Detect Parkinson using breath microbiome

Trial ID
NCT06453226
Official Title
PArkinson's Non-Invasive Volatile ORganic Compound Analysis and Microbiome Assessment (PANORAMA) Study
Goal
Detect Parkinson using breath microbiome
Status
RECRUITING
Sponsor
Imperial College London
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
120 participants
Conditions
Parkinson Disease

Plain-Language Summary

PANORAMA aims to find noninvasive signals in breath and stool that could help detect or track Parkinson's by spotting volatile organic compounds and gut microbiome patterns linked to the disease. The approach is to collect breath samples to measure volatile organic compounds, which are metabolic byproducts from the body and microbes that can change with illness, and stool samples for microbiome sequencing to see how bacterial communities differ in Parkinson's; no drugs or treatments are given. The study is enrolling adults 18 to 90, both people with confirmed or suspected Parkinson's who are having neurological assessment and healthy volunteers including partners or carers, and participants must be off antibiotics or probiotics for at least four weeks, have no diagnosed dysbiotic conditions, and be able to consent.
