Study summary

The goal of this observational study is to investigate the ability of a mobility monitor to measure and predict outcomes in Parkinson's disease (PD). It is an extension of a previous study (the Mobilise-D Clinical Validation Study) and consists of an additional follow-up visit for PD participants and the recruitment of age matched control participants. The data will inform researchers about PD disease progression and normal changes in mobility associated with aging.

Read the detailed description

This study is an extension to the Mobilise-D project which aims to develop a real world digital assessment of mobility. This Extension Study will build on the work of the Clinical Validation Study (CVS) to extend the follow-up period of the Parkinson's disease (PD) cohort and to recruit an age matched control cohort. The additional data will for allow for modelling of disease progression in PD over a longer time period and inform on progression in normal ageing.

The Mobilise-D Extension Study is an observational cohort study taking place at five clinical sites across four different countries. The study will recruit up to 411 PD participants from the CVS PD cohort and 240 age and gender matched control participants.

The PD participants will attend a single follow-up visit 36 months after their initial CVS baseline visit. The control participants will attend a baseline visit and a 12-month follow-up visit. All study visits consist of the collection of descriptive, clinical, physical, neuropsychological data. Following each visit, participants are required to wear a body worn sensor for seven days continual monitoring.

A small sample of participants will be invited to take part in a semi-structured interview (Qualitative Sub Study) to better understand participants' experiences of PD symptoms and the impact they have on mobility. The investigators also want to know if the aspects of mobility that are being measured are relevant to people with PD. These interviews will take place face to face or remotely, depending on preference.

Study population

Control cohort participants will be identified through Public and Patient Networks and Engagement teams and banks of volunteers already known to clinical sites. Control individuals may also be relatives or friends of PD participants. PD cohort participants will be recruited from the Mobilise-D Clinical Validation Study.

Eligibility criteria

Control Cohort:

Inclusion Criteria:

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change in LLFDI in controls

    Change in the functional component score of the Late-Life Functional Disability Index (LLFDI) in control data. This assessment has 32 items, each with a scale from 5 (no difficulty) to 1 (unable to do). Raw scores are transformed into summary scores ranging from 0 (low level in ability) to 100 (high level of ability).

    Time frame: 12 months

  2. Change in LLFDI in PD

    Change in the functional component score of the Late-Life Functional Disability Index (LLFDI) in PD data. This assessment has 32 items, each with a scale from 5 (no difficulty) to 1 (unable to do). Raw scores are transformed into summary scores ranging from 0 (low level in ability) to 100 (high level of ability).

    Time frame: 36 months

  3. Change in fall frequency in PD

    Change in fall frequency (in previous 6 months) in PD data

    Time frame: 36 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Difference in Real Walking Speed

    Assess difference in Real Walking Speed between PD and control data as measured using a body worn sensor during a 7-day digital mobility assessment (DMA)

    Time frame: 36 months (PD) and 12 months (control)

  2. Fall frequency in controls

    Change in fall frequency (in previous 6 months) in control data

    Time frame: 12 months

  3. Ability of Real Walking Speed to detect change in PD severity

    Ability of Real Walking Speed (measured through digital mobility assessment) to detect change in PD disease severity as measured by the MDS Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS). This assessment has 32 items, each with a scale from 5 (no difficulty) to 1 (unable to do). Raw scores are transformed into summary scores ranging from 0 (low level in ability) to 100 (high level of ability).

    Time frame: 36 months

  4. Ability of Real Walking Speed to predict change in physical capacity

    Ability of Real Walking Speed (measured through digital mobility assessment) to detect change in physical capacity in PD and control data, as measured through the Late-Life Functional Disability Index (LLFDI). This assessment has 32 items, each with a scale from 5 (no difficulty) to 1 (unable to do). Raw scores are transformed into summary scores ranging from 0 (low level in ability) to 100 (high level of ability).

    Time frame: 36 months (PD) and 12 months (control)

  5. Ability of Real Walking Speed to predict change in PD severity

    Ability of Real Walking Speed (measured through digital mobility assessment) to predict change in PD disease severity as measured by the MDS Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS). This assessment has 32 items, each with a scale from 5 (no difficulty) to 1 (unable to do). Raw scores are transformed into summary scores ranging from 0 (low level in ability) to 100 (high level of ability).
