A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of Molecular Hydrogen in Patients With Parkinson's Disease
A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of Molecular Hydrogen in Patients With Parkinson's Disease
This study is a placebo-controlled, double-blind trial that will investigate the safety and tolerability of molecular hydrogen, a promising antioxidant agent, in patients with early-stage Parkinson's Disease. The medication will be administered orally as 8 ounces of hydrogen-enriched drinking water twice a day over the course of one year.
This study will investigate the safety and tolerability of molecular hydrogen, a promising antioxidant agent, in patients with early-stage Parkinson's Disease. Subjects will be sequentially randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive hydrogen-enriched water or the corresponding placebo twice a day, in addition to all standard-of-care treatments. Enrollment goal is 70 subjects. Duration of therapy is 52 weeks.
The primary outcome measures are safety and tolerability of hydrogen-enriched water. Secondary outcome measures include: progression of motor symptoms, health-related quality of life, progression of cognitive decline, and progression of symptom burden.
