Continuous subcutaneous apomorphine infusion (CSAI)

Plain-Language Summary

The goal is to find out whether a person’s personality, psychological and social situation, plus biological factors, predict who will have a real improvement in quality of life after starting continuous subcutaneous apomorphine infusion. Apomorphine is a fast-acting dopamine agonist given continuously under the skin to provide steadier stimulation of dopamine receptors, often smoothing levodopa on/off swings and reducing off time; the study simply follows patients starting CSAI as part of usual care while measuring mood, personality, social supports and medical factors. They are enrolling people about 40 to 75 years old with Parkinson’s by UKPDSBB criteria who have motor fluctuations or disabling dyskinesia and are awaiting CSAI, excluding those with atypical parkinsonism, prior deep brain stimulation, certain psychiatric disorders, MoCA under 24, major medical problems, or legal guardianship.
