Summary For Families

The trial is testing whether giving the drug prasinezumab through a vein can help people with early-stage Parkinson's disease who are already taking levodopa, by measuring whether it works, whether it is safe, and how the body handles the drug. Participants are randomly assigned to receive intravenous prasinezumab or a matching placebo, and neither they nor the study staff know who gets which, while they continue their regular levodopa-only treatment. The study seeks adults 50 to 85 years old with early Parkinson's not caused by another condition, with mild disease (stage 1 or 2 when off medication) and within certain weight and body mass ranges; people who are pregnant, have other significant neurologic diseases or other parkinsonian syndromes, or have uncontrolled high blood pressure are excluded.
