Episode 45, “Path 2 Parkinson’s Prevention with Drs. Simuni and Wendelberger”
Episode 45 of "In the Interim…" highlights the Path to Prevention (P2P) platform trial, the first platform trial designed for a biologically defined prodromal Parkinson’s disease population.
Dr. Scott Berry is joined by Dr. Tanya Simuni (Northwestern) and Dr. Barbara Wendelberger (Berry Consultants) to discuss enrichment via alpha-synuclein pathology (CSF assay) and DAT-SPECT imaging, supporting early-stage targeted enrollment.
The trial features multiple regimens, primary biomarker (DAT-SPECT) and clinical (MDS-UPDRS III) endpoints, and a control structure with shared randomized placebo arms plus PPMI-based non-randomized comparators.
Discover how advanced platform methodology combined with an amazing natural history cohort move prevention trials forward in neurodegenerative disease.
