Achtergrond van het onderzoek
Parkinson’s disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease, affecting approximately 1–2% of individuals aged 65 or over (de Rijk et al. 1997; Blin et al. 2015), and the prevalence is projected to increase substantially as the population ages (Dorsey et al. 2007). Currently approved treatments improve motor symptoms but do not address the underlying cause of the disease. there is a significant need for an effective disease-modifying therapy to prevent the progressive motor and non-motor disabilities not addressed by current therapies. LRRK2 mutations are an established cause of Parkinson’s disease, accounting for approximately 4–5% of familial Parkinson’s Disease. The current study aims to characterize several potential pharmacodynamic markers of LRRK2 kinase inhibition and patient stratification. In particular, since LRRK2 is present in peripheral as well as central compartments, the present study will examine these markers in the blood and CSF compartments, and markers will be characterized in terms of both intra- and inter- subject variability. Patients with Parkinson’s disease with LRRK2 mutations, patients with PD without LRRK2 mutations, and healthy matched subjects will be studied to assess differences in biomarker-based phenotypes between the groups, as well as intra-subject variability and intra-subject variability within groups. All patients and healthy volunteers will be recruited from the Netherlands
Doel van het onderzoek
LRRK2 activity is linked to central mechanisms of Parkinson’s disease pathology through its role in lysosomal function, and LRRK2 kinase inhibitors, such as DNL201 (IND Number: 133665) represent a new class of therapeutics with potential to address the underlying biology of Parkinson’s disease. In preparation for future clinical studies using LRRK2 kinase inhibitors currently in development, the current study aims to characterize several potential pharmacodynamic markers of LRRK2 kinase inhibition and patient stratification. In particular, since LRRK2 is present in peripheral as well as central compartments, the present study will examine these markers in the blood and CSF compartments, and markers will be characterized in terms of both intra- and inter- subject variability. Patients with Parkinson’s disease with LRRK2 mutations, patients with PD without LRRK2 mutations, and healthy matched subjects will be studied to assess differences in biomarker-based phenotypes between the groups, as well as intra-subject variability and inter-subject variability within groups.
