Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Sleep benefit (SB) is a prominent spontaneous, apparently unpredictable, transitory improvement in motor function reported by around 50% of patients affected by Parkinson's Disease (PD) after sleep and before taking their first dose of dopaminergic medications. The aim of this study is to test the hypothesis that objective and/or subjective improvement of motor function might be due to a carry-over effect of Rapid Eye Movements (REM) sleep at awakening from this sleep phase.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The "Awake \& Move" study is the second part of the Sleep, Awake \& Move project. This study will be conducted in a subgroup of unselected, consecutive patients having completed the part I of the Sleep, Awake \& Move project (i.e. the "Sleep \& Move" study). The investigators plan to explore the carry-over effect of REM sleep on motor function in a subgroup of PD subjects p. In this interventional study the investigators expect to induce SB by awakening the subjects from nocturnal REM sleep in a sleep laboratory setting, but not from Non-Rapid Eye Movements (NREM) sleep (control intervention).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

REM Sleep Awakening (REMSA)

The investigators will actively awaken each subject from nocturnal REM sleep in a sleep laboratory setting, in the hour preceding her/his habitual wake time.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

REMSA

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Awakening from REM sleep during the last hour of the sleep period

NREM Sleep Awakening (NREMSA)

Awakening from the NREM sleep stage N2 will be the control intervention.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

NREMSA

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Awakening from N2 (NREM) sleep during the last hour of the sleep period
