Assess long term buntanetap safety

Trial ID
NCT07284784
Official Title
An Open-label Clinical Trial Investigating the Long-term Safety of Buntanetap in Treating Participants With Parkinson's Disease
Goal
Assess long term buntanetap safety
Phase
PHASE2, PHASE3
Status
RECRUITING
Sponsor
Annovis Bio Inc.
Study Type
INTERVENTIONAL
Enrollment
500 participants
Conditions
Parkinson's Disease (PD), Deep Brain Stimulation
Interventions
buntanetap/posiphen

Plain-Language Summary

The goal is to evaluate long-term safety of buntanetap as a way to lower brain levels of alpha-synuclein and other abnormal proteins that may drive Parkinson's progression. Buntanetap is an oral small molecule that works by reducing the production of those proteins at the mRNA translation step, it is not a dopamine replacement so people can generally continue levodopa and other standard Parkinson medicines while the trial watches for tolerability and side effects. The trial is looking for adults 40 to 85 with idiopathic Parkinson's at Hoehn and Yahr stages 1 to 3 in the ON state and an MMSE of 21 to 30, who either were in a prior buntanetap trial or have had successful deep brain stimulation for at least 12 months, and who can attend visits with a support person and meet the study safety and contraception requirements.
