Clinical Trial Summary

This is a multi-center, randomized, open-label, multi-center, randomized controlled study of 80 Parkinson's disease patients with gait and balance disorders in which 40 patients will be treated with serious games, in addition to their usual care, for 12 months and 40 patients will be treated with their usual care during this period. This study will be conducted in 4 centers, all of which are expert in the management of these patients.

After randomization, each patient in the "Intervention-Rehabilitation through Toap Run" group will have to complete 2 to 3 sessions per week at home with the serious game "TOAP RUN" using the Kinect® system for 1 year.

Description:

This is a multi-center, randomized, open-label, multi-center, randomized controlled study of 80 Parkinson's disease patients with gait and balance disorders in which 40 patients will be treated with serious games, in addition to their usual care, for 12 months and 40 patients will be treated with their usual care during this period. This study will be conducted in 4 centers, all of which are expert in the management of these patients.

After randomization, each patient in the "Intervention-Rehabilitation through Toap Run" group will have to complete 2 to 3 sessions per week at home with the serious game "TOAP RUN" using the Kinect® system for 1 year.

The primary endpoint is a medical-economic endpoint: the difference in incremental cost-utility ratio at 12 months between the 2 groups of patients. Costs will be assessed at inclusion, at the end of 6 and 12 months. Secondary endpoints include clinical and neurophysiological assessments, focusing on gait and balance disorders, as well as cognition and emotional state. An imaging study for patients included in the Paris-ICM center is also planned to study the effects of serious game rehabilitation on brain function.

Patients in both groups will be free to use SG at the end of the intervention.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	The incremental cost-utility ratio at 12 months for the management of patients with Parkinson's disease using therapeutic games	The result criterion is the additional cost in euros of a QALY gained. The QALY will be calculated from the utilities derived from the EuroQuality scale of life-5 dimensions EQ5D-3L.	at 12 months for the management of patients with Parkinson's disease using therapeutic games
Secondary	The frequency of falls	The frequency of falls will be measured using item 12 of the Freezing of gait questionnaire (FOG-Q), with falls being absent (score=0), very rare (about 1/year, score=1), rare (about 1/ month, score=2), frequent (about 1/week, score=3) or very frequent (every day or several falls per day, score=4).	Through study completion, an average of 24 months
Secondary	The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of Toap Run therapeutic gambling management compared to usual management.	The outcome criterion will be measured by the number of days of hospitalization at 12 and 24 months.	Through study completion, an average of 24 months
Secondary	Cost-effectiveness ratio of falls prevention	For the cost-effectiveness ratio of falls prevention, the clinical outcome criterion will be measured by the number of falls at 12 and 24 months.	Through study completion, an average of 24 months
Secondary	Criterion for the cost-utility ratio	The criterion for the cost-utility ratio at 24 months will be the QALY calculated from the utilities derived from the EuroQuality scale of life-5 dimensions EQ5D-3L.	Through study completion, an average of 24 months
Secondary	The budgetary impact of Toap Run	The budgetary impact of Toap Run in the management of Parkinson's patients will be measured by the resources directly consumed using the SNIIRAM/SNDS database (order of March 22, 2017 of the Public Health Code).	Through study completion, an average of 24 months
Secondary	Incidence of treatment on Patients' quality of life	Patients' quality of life will be assessed using the PDQ-39 scale, which is specific to Parkinson's disease.	Through study completion, an average of 24 months
