Abstract

Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative condition with few treatments to slow or stop development. Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are intriguing therapeutic targets. This research examined the safety and effectiveness of a new Parkinson's disease medication targeting PPIs. Methods: After enrollment, 60 individuals were randomly assigned to the treatment and control groups. MDS-UPDRS Part III score change from baseline to week 12 was the main outcome measure. Secondary outcome measures were the Hoehn and Yahr scale, NMSS, and Montreal Cognitive Assessment. Study-wide adverse events were tracked. Results: Compared to the control group, the treatment group exhibited a substantial improvement in MDS-UPDRS Part III score (p < 0.001). Additionally, the therapy group showed substantial improvements in Hoehn and Yahr stage, NMSS score, and MoCA score compared to the control group (p < 0.001). No significant adverse effects were documented with the experimental medication. Conclusion: This research suggests that targeting PPIs may treat Parkinson's disease. No harmful side effects were detected with the experimental medication, which improved motor and non-motor symptoms in PD patients. These results require more study to determine the long-term safety and effectiveness of targeting PPIs in Parkinson's disease.
