide informed consent * Clinically stable enough to undergo blood and saliva sampling, as well as neurological assessment Exclusion Criteria: * Premenopausal female patients * Patients with secondary or atypical parkinsonism (e.g., drug-induced, vascular, atypical parkinsonian syndromes) * Known endocrine disorders affecting prolactin levels (e.g., prolactinoma, pituitary adenoma, hypothyroidism) * Use of medications known to alter prolactin secretion (e.g., antipsychotics, dopamine antagonists, estrogen therapy) * History of other neurodegenerative diseases (e.g., Alzheimer's, Huntington's) * Presence of active infection, chronic inflammatory disease, or malignancy * Severe renal, hepatic, or cardiac failure * Inability to provide informed consent
