New Treatment for Parkinson’s Disease

  • 12 years ago
Dr. David Samadi, top prostate cancer surgeon, discusses a promising new Parkinson’s Disease treatment, Prosavin, currently in trial in the U.K. By injecting a part of the virus bioengineered with enzymes, researchers are seeing the regeneration of parts of the brain and the creation of dopamine hormones. Patients in the trial have experienced improved motor skills and smoother body movements. Dr. Samadi is hopeful about what this new treatment could mean to the future of Parkinson’s disease and the potential to significantly reduce patients’ dependence on medication. The trials are in the very early stages and may not be seen in the U.S. for several more years.
