This study provides important new insights into Parkinson\u2019s and paves the way for new avenues for clinical trials. Dr. Schlossmacher is a neurologist at The Ottawa Hospital and a member of the Parkinson Research Consortium. <a href=\"http:\/\/archiveparkinson.thedev.ca\/site\/c.kgLNIWODKpF\/b.6701857\/k.E554\/Study_provides_first_link_between_two_major_Parkinson8217s_genes.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Parkinson\u2019s genes<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recruitment is underway in Quebec City, Gatineau, Ottawa, London, Saskatoon and Edmonton<\/strong>, for 60 men and women between 35 and 75 years old who have been diagnosed with Parkinson\u2019s within the last two years, to participate in a phase II clinical trial to test the efficacy, safety and tolerability of CoganeTM (PYM50028) in treating early-stage Parkinson\u2019s. Cogane is a new compound that modulates proteins in the brain that help the survival, development and function of nerve cells. The research will study whether Cogane could slow down or modify the progression of Parkinson\u2019s. If successful, Cogane could represent a new approach to treating Parkinson\u2019s. The study, sponsored by Phytopharm plc in the United Kingdom, is recruiting 400 participants worldwide.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1723\" style=\"width: 110px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/parkinsonpost.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/03\/firstperson_boileau.gif\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1723\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1723\" title=\"Dr. Isabelle Boileau\" src=\"http:\/\/parkinsonpost.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/03\/firstperson_boileau.gif\" alt=\"Dr. Isabelle Boileau\" width=\"100\" height=\"157\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1723\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dr. Isabelle Boileau<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>At the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health in Toronto, clinical research scientist Dr. Isabelle Boileau<\/strong> is seeking 60 men and women with Parkinson\u2019s over the age of 40 in the Greater Toronto Area and surrounding communities who are taking levodopa (Sinemet or generic), to participate in a brain imaging study using PET scan and MRI to understand better the relationship between long-term levodopa treatment and treatment-induced side-effects.
