Anticipating Tomorrow: Tailoring Parkinson's Symptomatic Therapy Using Predictors of Outcome.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Although research into Parkinson's disease (PD) subtypes and outcome predictions has continued to advance, recommendations for using outcome prediction to guide current treatment decisions remain sparse.

Objectives

To provide expert opinion-based recommendations for individually tailored PD symptomatic treatment based on knowledge of risk prediction and subtypes.

Methods

Using a modified Delphi approach, members of the Movement Disorders Society (MDS) Task Force on PD subtypes generated a series of general recommendations around the question: "Using what you know about genetic/biological/clinical subtypes (or any individual-level predictors of outcome), what advice would you give for selecting symptomatic treatments for an individual patient now, based on w
