Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of the study is to assess the effects of rasagiline on cognitive functions in patient with Parkinson's disease. Patients on any dopaminergic medications will be assigned to receive rasagiline 1 mg or placebo over 3 months. Cognitive functions will be assessed by selected neuropsychological tests representing each cognitive domain.


Clinical Trial Description

The primary objective of this study is to assess the effects of rasagiline on cognitive deficits in non-demented patients with PD. The secondary objective is to assess affective changes in this patient population. This will be a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study in 1-3 centers. Patients will be recruited from the Movement Disorders Outpatients Clinic, Department of Neurology, Istanbul Faculty of Medicine, Dokuz Eylul University and Marmara University. Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to rasagiline 1 mg or placebo. Patients will be treated with the study medication over 3 months. Cognitive and behavioral assessments will be performed at baseline, at 4 weeks and at the end of the study, at 12 weeks. A total of 40 PD patients with cognitive deficits, but without dementia will be recruited. No sample size calculation will be performed, a sample of convenience will be used. ;
