  • Device: Lab Assay for seven genetic variants for Parkinson's Disease
    Counseling provided to participant by site clinician/physician/genetic counselor.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Groups and Cohorts Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Prevalence of Parkinson's related genetic mutations in an convenience cohort [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    Identify people with Parkinson's who have genetic mutations to advance basic science and clinical research.

  2. Educating people with Parkinson's of their genetic mutation status through genetic testing and counseling [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    People who are informed of their genetic status may be empowered to learn more about their disease and participant in clinical research.


Biospecimen Retention:   Samples With DNA
Isolated DNA from buccal swab or whole blood.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Study Population 1: PWP (open for recruitment)

    1. Meet Movement Disorder Society (MDS) Clinical Diagnostic Criteria for Parkinson's Disease: probable diagnosis.
    2. Willingness to undergo genetic testing, and choose to be informed of genetic testing results for GBA, LRRK2 and 5 additional PD related genes (SNCA, VPS35, PRKN, PINK-1, PARK7).
    3. Capacity to give full informed consent in writing or electronically, and have read and signed the informed consent forms (ICFs) based on site clinician's determination.

Study Population 2: People at risk of developing PD (not open for recruitment)

1. Family members of Study Population 1 may be invited to participate in the study if confirmatory genetic testing is deemed necessary by the genetic testing laboratory.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Diagnosis of an atypical parkinsonian disorder (i.e., multiple system atrophy, progressive supranuclear palsy, dementia with Lewy bodies, corticobasal syndrome), including that due to medications, metabolic disorders, encephalitis, cerebrovascular disease, or normal pressure hydrocephalus.
  2. Individuals who have received a blood transfusion within the past 3 months.
  3. Individuals who have active hematologic malignancies such as lymphoma or leukemia.
  4. Individuals who have had a bone marrow transplant within the past 5 years.
  5. Under the age of 18
