This is a single-arm, longitudinal, observational study on the use of wearable sensors and digital health technology to measure fall frequency and motor, speech, and cognitive function in patients with PSP over the course of approximately one year. Participants will perform supervised remote assessments monthly and in-person assessments approximately every 6 months.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the feasibility of using wearable sensors and digital health technology to remotely monitor patients with possible or probable PSP.
Secondary objectives are to measure PSP progression using sensor-derived motor and tablet-derived speech and cognitive measures.
In brief, approximately 85 individuals with possible or probable PSP, probable Parkinson's disease, possible or probable Multiple System Atrophy, and healthy controls, will be enrolled at 4-5 sites in the U.S. and followed for one year. During the monitoring period for PSP and MSA participants (1 year), a wearable pendant sensor (PAMSys, BioSensics) will be used to monitor falls and physical activity (step counts) of all participants during activities of daily living (ADL). Parkinson's and healthy control participants will be seen once at baseline only. On a monthly basis, participants will have televideo conferences with the sites to perform supervised gait and balance tasks while wearing 3 LEGSys (BioSensics) sensors. Using a study-supplied tablet, participants will also perform cognitive tests including fluency, color trails and go-no-go tapping tests. Participants will undergo more extensive testing every 3 months including the PSPRS, MoCA, quality of life questionnaires and functional rating scales which will be performed remotely (virtually). Approximately 6 months participants will undergo an in-person PSPRS (to coincide with their clinic appointments).

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Primary feasibility outcome | Compliance will be calculated as the number of participants who wear their PAMSys pendant sensors at least 16 hours/day for at least 180 days and complete at least 80% of their scheduled monthly sensor and tablet derived motor, speech, and cognitive assessments through their 6 month visit. | 12 months |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Timed Up and Go (TUG) | The Timed Up and Go and other timed gait and balance tests will be performed while wearing LegSys sensors | 12 months |
| PSPRS | The Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Rating Scale will be administered remotely or in-person every 3 months. The PSPRS is a 28 item scale with a total score of 0-100 where lower scores are less affected. |
