The primary endpoint of the study is to identify a neurophysiological biomarker (absence of synaptic depotentiation at primary motor cortex , measured as change in the amplitude of motor evoked potentials recorded at the dorsal first interosseus muscle after administration of neurophysiological cTBS depotentiation protocol) as predictor of the development of Levodopa-induced dyskinesia in patients with Parkinson's disease.

| Alterations of synaptic depotentiation in primary motor cortex | Alterations of synaptic depotentiation in primary motor cortex will be measured as change in the amplitude of motor evoked potentials recorded at the dorsal first interosseus muscle after administration of depotentiation protocol of continuous theta burst stimulation. Alterations of synaptic depotentiation at the baseline evaluation will be compared between patients who will develop and patients who will not develop dyskinesias (assessed by Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale part III, range 0-112) during the follow-up. | 3 years |
