37 Juvenile-onset Classification by age of onset Age of onset less than 21 years old Young-onset onset Age onset less than 40 years old but more than 21 years old
38 Mean age of onset 60 to 65 yr. 5-10% start below age of 40 yr. Incidence about : 100,000 in normal population in developed country Estimate >100,000 PD patients in Thailand
39 242 medical records were enrolled 224 were reviewed 18 were excluded due to incomplete data 174 medical records of IPD 50 medical records of other diagnosis Statistical analysis and reported Siriraj Parkinson's Disease Clinic Jan June 2002
40 Demographic data Sex: 98 males (56.3%) 76 females (43.7%) M : F = 1.29 : 1 Age of onset : y (mean 55.6 y) age > 40 yr = 82.3% age yr = 15.9% age < 20 yr = 1.8% (age < 40 yr = 17.7%)

42
43 Current concept in treating PD (continuous dopaminergic stimulation) Tonic and continuous dopaminergic stimulation occurs in normal circumstances
44 Pulsatile dopaminergic stimulation promote more dopaminergic cell lost (post synaptic change) resulting in development of motor fluctuation and dyskinesia (Mouradian MM. pathogenesis of dyskinesia in Parkinson s s Disease. Ann neurol 1989)
45 Lost of striatal dopamine receptor that occurs with disease progression results in a diminished capacity of these terminal to buffer in fluctuation in plasma levodopa Continuous delivery of dopaminergic agents can prevent or attenuate the development of dyskinesia
46 Motor complications associated with levodopa therapy include motor fluctuations and dyskinesia are particular problems in younger patients Less likely to occur in those whose symptoms begin after the age of 70 years (Golbe LI, neurology 1991, Quinn N, Mov Disord 1987)
47 overview History of Parkinson s s Disease Clinical manifestation of PD Etiology and secondary cause of Parkinsonism Classification Treatment : medical surgical (new in Thailand) Late complications (motor VS non-motor)
48 When to start treatment Determine whether the patients have functional impairment or not 1. Whether the symptoms effect the dominant or non- dominant hand 2. Whether the patient is employed or employable 3. The type of parkinsonian symptoms that are present (e.g. bradykinesia tends to be more disabling than tremor) 4. Individual patient sentiment 5. The philosophy of treating physician
49 Symptomatic treatment 1. Levodopa 2. Dopamine agonist 3. COMT inhibitor 4. MAO B inhibitor 5. Anticholinergic 6. Amantadine
50 Sites of action for two types of medical therapies to treat PD
51 Decision tree for early management of PD American Academy of Neurology, 2001 Olanow CW et al. Neurology. 2001:56(suppl 5):S4.
52 Levodopa Most effective symptomatically antiparkinsonian drug All PD patients respond Improves disability and prolongs capacity to maintain employment and independent activities of daily living improves mortality rate
53 Levodopa prolongs life expectancy and non-toxic to sunstantia nigra Percent Survival Control Group P = with treated group P < with control group Levodopa nontreated Group N = Years after 1 st presentation Levodopa treated Group N = 565 P < with control group Adapt from A.H. Rajput/ Parkinson and related Disorders 8 (2001)
54 Is Levodopa Toxic? Early patients develop motor fluctuations, but may be a function of neuronal cell loss Increased life expectancy with LD introduction LD-naive advanced PD patients develop fluctuations almost immediately with LD induction No LD neuronal dropout in laboratory animals Recent data suggest possible neuroprotection Some believe continuous infusion may be safer than pulsatile therapy
55 ELLDOPA study 360 never-treated PD patients randomized to placebo or carbidopa/levodopa (37.5/150, 75/300, 150/600 mg/day) No evidence that levodopa had any deleterious effect on disease progression and failed to support the notion of levodopa toxicity Levodopa is not harmful to SNc neuron in PD
56 Levodopa-Induced Dyskinesias Manifestation of excessive dopaminergic stimulation Typically late effect, and with higher doses Narrowing of therapeutic window Rare in LD-naive patients on DA monotherapy Most common is peak dose dyskinesia disappears with dose reduction Choreiform, ballistic and dystonic movements Most patients prefer some dyskinesias over the alternative of akinesia and rigidity
57 Levodopa/Carbidopa Formulations Onset Duration Immediate Release min 2-4 hr 10/100, 25/100, 25/250 Controlled Release min 3-6 hr 25/100, 50/200 Fast acting min hr (dissolved tablets)
58 Levodopa taking alone without DDC inh.. only 1 % reach the brain With DDC inh.. 10% reach the brain
59 Prospective, double blind trial in 618 levodopa-na naïve patients sustained-release Sinemet intermidiate-release release Sinemet After 5 years there is no difference in the prevalence of motor complications between two groups Similar result with Madopar HBS (Block G. Multicenter 5 years study.eur Neurol 1997)
60 Control-released released levodopa Indication Early morning akinesia Night time wearing off
61 Fast acting levodopa Madopar DT 125 Early morning dystonia or akinesia End of dose wearing off Dysphagia Faster onset, better absorption

67 Levodopa Overview (cont d) Levodopa induces motor complications 1-4 Up to 80% of Parkinson s disease patients suffer from motor fluctuations and dyskinesias after approximately 5 to 10 years of treatment with levodopa 4 50% to 75% of patients develop motor fluctuations 3 to 6 years after initiating therapy Fahn S.

70 Mechanism of developing dyskinesia Risk factors 1. Chronic exogenous exposure to dopaminergic drugs (mainly when given intermittently); dopamine receptor supersensitivity 2. Severe dopamine depletion resulting from nigrostriatal denervation 3. The required presence of anatomically intact striatal neurons
71 Dopamine Receptor Subtypes D1, D2 subcortical D3, D4, D5 cortical Differentiated biochemically & pharmacologically into two families: D1 family: D1, D5 D2 family: D2, D3, D4
72 Dopamine agonist (1) Ergotamine Bromocriptine PergolidePergolide LisurideLisuride ** Apomorpine Carbergoline
73 Dopamine agonist (2) Non ergotamine Ropinirole Pramipexole PiribedilPiribedil
74 Dopamine agonist (3) Reduced motor complication compare with levodopa Antiparkinsonian effect superior to placebo in early-stage PD Antiparkinsonian effect comparable to levodopa in early-stage PD Can use as monotherary up to several years
75 Dopamine agonist (4) Supplementation with levodopa provides clinical benefits comparable to levodopa alone but with reduced motor complications? Neuroprotective effects

85 Dopamine agonist Start low, go slow (gradually titrated over several weeks or months) Improved motor and ADL scores Decreases off time provided a levodopa sparing effect
86 Apomorphine (1) D1/D2 agonist Parenteral delivery (s.c., i.v., sublingual, intranasal, rectal) Rapid off period rescue 2-55 mg s.c.; pen injection systems
87 Apomorphine (2) Treatment of unpredictable, frequent motor fluctuations continuous s.c. infusion via mini-pump SE: nausea, vomiting, hypotension trimethobenzamide 250 mg t.i.d. domperidone 20 mg t.i.d.; not available in U.S.
88 COMT inhibitor No titration easy to administer Decreased off time, increased on time and enhanced motor responses in patients with levodopa motor fluctuation Improved motor and ADL scores in stable levodopa responders May reduce risk for motor complications if used from onset of levodopa therapy
89 COMT inhibitor Entacapone 200 mg with each dose of levodopa Talcapone mg tid Side effect ; discoloration of urine, increase dyskinesia, diarrhea
90 COMT inhibitor Increase plasma levodopa elimination half life by 50% and area under the curve by 75% without rising of either the maximal plasma concentration(cmax Cmax) or the time to reach maximal plasma concentration (Tmax)
91 Anticholinergics Dopaminergic depletion cholinergic overactivity Initially used in the 1950s Effective mainly for tremor (rigidity) Common agents (Start low, go slow): Trihexyphenidyl: : mg/day Benztropine: : mg/day
92 Anticholinergics Side effects: DryDry mouth, sedation, delirium, confusion, hallucinations, constipation, urinary retention, impaired cognition
93 Selegiline Irreversible MAO-B B inhibitor Clinically active by inhibiting dopamine metabolism in brain May be neuroprotective (DATATOP, SINDEPAR) Dosage: 5 mg at breakfast and lunch
94 Selegiline Side effects: insomnia, hallucinations, nausea (rarely), dyskinesia Potential interactions with tricyclics and SSRI antidepressants As adjunct to levodopa, provides reduced motor fluctuations and increased on time
95 DATATOP Follow-Up DATATOP: 3 year follow-up studies (Ann Neurol 1996) subjects requiring levodopa (n=352) selegiline made no difference with regard to disease severity, wearing-off or dyskinesias subjects not requiring levodopa (n=162) No difference in parkinsonian disability between the two groups 8 year follow-up (Ann Neurol 1998) No increase in mortality
96 overview History of Parkinson s s Disease Clinical manifestation of PD Etiology and secondary cause of Parkinsonism Classification Treatment : medical surgical (new in Thailand) Late complications: motor VS non-motor
97 Stages in Decline of Response to LD I: Patient not aware of effect of individual dose II: Mid-afternoon loss of benefit III: Loss of sleep benefit; early-morning akinesia, possible foot dystonia IV: Regular wearing off every 4 hours at first, shortens with time V: Frequent wearing off, abrupt on-off, off, unpredictable dose response
98 Late Complications Motor response fluctuations, dyskinesias, dystonia, freezing, falls Non-motor (Behavioral/neuropsychological) depression, sleep disorders, psychosis Autonomic orthostatic hypotension; hyperhidrosis, constipation, impotence, urinary incontinence or retention
99
100 LD Response Fluctuations Peripheral causes: delayed gastric emptying dietary protein short plasma half-life life Central causes: pulsatile delivery to striatal receptors impaired storage capacity alteration of DA receptors
101 Response Fluctuations: Treatment Increase LD dose Increase DCI dose Add dopamine agonist Add COMT inhibitor reduce LD liver function monitoring Apomorphine rescue
102 Peak Dose Dyskinesia or Dystonia Chorea more common than dystonia May be worse on more affected side May not be as disabling as akinesia/rigidity Dose adjustments, add-ons: reduce LD dose, increase dose frequency reduce LD, add DA, COMT inhibitor
103 Off-period Dystonia Appears when LD level is low, especially early AM w/ or w/o parkinsonism Dose adjustments, add-ons: more frequent LD dosing to avoid low plasma levels add DA, COMT inhibitor, MAO-B B inhibitor
104 Wearing Off Regular and predictable decline in response 2-42 hours after LD dose Most common motor fluctuation Dose adjustments, add-ons: change to LD-CR, or increase LD frequency reduce LD, add DA or COMT inhibitor
105 On-off Response Sudden and unpredictable off periods unrelated to dosing schedule One of the hardest features to manage Dose adjustments, add-ons: reduce LD, add DA
106 Other Motor Complications Diphasic dyskinesia dyskinesia at beginning and end of dose Dose adjustments, add-ons: add DA Drug failure late afternoon, probably related to poor gastric emptying or absorption liquid preparations; increase gastric motility; decrease dietary protein apomorphine rescue
107 Freezing and Falls Freezing motoric block; at initiation of gait, turning, narrow spaces use auditory, visual, proprioceptive cues Falls physical therapy evaluation cane, scooter, wheelchair may be necessary
108 Psychosis Features Vivid dreams/nightmares, disorientation, hallucinations, delusional thought Simplify medical regimen Stop unnecessary non-pd meds Stop: anticholinergic drugs, amantadine, selegiline, dopamine agonists, COMT inhibitors Change from CR to standard carbidopa/levodopa Try atypical antipsychotic agents Try low-potency traditional antipsychotic agents
109 Depression Reported in 30-90% of PD patients Difficult to discern from vegetative symptoms Requires inquiry into depression symptoms Usually responds quickly to medications Tricyclic agents Selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors If ECT needed, will transiently improve PD symptoms
110 Anxiety/Restlessness Primary anxiety disorder: treat with benzodiazepines Associated with off-periods or low-levodopa levodopa levels: adjust levodopa dosing Restless Leg Syndrome: benzodiazepines, narcotics, levodopa, dopamine agonists
111 Sleep Disorders (1) Insomnia careful history difficulty with sleep initiation: tricyclic agents, benzodiazepines, diphenhydramine, chloral hydrate treat depression REM-behavioral disorder: clonazepam
112 Sleep Disorders (2) Excessive daytime sleepiness Correct poor sleep at night Discontinue anticholinergics, amantadine Reduce dopamine agonist, levodopa dosages if possible selegiline; caffeine; methylphenidate mgs/d
113 Orthostatic Hypotension Light-headedness, headedness, dizziness, fatigue, shoulder or neck pain, blood pressure drops when standing Taper anti-hypertensive agents Taper non-pd drugs Increase salt intake Compression stockings Fludrocortisone ( mg/d) Midodrine ( mg/d)
114 Urinary Incontinence/Frequency Rule out urinary tract infection Bladder evaluation for detrusor hyperactivity oxybutinin 5-30 mg/d; propanthaline mg/d detrusor hypoactivity phenoxybenzamine; prazosin Urinary frequency avoid fluid pooling in feet DDAVP inhaler; tolterodine tartrate 2mg hs to 2mg tid
115 Sexual Dysfunction Medical screening depression, anxiety, iatrogenic causes Endocrinologic evaluation prolactin, testosterone, lutenizing hormone, thyroid screen Urologic evaluation yohimbine, sildenafil
116 Nausea Levodopa-related: take with meals, add carbidopa, add domperidone Other anti-pd medications: same. If no improvement: withdraw newest agent, re- initiate at minimal doses, slowly increase
117 Excessive Sweating Usually levodopa related, and may be seen at peak or trough dose drug levels reduce levodopa add dopamine agonist or COMT inhibitor add carbidopa add Beta-blocker
118 Surgical Treatment in Parkinson s s Disease Part 6 of 7
119 Surgical Treatments for Parkinson s s Disease Ablative thalamotomy pallidotomy Electrical stimulation VIM thalamus, globus pallidus internus, sub- thalamic nucleus Transplant autologous adrenal, human fetal, xenotransplants, genetically engineered transplants
120 Thalamotomy Significant improvement in contralateral tremor depends on correct placement Minimal improvement in other PD signs Bilateral procedures poorly tolerated AEs: bulbar, sensory and motor deficits, gait, surgical complications Gradually being replaced by thalamic DBS
121 Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) High frequency, pulsatile, bipolar electrical stimulation Stereotactically placed into target nucleus Can be activated and deactivated with an external magnet Exact physiology unknown, but higher frequencies mimic cellular ablation, not stimulation
122 Movement Disorder Surgery Siriraj Movement Disorder Group อภ ชาต พ ศาลพงศ กนกวรรณ บ ญญพ ส ฎฐ วรพรรณ เสนาณรงค น พนธ พวงวร นทร อรสา ชวาลภาฤทธ ไพร ช สายว ร ณพร ศร ณย น นทอาร น นทศ กด ท ศาว ภาค
123 VIM Thalamic DBS 80% reduction in contralateral arm and leg tremor Possible mild improvement in bradykinesia and rigidity No functional improvement (UPDRS part II), but significant improvement based upon global scores No effect: gait and bulbar symptoms AEs: bulbar, gait, paresthesia, surgical
124 Globus Pallidus internus DBS Effects tend to mimic those of pallidotomy Significant improvement in dyskinesia Moderate improvement in cardinal off signs No comparison between unilateral and bilateral Bilateral DBS may be better tolerated than bilateral pallidotomy AE: surgical complications
125 Bilateral Subthalamic DBS Bilateral placement appears to be superior to unilateral placement Theorized neuroprotective mechanism, but no clinical evidence supporting this AE: confusion and hallucinations, increased dyskinesia before medication adjustments, eyelid opening apraxia, weight gain, surgical complications
126 Patient Diary Data Subthalamic Nucleus Asleep 27% on with Dyskinesia 14% on time 23% off time 35% on with Dyskinesia 3% Asleep 33% off time 11% on time 53% on with Dyskinesia 2% Asleep 33% off time 12% Pre-Implant 6 Months 12 Months n = 39 n = 25 n = 12 on time 53% L-dopa equiv. = 1325 mg L-dopa equiv. = 1016 mg L-dopa equiv. = 988 mg Clinical Results
127 Subthalamic DBS All cardinal features of PD noted to improve in open label trials Off UPDRS improved 60% On UPDRS improved 10% Dyskinesia tends to improve but this is probably due to decreased levodopa dose

142 Current management in Young onset Parkinson s s Disease patients Start with Dopamine agonist Add levodopa when disability can not overcome by DA Add COMT inhibitor when developing motor fluctuations Consider start with anticholinergic or amantadine if tremor is the prominent symptom
143 Current management in Late onset Parkinson s s Disease patients Start with dopamine agonist if no contraindication and add on levodopa later Or start with levodopa when reaching dosage of mg add on dopamine agonist Considering COMT inhibitor when developing motor fluctuations? Start with triple combinations (L-dopa+ DDC+ COMT inhibitor) กล บส เมน หล ก
