Summary

This study will evaluate safety foremost but also the distribution and initial effectiveness of infusion-enhanced, MRI-guided DBS for patients with medication-refractory, Parkinson's disease

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Men and women, age 30 years and older
  • Subjects with advanced PD who are scheduled for MRI-guided DBS surgery under general anesthesia
  • Subjects who are able and willing to give informed consent and able to attend clinic visits through 6 months
  • The target nucleus, GPi or STN, is visible on MRI so that it can be targeted for the study infusion and then for MRI-guided DBS

Exclusion Criteria

  • DBS surgery planned in the awake condition with microelectrode recordings and clinical testing
  • Spinal pathology not amenable to lumbar puncture
  • Subjects who have had deep brain stimulation or a prior stereotactic ablation of the basal ganglia
  • Legal incapacity or limited legal capacity as determined by the neuropsychologist
  • Are participating or have participated in another clinical trial in the last 30 days
  • Any illness that in the investigator's opinion preclude participation in this study.
