Yes, MJFF knows about this small trial, as do all of the other major funding organizations and most people in the PD community. Unfortunately, with all of the publicity this trial received, the research team has yet to secure funding to begin a larger, controlled, phase 2 study. I have heard any number of reasons for the lack of interest and $, but who knows what the truth really is.
